I gained qualifications!
January 20, 2016by: Fiona Nagy - AucklandProgram: Marine Conservation & Divemaster Internship Indian Ocean
The most positive experiences that I gained from the program includes gaining qualifications I could put on my CV as I improve my diving skills. It is also great seeing unusual plants and animals in Seychelles.
Well organised!

The diving and the base staff and scholars were great. The team running the base were amazing - well organised, ran a safe operation, good science training, great engagement with local community and were available all the time and very friendly and lot of fun. Laughing all the time. They were the biggest positive about this trip, well, after the diving!
An amazing experience!

All about the trip was an amazing experience! Diving and learning about coral reefs, meeting and making new friends and sharing life experiences with them, being able to adapt when the no-water situation occurred after the second week, staff velocity to reorganize the camp.
