Diver's New Years Resolution

Apo Island Scuba Diving

 

Here's our top 5 suggestions for a diver's new years resolution:

  1. I will collect all trash I see underwater and dispose of them properly after the dive.
  2. I will learn more about marine animals so I may lessen the impact of my presense in their environment.  I will also follow and support more ecological initiatives.
  3. I will upgrade my diving knowledge and skills through NAUI continuing education courses.
  4. I will venture and explore more dive destinations.
  5. I will be a better dive buddy by giving my scuba gear proper maintainance and regular service.
