Two days alongside active restoration projects, year-round out of Albany, Nassau.
Day 1 opens with an operational briefing and planning session, then two working dives focused on reef assessment and monitoring techniques, plus a dive observing PIMS staff establishing a monitoring plot and conducting photogrammetry. Surface intervals include GPS data collection and site documentation. Day 2 emphasizes operational efficiency and restoration execution across two to three working dives, depending on conditions. This is the level for divers who want their bottom time measured in growth tracked.
