Coral watch dives

Next to the regular dives we offer Coral watch dives. This is a day of diving, where we go under with coral charts, taking data to map the reef and check how it is affected over time. It is a fun way to learn about the coral reef, and a great feeling to make your dives count! If you are interested have a look at www.coralwatch.org

Reef check courses

One of the courses we teach is the eco diver course from reefcheck.org. An eco diver learns all about coral reefs, its threats and its conservation.  

• Eco diver www.reefcheck.org

This is a 4 day course on coral threats and conservation. The course includes theory on reef conservation and fish recognition, buoyancy training, and data taking on the coral reef. The data is collected by reef check, and is used to survey the reefs around the world.  It is an important step towards mapping the existing reefs and their condition.

• Eco diver package with reef data taking.

For those interested in cooperating with the mapping of the reefs, there is a full dive package, including a week of dive training, and 3 weeks of reef data taking.

Aware on boat

• Drinking water, we take 30 liter bottles on the boat and serve it in a big jar with ice. This way there is less litter, and plastic bottles don’t end up going overboard with the wind.
• Soft drinks on board are available in bottles, cutting down on litter as well, and we wash the cups instead of using disposable ones.
• Lunch, is served on plates, no Styrofoam or unnecessary plastic bags.
• All Dm and Instructors collect rubbish while diving, and recommend other divers to do so.
• Bio diesel is used for the boat.
• Boat share, we invite other dive schools in low season to join on the boat, this cuts down on petrol use and the pollution that comes with it.

Project Aware

• Aware stickers for certification cards are available for all dive students, for only 200 baht they contribute to the project aware program from padi www.projectaware.org
• Local awareness in Bang Bao village is growing, we’ re part of the committee’ Bang Bao clean and green”,  that plans actions to get the living space cleaner and healthier
