NAUI OVERHEAD ENVIRONMENTS

NAUI OVERHEAD ENVIRONMENTS

Overhead Environments

Divers love to explore and while most divers are content to confine their diving to the open water, allowing direct access to the surface at all times, others love the thrill of discovering new places far from the surface. Undersea caves, abandoned mines, under the ice and inside shipwrecks are all popular destinations for these intrepid explorers who go beyond the bounds of recreational diving.

If this type of exploration appeals to you, then NAUI training programs for overhead environments is for you! Take a look at the list of NAUI programs and contact your local NAUI Instructor for additional information.
