You will discover that you enjoy more your dives recognizing the creatures you see. The fun part of this course is that you can use the skills learned in each dive beacuse when you learn the main fish families and their characteristics, it will help you to decipher the species you see around the world.

If you know which family the fish belongs to, it will be much easier to find your local name or at least to be able to inquire sensibly from the instructor in the area what you have seen.
