TOGETHER WE CAN PROTECT OUR OCEANS

​

" We want everyone to be aware of the environmental problems our oceans are suffering day by day. The Mission Deep Blue movement supports the conservation and sustainable use of aquatic environments, including oceans, seas, coasts, and waterways and their magnificent diversity of plant and animal species."

RESPONSIBLE DIVER CODE

We‘re all responsible for protecting our aquatic resources. With our Responsible Diver Code, we want to make everyone aware of the environmental problems from the start. We want them to think critically and take positive action whenever they travel and dive.

At Roatan Dive Center, SSI # 750430, we expect all our divers to be constantly aware of the environment 

when diving, under the water, good buoyancy is imperative. Do not touch the coral reef or tease or harass the marine life

And expect the same from others you dive wit,h and we expect it from our Dive Professionals. 

​

Only use a swim-through if you can do so without touching anything
Don’t swim or snorkel too close to the reef
Don’t touch or break corals
Use labeled entrances/exits for the water
Don’t disturb the sand, since it reduces visibility and smothers corals
Don’t hunt or bother animals
Don’t touch animals unless properly trained
Don’t feed animals
Don’t take souvenirs from the sea - broken coral pieces or empty snail shells still serve as useful habitat
Only place a reef hook where it will not damage or disturb the reef
Do not disturb animals or habitat to improve your photo opportunity
