About this trip

The PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty course improves the buoyancy skills you learned as a new diver and elevates them to the next level.

  • Excellent buoyancy control is what defines skilled scuba divers. You’ve seen them underwater. They more easily observe aquatic life without disturbing their surroundings. They glide effortlessly, use less air and ascend, descend or hover almost as if by thought You can achieve this too.
  • During two scuba dives, you’ll learn how to:
    • Determine the exact weight you need, so you’re not too light or too heavy.
    • Trim your weight system and scuba gear so you’re perfectly balanced in the water.
    • Streamline to save energy, use air more efficiently and move more smoothly through the water.
    • Hover effortlessly in any position – vertical or horizontal.

I had a superb experience getting my Open Water Diver certification and going out twice afterwards for recreational dives. The instruction, the equipment and the personal attention were first rate. This 72 yr. old highly recommends HDC for training and recreational diving. Very friendly folks who obviously love what they do. April 2025

An absolutely amazing week of diving! My daughter completed her advanced open water certification, and her instructor. Shaun was fantastic. Thoughtful organized and really flexible his easy comfortable style was great. The entire Dive shop was terrific in their customer service and attention to detail. The Dive sites were amazing!. I usually dive in the Caribbean, but the Pacific Coast diving has such an amazing abundance of wildlife that I was able to see a lot of wonderful things that I normally don’t see in the Caribbean. If you’re in Huatulco, diving here is a must! A very big thank you to the entire Dive team!

First class dive shop! My family had a wonderful dive experience with Huatulco Dive center! Everything was a notch above expectations. The equipment was new and well maintained, the boat was comfortable, fast, and offered shade. Our first dive we submerged into good visibility and abundant coral and fish life, and the second dive, even with rough visibility, we all got to see a big seahorse and enjoy a great dive with an excellent dive master, Brenda. Above all, the entire staff was exceptional. From arrangements months ahead, to wonderful dove shop conversations, we couldn’t have walked away more satisfied. If you’re lucky enough to get to dive around world, you know not every dive location, season, or day looks like the movies, and you also know that it’s the people and shops that make it all special regardless. This is one of those groups! Thank you! With luck, we’ll see you again :)
