We didn’t win :(
BUT we were nominated :) And just as the Oscar nominees, we are pleased for the nomination, its already a great recognition, we were chosen from many many PADI diving centers across the continent in not one but two categories: Diver Acquisition Award and Project Aware Marine Environment Award!!!!!
Total happiness. Of course this is thanks to all of the instructors, dive masters and staff who have been with us in the last year. Without their efforts and daily motivation Aquantis would not be Aquantis and also thanks to all the people who come every day to dive with us.
