- Hey Scuba Homies, today we're looking at how to give a good dive briefiing. When your trying to cater your boat to scuba diving for beginners, because you know that the majority of divers are beginners, you'll want to make sure that your guides know how to give a proper dive briefing.

i don't think i've ever had a briefing that covers 10% of what you just described. i WISH they were as detailed!
Nice. I'm not an instructor, but I lead dives with my friends, and devised a similar brief, following SMEAC as we did in the infantry
Very sufficient information, the more the better, greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦
I'm glad you approve Herman! Your response leads me to believe that you are a dive pro. Hows the diving out in South Africa? I gotta come visit one day. Where are you diving mostly? (in South Africa)
This is important for us non-pros, too. If we're doing it right, us experienced divers will be "paying it forward" by being a mentor to less experienced divers as dive buddies. Our mentors did it for us and we owe it to them to do it for another crop of newbies.
Oh, and another plug for us California divers (who occasionally annoy you with our independence). We don't have DMs in the water with us. No supervision. No direction. It's up to us. We get used to that. Now, it's not because our DMs are uncaring, or lazy or incompetent. It's because it's damned near impossible to supervise more than two divers, given our typical visibility. Our DMs stay on the boat, alert to any divers coming to the surface where they're not expected, and ready to jump in and get "hands on" with in-trouble divers.
Good video man. I am working towards my dive master cert. to start my journey into the professional side of diving. So this helped me a good bit.
Glad I could help! Thanks Ramy.
Barf Will Really Attract Fish:)
Truth! They love a warm meao!
Awesome video!! Thanks 🙏
Every time i do a dive briefing, i get nervous seeing alot of people looking at me and end up making it very short and missing the main points. Maybe i dont have enough confidence, but ill try my best to improve my briefing.
It's not easy. I learned how to talk to groups of people in the military. Just remember that if they are listening to you, it's because you're the subject matter expert. As a technical instructor, I still listen to briefings even on a recreational single tank type dive charter. I want to know what the guide expects of me to keep things running smoothly and what cool stuff I might see. So dont forget to include some of the fun things your divers might see. Their excitement might help you feel a little more comfortable.
It might help you to try to talk about the dive from start to finish (including gear up, safety check, entering/exiting the water). It takes practice, so dont be discouraged by a couple of rough briefings. You got this.
