What the Activity is

A professional development course for the people who guide and run trips on the water: guides, dive, snorkel and paddle operators, and ecotourism professionals, on the ocean, along the coast and on still inland water. Over six modules, participants build the working documents of a safer, more professional operation, from risk management and group leadership to sustainable practice, field logistics and the regulatory side of the work, for a real operation they own, work in or research.

Why it matters for the ocean

Guides and operators are often the people who take visitors into the water every day. The Activity aims to help them reduce pressure on the sites they depend on, raise safety standards for guests and crew, and build operations that can last.

About the Ocean Decade
