PRO-DIVE is the worlds leader in SCUBA diver training
Marine Awareness
Next time you go for a dive, look closer to see more on your dive. Look for symbioses, predator/prey and other relationships between aquatic plant and animal life. Learn not just what fish and animals are, but how they interact with each other and the environment.
The Fun Part
Do you understand the effect of water upon humans?
Can you recognise a dangerous marine organism or situation?
If your answer to both these questions is No?
Pro-Dive Central Coast Marine Awareness Course is designed with you in mind.
What You Learn
Many divers do not realise they are causing damage to our marine environment whilst, many distinct marine animals have been devastated by either pollution, over-fishing or plain ignorance.
Becoming aware is something we all have to learn.
The Marine Awareness course is designed to help our future generations to enjoy our wonderful marine environment in the same manner we can today.
