🎁 WHAT IF DIVING TALKS COULD TAKE YOUR DIVING TO THE NEXT LEVEL?

AREA9 IS MAKING IT POSSIBLE! 🤿

As if three days of extraordinary diving stories, knowledge, inspiration and connections weren't enough, AREA9 is giving Diving Talks 2026 attendees another reason to BE THERE!

And this one could change the way you dive forever.

🎁 THE AREA9 EXCLUSIVE GIVEAWAY

ONE LUCKY DIVING TALKS ATTENDEE WILL WIN A GUE RECREATIONAL CLASS FOR TWO PEOPLE!

Yes, TWO divers. ONE incredible learning experience.

The winners will be able to choose between:
🔹 GUE Performance DiverAREA9 will cover
🔹 GUE Fundamentals Recreational

And AREA9 is taking care of the training and equipment during the course, including breathing gas and cylinders!

Whether you're looking to refine your skills, improve your control and awareness underwater, or discover a new approach to diving, this is an opportunity to invest in something that stays with you long after the course ends: becoming a better diver.

Because the best diving equipment you'll ever own is your knowledge.

WHO CAN WIN?

The draw is exclusively for Diving Talks attendees. The winner and their chosen diving partner must already be certified divers (from any training agency) and non-smokers.

ANOTHER REASON TO BE THERE!

At Diving Talks, our sponsors don't just support an event. They help create opportunities for the diving community.

And AREA9 is doing exactly that.

They've swapped the dive boat for Cordoaria Nacional, their fins for sneakers, and their regulators for ear-to-ear smiles! 😁

After all, they've discovered that DIVING TALKS 2026 is the only dive where you can explore incredible depths without even getting your feet wet! 🌊

Afinal, descobriram que o DIVING TALKS 2026 é o único mergulho onde se pode descer a grandes profundidades sem sequer molhar os pés! 🌊

⚡ THREE PERSPECTIVES. ONE UNDERWATER WORLD.

What does diving mean to you?

Freedom? Discovery? A connection with nature? The opportunity to make a difference?

At Diving Talks 2026, our Sunday Lightning Talks will remind us that the underwater world has as many stories as there are people willing to explore it.

Three speakers. Three perspectives. Short presentations with ideas that go far beyond diving.

♿ ERCAN TUTAL — Diving Is Freedom

What if the underwater world could offer a kind of freedom that everyday life sometimes cannot?

Ercan shares the transformative possibilities of adaptive diving and how access to the underwater world can open extraordinary experiences to people with disabilities.

🪸 TIFFANY DUONG — The Mystery of the Reef That Won't Die

What if a coral reef refused to behave the way science expected?

Off the coast of Tela, Honduras, a remarkable reef continues to thrive despite environmental pressures that threaten reefs around the world.

Tiffany takes us into a real-life ocean mystery, exploring the research behind a reef that challenges our understanding of coral resilience.

🌊 CRISTIAN PELLEGRINI — DAN Europe

An additional perspective from DAN Europe, one of the organisations working to advance diving safety, research and education.

Three speakers. Three different stories. One extraordinary underwater world.

Because diving isn't just about where we go.

It's about what we discover, what we learn and what becomes possible when we go beneath the surface.

📅 Sunday, October 25 · 12:50
📍 Cordoaria Nacional, Lisbon

⚡ LIGHTNING TALKS. BIG IDEAS.
