Buoyancy workshop
As environmentalists spending a lot of time underwater, we know that buoyancy control is one of the most important skills scuba divers should master. For both, divers safety, but as well the reef. Unfortunately, due to commercial pressures in many dive center forcing instructors and students to be time pressured, it is often a skill that is not highlighted as much as it should. This lead to many accidents and damages on precious fragile coral reefs. This is why at CRCP, we value coaching divers about buoyancy control, and we take it seriously, so that the time is fun, well spent, and adapted to your specific level.
​
This buoyancy workshop is a coaching session with a Conservation professional Dive Instructor from our team that will adapt to your level, your strengths and your weaknesses, and teach you to grow your dive skills, focused on trim, finning and buoyancy, so that you develop like a pro underwater. It is usually a really fun course, challenging and amusing and is perfect for both beginners as well as more advanced scuba divers that would like to challenge themselves & improve their control and comfort underwater.
