Wreck diver training [click here to return to previous page]

Many attractive or well preserved wrecks are in deeper water requiring deep diving precautions. Wrecks may possess a variety of unique hazards to divers. Penetration diving, where the diver enters a shipwreck is an advanced skill requiring special training and equipment [Click here for Omni Diver’s Technical Diving Courses and Certification Programs].  Some diver training organizations provide wreck diver training courses, such as PADI Wreck Diver, which some divers take before wreck diving. Other organizations, such as BSAC, which have many nearby wrecks and fewer other underwater attractions do not separate wreck diving from other types of diver training. The Nautical Archaeology Society teaches awareness of underwater cultural heritage issues as well as practical diver and archaeological skills. Other organizations, such as the Artificial Reef Society of British Columbia (ARSBC) deliberately create artificial reefs to provide features for divers to explore, as well as substrates for marine life to thrive upon.
