One of the first lessons we learn about scuba is that we need to communicate with our guides and buddy underwater. Hand signals, torch signals, slates, line pulls are all used to do this. How about communicating naturally, by speech? The Ocean Reef range of wireless communication devices will provide the tools to do this and this course will help you use them effectively.

Ocean Reef Underwater Communications course together with Face Masks will be a huge advantage for any future courses. No matter what time of year be the guy with the warm, dry face and big grin but more than comfort the ability to share information naturally with buddies adds to dive safety and pleasure . Digital Underwater Photographers will love the ability to pass on information to each other. Sidemount and Tec diving can be made easier and safer by utilising the dual tank valve to switch tanks or gasses and never being without a 2nd stage! Imagine talking through a NOTOX gas switch as you are doing it.
