Comments and Feedback
Thanks to Mohamed Benati and Daniel Iannantuoni, newly Open Water Divers certified for their dedication to make our dive site cleaner. Thanks also to Alexandre Grimard, Divemaster Candidate, for his active participation and great role model. Very pleased to see our training dive site cleaner and cleaner thanks to our enthusiastic students. This makes all good.
Dive Against Debris specialty was a great experience for newly certified Open Water Divers and made them practice their buoyancy.
