Every diver knows that if you dive deeper than about 30 Meters, your senses are clouded by Nitrogen (inert gas) narcosis. It's an odd effect which can become quite dangerous at depths way below the recreational depth limit of 40 meters. At that point, the narcosis is more severe, and the diving environment (deeper) is
As a budding freediver you might find hard to determine which freediving school, freediving organization or freediving instructor is the most suitable for your basic training. With this article I hope to give you the information you need to identify a competent freediving instructor, a good freediving course and a decent facility where you can
Gerade läuft bei uns in Savedra wieder ein „Instructor Development Course“ - der PADI Kurs, der aus Divemaster frische Tauchlehrer macht. Zum ersten Mal bin ich auf der lehrenden Seite dabei! Bei unserem letzten IDC, im Juli, habe ich meine Staff-Instructor Ausbildung gemacht. Dadurch kann ich jetzt auch selbst zur Tauchlehrerausbildung beitragen. Es ist wirklich
We love the ocean here at Savedra! But, as you probably know as an environmentally informed reader, all is not well with the ocean these days. One problem it is facing is simply too much … thrash. Or, rubbish, as the British call it. “Basura” it's called here in the Philippines. And there is too
I saw a very special fish on the reef yesterday. And it's not even a goby. It's Pholidichthys leucotaenia, the convict fish. It's sometimes called a convict benny or a worm goby, but it's neither a blenny nor goby, but in its own fish family. It looks like a goby in the front, but like
We love our sardines. They live right in front of our dive shop, at our house reef. The top of the school is sometimes just below the water surface, and the bottom of the massive fish aggregation is never deeper than 10 meters. Sometimes, the fish venture over the reef edge onto the shallow reef
People find hard to believe that with correct guidance they can learn freediving even though they have no previous diving experience. Most of people are convinced that they simply can't hold their breath for more than a minute, most people are completely wrong!
At Savedra, we love to dive, so we do all we need on the surface really fast. We can assemble an underwater camera setup in 23 seconds, including the explanation how it works to a friend. [embedyt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TPbFRLRTwM[/embedyt]
The housing flood: Every underwater photographer's personal Pearl Harbor. Unexpected, and catastrophic! There is nothing worse than having a camera in a housing full of seawater. You won't get to take pictures, and you will have to fork over lots of $ again, or live underwater-camera-less in the future. The latter is of course not
With so much to keep us occupied in the shallows why go deeper? We could spend our time enjoying the coral reef, the turtles, big schools of sardines, whale sharks. Mantas and dolphins, the list goes on but you get the point. Any diver with even a modest amount of experience knows that marine life
