What To Expect
Upskill yourself with a Refresher Course!
It is easy for dive skills to get rusty and for divers to lose confidence when you have not dived for a while, so why not take the stress away by updating your skills on a Refresher Course. This course provides you with the opportunity to review and practice necessary scuba skills that you learned in your original Open Water Diver program under the guidance of a Dive Professional.
Your instructor will review the knowledge you learned in your Open Water Diver course and they will also cover any new material you should know about. You will review dive planning, dive skills and dive execution to keep you safe during future diving activities.
The refresher course starts at 8:30am at our dive shop. Contact us if you prefer an afternoon course. Our scheduling is flexible.
