Sustainable Scuba Diving
WHAT IS SUSTAINABLE SCUBA DIVING?

Sustainable scuba diving means diving in a way that respects and protects the marine environment. It’s about making conscious choices — from buoyancy control to reef-safe products — that reduce our impact underwater.
Every diver, instructor, and dive center has a role to play. As professionals, we have a responsibility to lead by example, promote good habits, and help divers understand the basics of marine biology and reef conservation.
At 3W Dive, we integrate these principles into our daily practice and training. For those who want to go further, our partner NGO Indo Coral Conservation offers hands-on coral restoration and ecological workshops through its Marine Conservation Internship.
Together, we can help protect the reefs we love to explore.
3W DIVE COMMITMENTS TOWARDS SUSTAINABLE SCUBA DIVING
At 3W Dive, we take sustainability seriously — both in the water and in our daily operations. Our dive school is committed to minimizing environmental impact and promoting marine conservation through education and responsible practice.
We train our students and staff in sustainable scuba diving techniques, with a strong focus on buoyancy control, respectful behavior around marine life, and awareness of fragile habitats. Our courses include environmental briefings and information about local ecosystems and protected areas.
We also reduce waste, avoid single-use plastics, and support reef-safe diving practices. Our partnership with Indo Coral Conservation allows us to contribute directly to coral restoration efforts around the Gili Islands.
For those pursuing professional training, our Divemaster Internship includes guidance on sustainable diving standards and encourages future dive pros to lead by example.
As a dive school, we’re in a position to influence how divers interact with the ocean. By promoting thoughtful, low-impact diving, we aim to protect the reefs we rely on — not just for today, but for the future.
