How about a Scuba Review --- in salt water!

What is a Scuba Review Course?

The Scuba Review Tune-up will reacquaint you with diving so that you’re back to feeling comfortable in the underwater world. You can brush up on your scuba knowledge using the PADI Scuba Tune-up online. Then you’ll be ready to jump in the water and refresh your skills.

Why take this course?

If you haven’t been diving for three years or less, feel your scuba skills and knowledge are a bit rusty, heading to the islands to blow bubbles and want to feel more comfortable and prepared to dive when you arrive, then this course is for you!

What will you learn?

You’re A-1 instructor will provide a few equipment assembly reminders and then you'll enter the water. Once in the water he/she will demonstrate a specific skill and then ask you to repeat it. Skills include: Buoyancy Control, Various Mask Skills, Emergency Procedures, Sharing Air Techniques, Ascents/Descents and several other skills that will help build your confidence, improve your comfort and get you ready for your upcoming adventure.
