Why Take This Course?

• Stay Warm: Unlike a wetsuit, a drysuit keeps you sealed off from the water, keeping you toasty in even the coldest conditions.
• Explore More: Access incredible colder-water sites and enjoy fun, safe dives during cooler months of the year.
• Extend Your Season: With the right equipment, there’s no such thing as “off-season” for your dives.
• A Unique Experience: Many divers opt for our private course to prepare for unforgettable dives, like Silfra—a rare opportunity to dive between continents!

What You’ll Learn

• How to select, use, and maintain a drysuit and undergarments.
• Drysuit buoyancy control skills.
• Emergency procedures for handling stuck inflators or exhaust valves.
