What is the AQUANAUT Program?
Divers for divers.
Active Diver Program is our way to make sure your dives are never the same.
Gain experience, share it with others, dive in special places with people who - just like you - are looking for an adventure in each dive.
Show the beginners that diving can be like riding a bike or a walk in the park. You can dive at any time of the year, regardless of the weather and your budget!
We have created a program for divers who want to share their passion through cordiality, mutual respect and understanding of other divers, regardless of their experience.
Offer your experience, free seat in the car, knowledge of the area and advice on preparing the equipment before going for a dive.
You are a beginner, have just finished your training, the weather is fantastic and you feel like going for a dive? That's great! Add a trip, even if it means traveling only a few kilometers to the dive site. Maybe an instructor who already has an air tank for you will answer the ad.
