The Open Water Diver course is the world’s most popular scuba diving program and has served as the first full certification dive course for millions of people around the world – allowing them to explore the wonders lying hidden beneath the waves.During the Open Water course, students learn the fundamentals of scuba diving in a safe and supportive environment. The program is broken down into knowledge development sections, videos, confined underwater sessions for developing skills, and open water dives which take divers for their first long glide along the reefs.Here at Scuba Seekers, we place a heavy emphasis on teaching students the proper foundational techniques of diving right from the start. Each student will also be provided with their own dive computer to use throughout the class.

With the Enriched Air Nitrox (EANx) certification, divers are able to dive with a higher concentration (up to 40%) of oxygen compared to standard air tanks.Why is this beneficial? It means:Longer bottom times. Diving with Nitrox means you absorb less nitrogen which allows you to stay underwater longer as it lengthens your no-decompression limits.Longer repetitive dive times. If undertaking multiple dives in a day, you'll have a longer allowable bottom time on subsequent dives than if you were using air.Shorter surface intervals. Breathing less nitrogen shortens the required “off-gas” time needed between dives which means you can get back in the water quicker.Less fatigue. This last point is up for debate but many divers claim diving on nitrox makes them less tired than diving on air.The Enriched Air Nitrox course is conducted as a dry course and with the eLearning done ahead of time, you can easily take the course alongside your guided dives – meaning there's no need to sacrifice underwater time during your dive holiday.

In Senegal, the International Waterfowl Census (IWC) has become an official activity coordinated by the National Parks Department with the participation of several partners. The data collected is fed into national and international databases, enabling us to identify trends and threats to wetlands before they turn into disasters. The main objectives of the IWC are: - to estimate the population size of the bird species observed; - to establish the evolutionary trends of the different bird species observed; - to help decision-making on wetland management. These objectives contribute to more effective conservation of Biodiversity in general, and of waterbirds and their habitats in particular. As usual, this activity takes place on January 15 each year at all the sites of the Direction des parcs nationaux. For the Parc des Îles de la Madeleine, the Nautilus makes one of its boats and its team available free of charge to the park rangers who will be carrying out the counting activity.

Night dive at NGor open to Night specialty training, certified night divers and advanced divers with previous night diving experience. Meet at 7pm at La Madrague in N'Gor.

N'Gor Bay is home to several green turtles. We quietly go out to meet them, keeping our distance and taking photos. The outing includes certification in SSI's Turtle Ecological Specialty.

Discover sunset diving and rediscover a rich and unsuspected site. You get into the water at sunset and little by little the site darkens to make way for fish seeking their homes for the night and turtles starting their night! Let yourself be tempted, it's magical!

Experience two different dive sites with us in one day - from over 30 possible spots around Dahab, we select the most beautiful spots depending on the conditions and experience level. Our shore dives stand for relaxed diving without time pressure: short distances, individual briefings and plenty of space to enjoy the fascinating reefs of the Red Sea in peace. During the lunch break, we fortify ourselves together in one of the cosy Bedouin restaurants right by the sea - with delicious food, a good atmosphere and a real Dahab feeling. Simply arrive, dive and enjoy.

Enjoy 2 times more and take 2 times more pleasure underwater. A snack is provided between the 2 dives.

Whether you're a couple, a family or a group, take advantage of this boat trip to explore Réunion Island's underwater world, and enjoy the moment to the full with a sunset and a cocktail with a 100% Creole aperitif. A wonderful way to take your time and enjoy the present, a must-do!
