The 10 Golden Rules of CMAS

Dive like your shadow, do not leave any trace and be a sensible part of the underwater world, not an alien.
Never enter the water through reed, living corals or water plants.

2. Keep distance from corals and other animals and do not stir up sediment.
3. Take care where you drop your anchor during boat dives.
4. Do not chase, touch or feed wild animals.
5. Do not spearfish for fun and do not buy or collect any souvenirs such as corals and shells.
