Go With The Flow
Drift diving allows you to glide along the reef, covering more ground than a traditional dive while using very little energy. It’s often compared to “flying underwater.” Instead of fighting the current, you learn to use it as your engine.
In Miami, we are blessed with the Gulf Stream, which provides world-class drift diving conditions. This course teaches you how to stay in control, coordinate with the boat, and maintain buddy contact while the ocean carries you along the spectacular underwater scenery.
