Scuba dive entry techniques

PADI Short 13 days ago

Description

Not all dive entries are equal. The best way to enter the water depends on where you're diving.

🚤 Giant stride from a boat platform
🔄 Back roll from a smaller boat
🏖️ Careful shore entry through waves, rocks, or uneven terrain

No matter the entry, the basics stay the same:
✔️ BCD inflated
✔️ Mask and regulator secure
✔️ Area clear before entering

A good dive starts before you're underwater. The right entry technique helps keep you comfortable, confident, and in control from the very beginning.

What's your favorite way to enter the water? 👇
