Adventure Conservation Exploration!

Since Sea Hounds received the National Geographic Dive Center award in November 2004, we have certified over 40 National Geographic Divers! These committed divers include everyone from PADI Instructors to our youngest Junior National Geographic Diver, 10 year old Danielle Koh!

Each program we conduct just gets better and as crew members, we have lots of fun learning with our divers.

For certified divers and people thinking of beginning their dive adventure, the National Geographic Diver program with the Sea Hounds ensures an unforgettable experience of Adventure. You Explore our local reefs with us and get to know its inhabitants intimately. You can also get involved with coral health monitoring and fish counts.

Apart from knowing and appreciating reliant eco-systems, marine, coastal and terrestrial, you also acquire the necessary skills which enable you to be a responsible diver with Conservation in mind. On our recent explorations, we were not only able to observe behaviours of marine mammals & reptiles such as common dolphins and hawksbill turtles but also see the plight they are in with many factors working against their existence like coastal development, which brings heavy boat traffic & noise pollution, plastic & foam rubbish, and silting.

These skills include peak performance buoyancy in various positions(useful to get a closer look at the animals or taking the perfect photo!), aquatic life identification or underwater navigation.
The best part of the course is your National Geographic Exploration Dive where you put into practice what you've been training for!

  1. DIVING SKILLS ARE ONLY A MEANS TO AN END.......
    Of course, the real fun begins when you hit the water.

    During training, you'll practice basic skills, like retrieving a lost regulator, clearing a mask, descending and ascending at a controlled speed, controlling your buoyancy, and navigating underwater.
    But diving skills are only a means to an end, and that end, of course, is the experience of lingering weightless in the water, part of the undersea world.

    What can you expect to see?
    That very much depends on where you dive.You might see a pod of dolphins, or a whale shark, or a moray eel with a head the size of a basketball. Or barracudas and groupers and parrotfish and manta rays. Or a hundred different corals, and sea urchins, and star-fish.
    A trip beneath the sea has been called a voyage into inner space. It's yours to explore.

  2. Thank you for your post and we share the same enthusiasm and reasons why we go diving.

    Diving skills should not be played down though as being "ONLY a means to an end." It continues to and is necessary for, as you mentioned, where you dive, different conditions and even to the animals you wish to interact with.

  10. I am impressed with Danielle Koh, wow, 10 years old and already a certified diver!

    She is indeed a brave girl, and will go a long way in her diving career, if she chooses this form of sports.

    Well done, Danielle!
