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!


Skills mastered during this program are credited to your PADI Advanced Open Water Diver course and PADI Specialty Diver courses.

A National Geographic Experience!

Celebrate the Sea 2005 lived up to what it represented. The organizers did a fantastic job of drawing in a great mix of exhibitors to make it 3 days of well-rounded environmental awareness and appreciation for everyone!

The crew at Sea Hounds made it a success for ourselves in terms of sharing with the visitors what it means to receive good diver education.

The PADI National Geographic Diver programs were introduced once again, which generated much interest! Our biggest highlight was when Shahram of PADI brought Dr Sylvia Earle, Explorer in Residence at National Geographic, to our booth. Her presence was enough encouragement for the team to push our drive for more National Geographic Explorers.


Project AWARE campaigns were a hit with the AWARE Kids program the most popular. Signing up the kids to be more aware of our marine environment was held at the booth as well as in conjunction with the PADI Discover Scuba Diving & Bubblemaker programs conducted outside Suntec Convention Center at street level.


Ensuring the education of our future generations with kids programs could not go without including Instructor Development. Sea Hounds also had good response to its PADI Instructor courses and we look forward to sharing care for the environment with our future dive educators.


The Singapore Underwater Federation also launched their public awareness brochure containing its mission and introductions to the National Operational Code of Practices for dive operators.
