If your last dive was more than a year ago, take a half-day refresher with us before joining the recreational dives. It’s not a test — it’s a low-pressure pool session to remember how it all feels.
What’s covered
- Quick review of dive theory (no exam)
- Equipment assembly check
- Pool session: mask clearing, regulator recovery, neutral buoyancy
- One supervised dive at a calm local site
Most divers feel back to their old selves within the first ten minutes. The refresher is there so you don’t have to figure that out at depth.
Looking for “PADI Scuba Review” or “PADI Refresher”?
Same idea, same content — we use SSI Scuba Skills Update as the underlying programme. Any agency Open Water certification (PADI, SSI, NAUI, CMAS) is accepted; our instructors hold both PADI and SSI ratings. You’re back in the water within hours.
Veelgestelde vragen
Do I really need this if I dived two years ago?
If your last dive was more than 12 months ago, we strongly recommend it. It's not a test — it's a chance to remember how the gear feels and which valve does what before you're at 18 metres looking at a turtle.
