Abalone Adventures

Becoming a PADI Rescue Diver involves an investment in oneself and an expansion of one’s comfort zone. Through the experience you will learn to be aware of yourself, the environment, and another diver. You learn to be prepared for, prevent, and respond to diver emergencies. We call it the most rewarding class, because it provides divers with confidence and comfort in their future dives. Divers can find out what their strengths and weaknesses are in an emergency and develop strategies to contribute to emergency situations and respond with CPR, First Aid, AED and Emergency Oxygen use. This past weekend these three divers finished their performance requirements and many already certified PADI Rescue Divers got to review the program to keep their skills sharp. Thanks to everyone who attended this past week and weekend, it feels great to have more PADI Rescue divers in the world.

Last weekend the March Weekend Open Water Scuba Diver Course completed their final requirements! These three students are now PADI Open Water Scuba Divers! Underwater Sports has PADI Open Water Scuba Diver Courses every week. If you are interested, please contact Underwater Sports at 2063623310 to begin your underwater adventures.

We had a great dive at Edmonds Underwater Park this beautiful, snowy, rainy, then Sunny Sunday. Calypso Edmonds is earned after an hour long dive.

Congratulations to the students from the PADI Rescue Diver class this past weekend! They each demonstrated great tenacity and courage as they developed their above and below the water skills and embraced the challenges of the rescue scenarios. We are proud of each of you for reaching this level of achievement as a diver and look forward to your future endeavors. If you are interested in learning about the PADI Rescue Diver Certification, let us know.

What a great turnout! Hans Zimmer trivia was very fun! Happy Thirsty Thursday to everyone.

This past Saturday, a group of Abalone Adventurers went to Mike’s Beach Resort for a few dives. We saw multiple Giant Pacific Octopus! To all the divers who joined, thanks for such a fun time diving one of the places we love the most. The Hama Hama Oyster Saloon is always a treat and the Hardware Distillery was a great time too.

Congratulations to the divers that finished the PADI Rescue Diver course this past weekend! We are proud of your accomplishments. They overcame all the exercises and each scenario by putting their knowledge and skills together to meet every challenge. They demonstrated great leadership and cunning strategy and rescued all the divers needing assistance.

Congratulations to these five PADI Open Water Scuba Divers for completing their course in Seattle, WA! They trained in the pool at Underwater Sports Seattle to develop their scuba diving skills before going to West Seattle’s Alki Cove 2 dive site to complete their open water dives. We look forward to seeing where these divers go with their new abilities.

We have four more divers in the community! Congratulations to these four divers for completing their PADI Open Water Scuba Diver course! We look forward to seeing them explore the underwater world both here locally and abroad!
