Rescue Diver course
This is a course that expands your skills/knowledge on how to prevent problems and, if necessary, how to manage them.
Based on diving skills acquired in previous courses we focus now on being able to treat common problems and their management. Since it is essential to be able to react appropriately in the underwater environment, this course is of the utmost importance. The Rescue Diver course is a dynamic course specialized on how to manage and prevent any problematic under water situation. It will help develop and expand knowledge in safety while diving and learning how to react in the right way.
What you will learn will improve, as well as the level of your skills, your confidence, and it will prepare you to take the next steps toward the Master Scuba Diver and Divemaster.
