Diver Propulsion Vehicle (DPV)
If scuba diving is like taking a scenic stroll around a park, a Diver Propulsion Vehicle (DPV) is like exploring a neighborhood on an (electric) bicycle.
DPVs, also called underwater scooters, allow you to see more, conserve air and get from one place to another faster - with a huge smile on your face.
We provide a scooter for you to use as part of the course. Students owning their own DPV are welcome to bring and use it instead.
