Excellent buoyancy control is what defines experienced scuba divers. You’ve seen them underwater – gliding effortlessly, using less air on both ascent and descent, and floating with almost no effort. They observe marine life more easily without disturbing the environment. You can achieve this too. The PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty program improves the buoyancy skills you developed as a new diver and takes them to the next level. The Peak Performance Buoyancy course is open to PADI (Junior) Open Water Divers, or divers of a higher certification level, who are at least 10 years old.
