Underwater Navigation and using a Compass Underwater while scuba diving can be a bit challenging at first, however, it really isn't as hard as some people may think. It can be intimidating, but with a few simple tips I share in this video, you'll be able to use your compass underwater to navigate without any issues. I teach you how to do an out and back reciprocal, as well as make 90-degree turns to navigate a square pattern. I also break down the various types of compasses, such as wrist-mount compasses, console-mounted compasses, digital / computer compasses, and hand-held compasses. While this isn't a replacement for a class like the PADI Underwater Navigation course, I think you'll find it covers a lot of similar information so you'll be ahead of your classmates if you decide to take the Underwater Navigation Speciality Course.
