Scuba Refresher
Got a tropical trip coming up but feeling a little rusty? Spend a few hours with one of our dive professionals who will inspect your gear for you, reacquaint you with gear assembly and care, and go over the the most important scuba skills such as mask clearing, buoyancy control, and emergency procedures. The course is perfect for the vacationing once-a-year diver. Many divers take this class each year before their annual dive trip. All the gear you need is provided, however it is strongly recommended each diver own their own mask and fins. We have these available for sale if needed.

Optional Add On: PADI ReActivate online course to refresh academic concepts.
PADI ReActivate is an approximately 3 hour online course and is an ideal add on for warm water divers who dive once or twice a year and have a trip coming up or perhaps have taken a few years off from diving. You will receive a new PADI C-card with your "ReActivated" date on it. It is great for people who have lost their certification cards. ReActivate is a $92 add-on to option 1 above. (Now available to both PADI and non-PADI certification holders. Proof of prior certification required.)
Just add PADI ReActivate to your card at checkout.
Option 2: A full PADI Open Water Course audit.
Have only a few dives and/or haven't dived for several years? You may want to consider an audit of an entire PADI Open Water Course just as if you are a new student. Ideal for certified divers who have taken several years off of diving or had very few dives to begin with. You will join an Open Water Course and attend each pool and open water dive as if you were a new student including completing the PADI eLearning online academics program.
See our PADI Open Water Course page for dates and sign up for the class just as if you were a new student.
