Rescue Diver

The PADI Rescue Diver course can best be described as “challenging” and “rewarding”. Building upon what you’ve learned, this course expands on what you already know about how to prevent problems, and how to manage them if they occur.

The Excitement

The fun part about this course is rising to challenges and mastering them. You’ll build your confidence as a diver, gain valuable experience in emergency prevention and management, and heighten your awareness of the surrounding environment. Most divers find this course both demanding and rewarding, and at the end, say it’s the best course they’ve ever taken.

The Experience

You’ll learn:

• Self rescue
• Recognizing and managing stress in other divers

• Rescuing panicked divers
• Rescuing unresponsive divers

You’ll benefit by:

• Continuing to become a safer diver
