PEAK PERFORMANCE BUOYANCY Learn to look like the pros underwater!

The PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Course

Scuba divers like to be neutrally buoyant so they neither sink to the sand nor float to the surface. It's a tricky thing. Divers who’ve mastered the highest performance levels in buoyancy stand apart. You’ve seen them underwater. They glide effortlessly, use less air and ascend, descend or hover, almost as if by thought. Best of all, they never crash into, bump, or damage any of the dive site. The PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy course refines the basic skills you learned as a PADI Open Water Diver and elevates them to the next level.
