28th July 2020 By David Pike Leave a Comment

PADI launches world map diving guide – For over 50 years PADI, the Professional Association of Diving Instructors, has facilitated people seeking to experience the wonder of the underwater world.

Covid-19 has seriously disrupted travel and scuba diving operations across the globe but, as the world slowly opens again, PADI is helping divers get back in the water to enjoy the sport they love.

It has created an interactive online map to make it easy to identify in real-time where diving is permitted and what dive shops are open locally and around the world.

Information has been collated at source from 6750 dive centres around the world and updated regularly as situations evolve. The easy-to-use map is available at https://travel.padi.com/scuba-diving-after-coronavirus-world-map/.

Just click on any country to see what travel restrictions apply, accessibility of diving in that country and the latest status for each PADI Dive Centre and Resort.
