International Scuba has the distinct honor of being the only National Geographic Dive Center in Dallas!

As a National Geographic Diver, you join an elite group of explorers, adventurers and conservationists. The insight and training you gain during this program will broaden your awareness and take your diving skills to a new level. You'll learn to observe and explore like an underwater scientist.

Your experience begins with the PADI Open Water Diver program, enhanced with adventures unique to the National Geographic Diver program. You will learn to explore with detail, identify important underwater features and navigate with certainty. You will have the diving knowledge and practice to maneuver with poise along the reef’s ecosystems.

Our program is designed for at least two dives. On dive one we will focus on buoyancy skills above and beyond the standard course. On dive two we will combine some navigation skills with the mapping of an area. The two dives are part of the Advanced Open Water diver - so only 3 more to go.
