    \n

    In pursuing your Master Scuba Diver rating, you have to take at least 5 different specialty diver courses. \u00a0This means learning lots of new and cool underwater skills that will be very useful in all of your future diving adventures like night diving, underwater photography, underwater navigation (ever wanted to know how to get yourself back to the boat??), deep diving, drift diving, etc!<\/p>\n

    Reason 2: \u00a0Expand your Global Awareness!<\/h3>\n

    Another requirement to a\u00a0the Master Scuba Diver rating is becoming both Advanced and Rescue diver certified. \u00a0In taking both of these courses (especially the Rescue course) you learn how to look beyond just the care of yourself underwater but about how to care about the environment around you and others you are diving with. \u00a0This is called Global Awareness and it's a great skill to have, especially when you are diving in far off locations and with lots of other people.<\/p>\n

    Reason 3: \u00a0Become an experienced diver!<\/h3>\n

    The thrid main requirment is to have at least 50 logged dives. \u00a0That's a lot of diving experience! \u00a0And everyone knows that the more you do something, the more comfortable you feel and the better you get at it. \u00a0This is always a plus!<\/p>\n

    \"be<\/a>Reason 4: \u00a0Make friends and dive buddies!<\/h3>\n

    Every class you take with us on your path to earning your Master Scuba Diver rating will be full of friendly people who love diving as much as you do. \u00a0You will make plenty of new friends and meet folks to go diving with each time you enroll in a new course.<\/p>\n

    Reason 5: \u00a0Count yourself among the Elite!<\/h3>\n
