ENVIRONMENTAL DIVE BRIEFING
Responsible diving practices to protect the Red Sea reef
Research shows that divers who receive no environmental briefing make contact with the coral reef on average eight times per dive. 80% of these contacts are damaging and only 35% of all contacts are unintentional. As a result of receiving an environmental briefing, contacts are reduced from eight to one or two per dive, with less than 30% of these causing damage and 80% of all contacts being unintentional.
