Ce qu’il faut vérifier à bord d’un bateau de plongée
En cas d’urgence lors d’une plongée depuis un bateau, ni vous ni l’équipage ne pouvez vous permettre de perdre de précieuses secondes à chercher l’équipement de sécurité. Que ce soit sur un bateau pour un jour ou sur un bateau de croisière, certains équipements doivent toujours être facilement accessibles.
Gaming Introduced Me to a New World
I’m 14 years old and a newly certified scuba diver. I’ve heard that many years ago divers got certified because of Jacques Cousteau or an old TV show called Sea Hunt, but those were way before my time.
Dive Incident Reporting System
In 2012 DAN released a tool for divers to report dive accidents to help us quantify their severity and frequency. We revitalized the reporting process to make it easier and more efficient and relaunched it in 2021.
Shark Deterrents
Many divers seek interactions with sharks, but others actively seek to avoid them. As long as sharks are in the water, people will look for ways to reduce the lethality of a shark bite or decrease encounters altogether.
Continuing Education for Dive Professionals
Many professional and occupational fields — such as medicine, engineering, accounting, and insurance — require continuing education to maintain a current certification.
