How does SDI Underwater Navigation run, day by day?

SDI Underwater Navigation usually takes usually 1–2 days.

  1. Day 1

    Theory and first dives

    Natural navigation from reef shape, sand ripples and light, then compass work you can trust when the visibility drops.

  2. Training dives

    2–3 dives

    Each dive has one clear goal, briefed before and reviewed after.

    • Measure your own kick cycles over a set distance
    • Out-and-back and square patterns by compass
    • Find the boat again using only natural references
  3. Finish

    Certification

    Knowledge review signed off and your certification processed.

Boat days follow our daily schedule — 07:00 hotel pickup, back at your hotel around 13:30 — and the plan shifts if wind or sea conditions say so. Your instructor sets the final pace.
