After the immersion, Simon and Matthew immediately decided that they should take it a step further.

It's great to dive with the whole family right from a boat in the Maldives. Laura (13 years old), together with her mom and dad, dared to conquer the dive sites of Minaavaru and Dhigu Faru, which are ten minutes away from the diving center by boat. Despite the slight roughness of the sea, the Shoreline boat took us to the first dive site in comfort. After practicing the exercises, Laura bravely plunged to a depth of 12 meters and had a lot of fun. After the break, there was another dive in a different location with many colorful reef fish, which Laura did with her mom while her dad was snorkelling.

US Navy Dive Planner - 06/08/2021

Yes, the one that SSI (Scuba Schools International) is using is now available in a convenient digital form. Just enter the depth, dive time and other parameters to get the result. It is also a great way to test yourself if you are taking Open Water Diver course with a printed table.

The table is used to plan several dives that you are going to do on the same day. For the very first dive, use Table 1. Table 2 calculates the nitrogen level in your tissues after the surface interval between dives. Table 3 is needed to calculate subsequent dives.
