Quick Details
Epic Conservation Awareness
The Squalo Divers Ocean Explorers Package is a scuba training and marine and conservation education initiative, striving to spread awareness of our wonderful yet fragile ocean and its ecosystem through the evolution of experience and knowledge.
The opportunity to see brilliantly colored tropical fish and other marine creatures in their natural environment is among the chief reasons many of us dive. Yet doing so is nowhere nearly rewarding if you don’t know:
- The names of the animals you are looking at
- What makes them unique
- What relatives they may have in different oceans of the world
- How can we better protect them
This package includes:
- Adventure Diver Course
- Fish ID Diver Speciality
- Sea Turtle Aware Diver Specialty
- Goliath Grouper Awareness Diver Specialty
In a short period of time, you can master and learn fascinating facts about the origin and behavior of these remarkable marine species.
