PADI Underwater Naturalist

On this course you’ll learn why some fish seem do favour some seemingly bizarre antics. In the food chain down below you will learn to detect who cleans who and where, who is marauding or hunting who, who are the predators and the unlucky ones, who pairs with whom. You will learn to understand and appreciate this and recognize why reef networks are very delicate systems.

You are a committed recreational diver, engaged with the significance of interactive naturalist ecosystems. You are a responsible diver, eager to learn.

Learn the major aquatic life groupings. The more familiar you are with aquatic plants and animal habitats, with symbioses and with underwater ecology, the more chance you will detect behaviors and see creatures you may have previously overlooked. It makes diving so much more interesting if you know what you’re looking at and why it’s at that particular site.

The Underwater Naturalist Course is an introduction to the aquatic environment and will help develop safe and responsible aquatic life interaction techniques, as well as teaching you how to identify our local marine creatures. When enrolled in the course, you will be taught the major differences between the terrestrial and aquatic worlds. Major aquatic life groupings and their interactions will no longer be secretive to you.
