ORLANDO SCUBA FIELD GUIDE
Breathe, See, and Speak Underwater: Orlando’s Ocean Reef Full-Face Mask Course
A one-day, ages-15+ program that teaches the Ocean Reef Integrated Dive Mask and underwater voice systems while logging confined- and open-water time toward the RAID Full Face Mask (Ocean Reef) Diver credential.
Breathe, See, and Speak Underwater: Orlando’s Ocean Reef Full-Face Mask Course.
In Orlando you can step into next‑generation scuba: the Ocean Reef Integrated Dive Mask (IDM) replaces the traditional bite‑mouthpiece with a full‑face seal that lets you breathe naturally, expands your field of vision, and adds real‑time voice communication beneath the surface.
Highlights
Outing Highlights
Natural breathing and lasting comfort
The IDM eliminates jaw fatigue and dry mouth by allowing natural breathing through nose and mouth, while the full‑face seal provides added warmth and a more relaxed underwater experience.
Panoramic underwater views
A wide‑angle lens opens peripheral sightlines that traditional masks hide, making it easier to spot marine life and maintain visual contact with your buddy.
Real‑time voice communication
The course introduces underwater communication systems that let you speak directly with an instructor or buddy in real time, reducing reliance on hand signals.
