Tired of feeling lost underwater? The Underwater Navigator course gives you the skills to find your way with confidence — whether you're exploring a new site or leading a buddy back to the boat like a pro.

You’ll learn how to use a compass, read natural clues, estimate distances, and make accurate turns and patterns underwater. It’s all about getting more comfortable, more aware, and more in control of your dives.

Say goodbye to surface swims and second-guessing — it’s time to master your underwater sense of direction!


What You’ll Learn

It’s easy to get disoriented underwater if you don’t know how to use a compass or natural navigation clues.

Learn how to easily find your way back to boat or shore without returning to the surface and avoid long, exhausting swims.
