The
PADI Underwater Naturalist course is designed to help you to interact with the
living underwater world based on objective assessments and observations. Thus,
the goal of this course is to teach student divers to view the aquatic
ecosystems scientifically, without biases based on misconceptions and myths.
Student divers learn basic organism groupings and identification, but the
emphasis is placed on student diver understandings of the relationships between
organisms, their environment and humans, as well as on the application of
environmentally friendly dive techniques.
