Drift Diver

Specialty Courses

Scuba dive down rivers and use ocean currents to glide along.

The PADI Drift Diver Specialty course introduces you to the coolest magic carpet ride you’ll ever experience.

This course shows you how to enjoy rivers and ocean currents by “going with the flow,” staying with your dive partner, communicating with the dive boat and knowing where you are the whole time.
