Underwater Navigation Techniques

Underwater navigation techniques help divers find their way when submerged. Key methods include using a compass to orient direction, natural landmarks like reefs or unique rock formations as reference points, and surface markers that can be seen from below. Divers may also rely on time and distance calculations, tracking their movements with a planned course. Additionally, some divers use electronic devices like dive computers for more precise navigation. These techniques ensure safety and efficiency, allowing divers to explore underwater environments confidently while returning to their starting point.
