Rewarding and fun - the PADI Rescue Diver course is a 4-day course, which is an important step in expanding the Advanced Open Water Divers knowledge and experience. This performance-based course will involve knowledge development presentations, pool, confined or open water rescue skill development followed by 4 open water rescue training scenarios.
Upon successful completion of the course, the student is certified as a PADI Rescue Diver and qualifies for further training as a PADI Divemaster.
There is also a Rescue Review available for those with previous Rescue training that perhaps completed their course some time ago and want a refresher. This can also be combined with a Scuba Review to refresh the basic diving skills as well.
