Underwater Naturalist Diver
By definition, a “naturalist” is someone versed in natural history (not to be confused with a “naturist”, who is someone who sunbathes naked), so by definition, someone who is versed in aquatic natural history is an “underwater naturalist.” Therefore, to some extent you’re already a naturalist, whether you realize it or not.

The Underwater Naturalist course takes your underwater experience of aquatic organisms and their characteristics and builds upon them. You’ll understand more about the animals and plants you see underwater and learn how the environment dictates their form and behaviour.

In just one day, conducted over two dives you can become an Underwater Naturalist Diver, and see how you fit in to the underwater realm, how your actions affect organisms that you interact with, and how to visit the aquatic world in a responsible manner.

To participate you need to be 10 years of age or older, hold an Underwater PADI Open Water Diver, Junior Open Water Diver or have a qualifying certification from another training organization.
