Congratulations to Mette Bentzen, Emil Lykke-Sorensen, Niels Lindhardt, Annie Bjoernsig and Anne Andersen, for successfully completing their PADI Open Water Course with fellow countryman and resident Scandi Divers instructor Dennis Frandsen.
We hope to see you guys back soon for more awesome diving in Puerto Galera!
Marti, who is a long-time local identity here, and owner/manager of Marti’s Bar in Sabang, completed the course over a two week period.
The Advanced Rec Trimix course is designed to introduce divers to safe decompression diving using helium, and up to 100% O2 for deco gas.
Course includes theory, one confined water session and 4 dives to a maximum depth of 48 meters.
Anyone interested in extending their depth and range capabilities, and challenging themselves, please use our inquiry form.
A few quick photos of the boys and girls having some fun in the shallows of beautiful Big La Laguna Bay, while Momo had to do her surface swim as part of her scuba course. It’s true what they say… it’s more fun in the Philippines!
Thanks to the Navarro family who were here on a diving holiday from China! The kids were super-enthusiastic and great fun to have around. Jorge did his Bubblemaker course, Jacobo did the Junior Scuba Diver course, Dad Angel did the Scuba Diver course, and poor little Pablo who is too young to dive assumed his role as the official Trouble maker!
Great fun, we hope to see you guys again!
Here’s a little compilation of some photos of us, our friends and guests, throughout July 🙂
Congratulations to Satu Tiainen for completing her Peak Performance Buoyancy course with Scandi Divers Instructor Conan Fagan!
Scuba divers should be  neutrally buoyant so they neither sink nor float, and it can be a tricky skill to master.
Divers who have  the highest performance levels in buoyancy stand apart from others.  They can glide effortlessly, use less air and ascend, descend or hover, seeming with no effort at all.  They interact gently with aquatic life and affect their surroundings as minimally as possible.
The PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy course refines the basic skills you learned as a PADI Open Water Diver and elevates them to the next level.
You will learn how to trim your scuba gear so you’re perfectly balanced in the water, and move more smoothly through the water (reducing your air consumption), as well as how to hover effortlessly in both vertical and horizontal positions. Excellent skills to have in any open water diving environment.
This course is one of the many PADI courses available at Scandi Divers Resort, so there are many options for ways for you to improve you diving knowledge and skills while diving with us in Puerto Galera.
