Course Description
The north Atlantic coast off Porto is not tropical diving. Water temperatures make a drysuit a practical piece of kit for year-round diving here, and CS Diving Center offers the SSI Dry Suit specialty to train you in using one safely.
The course covers the specific buoyancy management required when diving dry, emergency procedures unique to drysuit diving, and equipment maintenance. Training starts in confined water before moving to open water dives.
For divers planning to dive the local wrecks regularly — particularly the U-1277 at 30 metres, where bottom time and thermal comfort matter — this specialty pays back quickly.
