Exploring Marine Science and Diving
Program Overview
Live on a beachfront property, study on the crystal clear Caribbean waters, and earn your PADI Open Water SCUBA certification during our two-week immersive marine science program at Forfar Field Station. Students partake in lecture-based activities and land/sea excursions throughout the island as they explore the wonders of Andros, home to the highest concentration of blue holes in the world and bordering the 3rd largest fringing barrier reef.
Our two-week program is perfect for those interested in learning more about marine ecosystems, biology, conservation, and SCUBA diving. It is open to students ages 18-24, and you do not need to be affiliated with a school group to join. Solo and small-group travelers are welcome! Space is limited, so register today!
