PROJECT AWARE
CORAL REEF CONSERVATION

Everyone likes to scuba dive or snorkel in warm, clear water on a vibrant coral reef, yet many people know little about what they’re seeing or their value.

This course helps you appreciate the complexity of these habitats and teaches you how you can help conserve these vital systems.

PROJECT AWARE
SPECIALIST

The Project AWARE Specialty Course focuses and expands on the 10 Tips for Divers to Protect the Ocean Planet.

Learn how you can make a difference for ocean protection every time you dive or travel. A dry, ‘fins off’ course, this specialty is ideal for divers and nondivers alike!

FISH
IDENTIFICATION

Our Pacific Northwest Fish ID Course will give you an in-depth look at fish and invertebrates in our local waters.

You'll learn how to conduct fish surveys, and how to identify characteristics of common fish families and invertebrate groups.

PADI EQUIPMENT
SPECIALTY

Learn to manage basic scuba diving equipment repairs and adjustments.

You'll gain a better understanding of routine care and maintenance procedures and how dive gear works.

PADI NITROX
SPECIALTY

The most popular PADI specialty course. Scuba diving with enriched air nitrox gives you more no decompression time, especially on repetitive scuba dives.

UNDERWATER
PHOTOGRAPHY

Learn basic principles of composition, how to prevent backscatter, and the best ways to photograph different types of marine life, divers, and underwater seascapes. You’ll also learn editing techniques, and how a little pre-planning can help create a story.

PADI PEAK PERFORMANCE BUOYANCY SPECIALTY

Observe aquatic life without disturbing their surroundings. Improve the buoyancy skills you learned as a new diver and elevate them to the next level.

PADI DRYSUIT
SPECIALTY

Becoming a dry suit diver allows you to expand your boundaries and dive more places, more often. This suit seals you off from the water & keeps you comfortable, even in cold water!

PADI DEEP DIVER
SPECIALTY

Explore deeper dive sites with confidence at depths down to 40 metres/130 ft. Learn to manage your gas supply, go over buddy contact procedures, and buoyancy control.

PADI NAVIGATION SPECIALTY

Learn to use your compass and be the scuba diver everyone wants to follow because you know where you are and where you’re going!

PADI SEARCH & RECOVERY SPECIALTY

Retrieve lost items that have fallen overboard or over a dock. Learn effective swimming patterns and using a lift bag for heavy objects.

PADI SELF RELIANT SPECIALTY

Develop self-reliance and independence while diving. Learning to carry out dives without a partner can make you a stronger diver in most dive situations.

PADI WRECK
SPECIALTY

Ships, airplanes and even cars are fascinating to explore and usually teem with aquatic life. Each wreck dive offers a chance for a new discovery.

PADI SIDEMOUNT SPECIALTY

Sidemount involves carrying tanks on either side of a diver, not on their back. It is becoming very popular today in sport, technical and cave diving applications.
