Wreck Diver Class
Whether purpose-sunk as an artificial reef for scuba divers, or lost as the result of an accident or weather, wrecks are fascinating. Most divers find wreck diving irresistible because not only do you get to explore a little piece of the past, but it opens up new and exciting avenues of discovery. On top of being able to dive into history, wrecks are also artificial reefs teeming with life. Aquatic creatures thrive in the nooks and crannies made available by the sunken vessel.
The Wreck Diver Specialty course is popular because it offers rewarding adventures while observing responsible wreck diving practices, teaching you wreck penetration skills. We recommend doing this course using redundant gas supplies such as sidemount, backmount doubles or a pony bottle.
