Overheads environments all have one thing in common – whether you’re deep within the confines of a sunken ship wreck, under ice or exploring the inky-blackness of a mine, direct ascent to the surface is not an option. Discover a new dimension in diving by learning to safely and competently explore these mysterious environments…
IANTD’s range of overhead environment training programs allow you to develop your skills and knowledge of OHE diving in a safe, progressive and controlled manner under the direct supervision of your IANTD Instructor.
Building upon your existing knowledge and skills, you’ll learn the benefits and hazards of diving in an overhead environment and develop your dive skills to safely and competently plan and conduct dives in such an environment.
