Below the Surface, First Aid Matters: EFR First Aid with Lagos Divers.
Off the sun-bleached cliffs of Lagos, a practical EFR First Aid course is framed by the same marine places that draw divers here: kaleidoscopic corals, busy reefs and the chance to meet a famously intelligent local octopus. The program is run by Lagos Divers and folds classroom and field-context awareness into a single, 24-hour offering, giving participants both the skills to help and a visceral connection to the coastal environment that makes those skills matter.
