At some point in your diving career, you or your buddy will either lose or find something underwater and the knowledge and skills you gain in the NAUI Search and Recovery Diver course will help you when you do. You'll learn about underwater navigation using natural and compass techniques; the problems, methods, equipment, hazards, and safety procedures regarding limited visibility diving; proper search methods and techniques; and how to handle light salvage or recovery, including rigging and knot tying. Useful skills anywhere you dive, and especially handy in Pacific Northwest water where visibility can drop fast.

Astoria Scuba teaches this course locally in Astoria, Oregon, so the search and navigation techniques you learn are built around real-world conditions, from limited-visibility local diving to clearer water on dive trips elsewhere.
