Learn to dive in Sussex, Kent and Surrey with Sussex Scuba diving courses

Are you curious about the many fish in the sea?

Would you like to know the various types of fish?
This program covers the knowledge and techniques for identifying fish common to our area. (or if you prefer we can also cover fish from other regions)

The following is included in your PADI AWARE – Fish Identification Diver program:
• The Project AWARE philosophy about protecting worldwide aquatic ecosystems.
• Fish family groupings and common characteristics of fish species found in the local area.
• Fish surveying techniques and strategies for collecting valid data.
• The planning, organisation, and procedures for identifying fish families and species while diving.

During the AWARE – Fish Identification Diver program you’ll go on two open water dives (which may be completed in one day). The first dive allows you to practice basic fish identification techniques, while the second dive prompts you to collect fish identification data for submission to the REEF Fish Survey Project (if appropriate). After the dives, you’re required to log the experience in your personal log book.
