Winners of PADI’s 2006, 2007 and 2008 ‘Environmental Achievement Award………….

Congratulations to Utila Dive Center’s team of PADI Divemaster, Instructor and support staff for receiving this award from PADI for their environmental and conservation efforts in both 2006, 2007 and 2008. Only a handful of dive resorts and centers worldwide receive this award and is a reflection of all the hard work, investment and dedication that UDC staff have shown through their environmental clean-up’s, research activities, educational programs and setting up an ecological facility on Utila. A special show of appreciation and thanks was delivered to the owners of the Utila Dive Center for their generous investment and commitment to setting up the only non-profit, NGO, in Utila that specialises in courses covering ecological areas, mangrove concerns and marine research, with the ‘Utila Center for Marine Ecology’ (UCME) headed by biologist Stephen Box. The UCME is open to all divers on Utila, especially Divemaster and Instructor (IDC) candidates and interns, as a way to improve their own education and understanding of ecological matters on a local level by studying the meso-american reef system that runs from Mexico, to Belize and into Honduras, and also on a global level.
