PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy

PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy

book-now-purpleExcellent buoyancy control is what defines skilled scuba divers. You’ve seen them underwater. They glide effortlessly, use less air and ascend, descend or hover almost as if by thought. They more easily observe aquatic life without disturbing their surroundings. You can achieve this, too. The PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Speciality course improves the buoyancy skills you learned as a new diver and elevates them to the next level.

What do you need to start?

  • You need to be at least 10 years old or older
  • You need to be a PADI certified Open Water diver (Junior Open Water diver) or equivalent
  • To complete a medical self certification statement. If there are any health concerns you will need to take the questionnaire to your doctor for a final check before diving. Click here to go to the form/s you need to complete before starting this course.

What will you learn?

  • Hover effortlessly in any position – vertical or horizontal
