                                                Be the diver everyone wants to follow and make your sense of direction legendary with the PADI Underwater Navigator Specialty course.


                                                When everyone’s buzzing about a reef or checking out a wreck, they’re having a great time – until it’s time to go. Then they turn to you, because as a PADI Underwater Navigator, you know the way back to the boat.

                                                What You Learn

                                                Underwater navigation can be challenging, but in the PADI Underwater Navigator Specialty course, you master the challenge. You learn the tools of the trade, including navigation via natural clues and by compass.

                                                Over three open water dives you learn:
                                                • Navigation patterns
                                                • Natural navigation (without a compass)
                                                • Compass navigation
                                                • How to “mark” or relocate a submerged object or position from the surface
                                                • Underwater map making
                                                • How to follow irregular courses with the Nav-Finder
                                                • Dive site relocation
                                                • How to estimate distance underwater
                                                What do I need?

                                                Accurate navigation is based on thoughtful preparation. With that in mind the included PADI Navigation crewpak includes everything needed to complete the Underwater Navigation specialty.   As a Navigator you'll probably want to practice with and use your own compass!

                                                You need to be:
                                                • A PADI Open Water Diver or Junior Open Water Diver (or qualifying certification from  another organisation)
                                                • At least 10 years old
