What People Say

Beautiful Oceans also gives much information to interest experienced reef watchers. I certainly learned things from it, and I've been diving for over 20 years, have a biology degree and regularly consult a veritable library of sea-life. It is also refreshing to see a project with such a commitment to preserving the marine environment that they donate 10% of their profits to marine conservation.

Beautiful Oceans Dive Briefing"WOW is all I can say. I have learned so much in the first course, that I can't wait for the next. I just need to do my webcam presentation, and then get the rest of my assignments graded. Thanks so much for creating a great program!" Colyn Zylka,  Divemaster, Delafield, Wisconsin

"I wanted to let you know that my course materials arrived today. I must say those are some of the nicest course materials I have ever seen. In 2 years of college and throughout all my PADI/DAN training I haven't seen materials that well put together, organzied with such great images and descriptions. Thanks!" Jeremy Gosnell, Divemaster, Oakland, California

“It's amazing that after so many years of diving your courses were able to completely change the way I look at coral reefs. Taking the Beautiful Oceans Science Instructor Development Course (SIDC) was like switching on a light.” Errol, Divemaster (38 years) Barbados

"I work in coral reef management on a daily basis, yet your course not only refreshed, but brought new insight and knowledge. For example, redlip blennies lacking a swim bladder explains a lot of the behaviour divers and snorkelers observe on the reef with respect to this little creature. I am really impressed - this is a fantastic SIDC, and a must for any diving professionnal." Angelique, Scientist and Scuba Instructor - Coastal Zone Management Unit, Government of Barbados, 35 years - Oistens, Barbados

“I have been very impressed by the high quality of the course material available to both the students and the instructor. The material is of the highest possible quality. It is, in fact, extremely impressive." Darcy Kieran, PADI Course Director and President of ‘Total Diving’, a PADI Career Development Center, Montreal, Canada

"This new venture provides a good introduction to coral reefs.  However, it also gives much information to interest experienced reef watchers.  I certainly learned things from it, and I've been diving for over 20 years, have a biology degree and regularly consult a veritable library of sea-life and marine biology books. It is also refreshing to see a project with such a commitment to preserving the marine environment that they donate 10% of their profits to marine conservation."
