NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC DIVERS are adventurers, explorers,
and conservationists. You have an interest in scuba
diving and underwater sciences that goes beyond that

Most divers are fascinated with the aquatic world,
which inspires them to learn more. Because you have
already learned the theory and skills of diving, the
National Geographic Specialty Diver program gives
you the opportunity to build on your dive experience
to learn about new adventures, exploration and conservation
opportunities. The National Geographic Specialty program
will help you take your dive experiences to a new
level. How? You’ll learn more about the world’s oceans
and waterways and discover details that will enhance
your personal dive adventures.
ADDITIONAL
SKILLS MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

the National Geographic Specialty program, you’ll
find yourself sharing your discoveries with other
divers and becoming a true underwater ambassador.
Your adventures will include:
1)

your buoyancy skills
2) Improving
your navigation skills
3)

an exploration project
4)

Life Identification
These
are just a few of the exciting differences in earning
the National Geographic Specialty Diver. Scuba Fusion Dive Center, the first Bay Area
PADI Dive Center to receive the National Geographic
Dive Center designation, has trained all of our Instructors
as National Geographic Dive Instructors to offer you
