WRECK DIVING

The PADI Wreck Diver Course

Whether intentionally sunk to create an artificial reef or the result of tragic events, wrecks provide a fascinating window into the past. Most divers find wrecks of ships, planes, or even cars irresistible because they are thrilling to explore, hold an exciting potential for discovery, and are usually home to abundant marine life. The PADI Wreck Diver course teaches all aspects of responsible and rewarding wreck diving.
