            Search & Recovery Diver

            $150.00

            It happens: People accidentally drop things from docks, off boats or even while scuba diving. If you’ve ever lost something in the water and wanted to go find it, then the Search and Recovery Diver Specialty course is for you. There are effective ways to search for objects underwater that increase your chances of success. And there are good and better methods to bring up small, large or just awkward items. Search and recovery can be challenging, but a whole lot of fun.

            (Junior) Advanced Open Water Divers who are at least 12 years old can enroll in the Search and Recover Diver course. (Junior) Open Water Divers with a Underwater Navigator certification also qualify.

            Course materials required.

            Product Description

            What will you learn?

            Gathering information and resources, then carefully planning a search are the first important steps you learn. During four scuba dives you’ll practice:

            • Swimming search patterns using your compass and natural navigation.
            • Locating large and small objects using various search patterns.
            • Using a lift bag for large or heavy objects, plus other recovery methods.
            • Planning a search operation based on facts gathered about a lost object prior to the dive.

            Also, the first dive of this Specialty Diver course may credit as an Adventure Dive toward your Advanced Open Water Diver certification – ask your instructor about earning credit.

            How can you start learning now?

            Visit our dive shop to enroll in the course and get a Search and Recovery Crew-Pak that includes your manual and video. By studying before class, you’ll be better prepared to start practicing your search and recovery skills when you meet with your instructor.

            What scuba gear will you use?

            Besides your basic scuba equipment, you’ll need a compass and underwater slate. Your Instructor may suggest other gear that may help with your searches, such as a dive light, marker buoys, lines and reels.

              $100.00 – $159.99

            • Ice Diver

              $100.00 – $399.00

              If extreme, unusual and challenging scuba diving scenarios appeal to you, try diving under the ice. Ice diving is one of the most adventurous scuba specialties because you confront conditions and see beauty few others ever experience. Plus, you might get a chance to play with your exhaled bubbles on the bottom of the ice. Flash your Ice Diver certification card to get instant respect, and usually a lot of questions from other divers about what it’s like under the ice.

              You need to be an Advanced Open Water Diver who is at least 18 years old to enroll in the Ice Diver course. Six divers minimum required for safety reasons.

You’ll also learn more about how your gear works, making you more comfortable with it and better prepared to take care of your investment.

              If you’re at least 10 years old and certified as a (Junior) Scuba Diver or higher, you can enroll in the Equipment Specialist course.

            • Refresher Course

              Boat Diver

              $100.00

              Much of the world’s best scuba diving is accessible only by boat. Whether you’ve never made a boat dive or you’ve logged dozens, the Boat Diver Specialty course will benefit you because boats in various parts of the world do things differently. Scuba diving from a boat is fun and relatively easy because you usually descend directly onto your dive site.

              If you’re a (Junior) Open Water Diver who is at least 10 years old, you can enroll in the Boat Diver course.

              Course materials required. Boat charter extra.
