It is a method to know the underwater position by underwater terrain.
In places with a lot of diving experience, it is possible to determine the underwater position fairly accurately.
The easy-to-use marks are as follows.
|
|
●Terrain and structures
Great obstruction, rock, drop-off, artificial reef, wreck, etc. are good landmarks. |
Drop-off |
Artificial reef |
Wreck |

|
●Geology
The geology changes towards the offshore and becomes "Stone" → "Big rock" → "Sand". |
|
|
|
●Creature
Fishes that ives around rock do not travel a long distance in a short time.
As corals and soft corals do not disappear in a short time, there become good landmarks. |
