Technical diving, or ‘tech’ diving as divers usually call it, has nowadays taken it rightful place as the state of the art of sport diving and its influence has been widely felt across the recreational diving industry. It is no wonder that there is considerable interest in technical diving among avid recreational divers. Instead of plunging right into the geeky depths of technical diving, our Intro To Technical Diving Course Level 0 provides interested divers with a thoughtful overview of what technical diving is all about.

Technical diving also requires different diving gear. All diving equipment considerations and streamlining for technical diving, will be discussed during the course.
