Drift Diver

Drift diving teaches divers how to plan and execute dives in moving water with comfort and control. This course focuses on entries, buoyancy, positioning, and communication so current becomes part of the dive—not a stressor.

You’ll learn how to work with the flow, stay with your team, and manage pickups and surface procedures. Drift diving is about awareness, calm decision-making, and efficient movement in a dynamic environment.

Drift diving can feel effortless—like flying. When you’re trimmed out and relaxed, the current does the work and you simply experience the site as it moves past you.
