PADI Rescue Diver Certification

The PADI Rescue Diver course is the first course in the PADI training scheme where you start to look at other divers and not just yourself. To start this course you need to have completed the PADI advanced open water course and have a mínimum of 25 logged dives and have up-to-date first aid training.

The course itself is based around 3 sections:

1. Knowledge development and exam (Available in book or e-learning).

2. Pool sessions.

3. Open water scenarios.

The course can take as little as three days provided that all the knowledge development is finished prior to arrival at PV Ocean Tours. In those three days, you will learn to apply all the information covered in the Knowledge section in our private swimming pool. Then, on to the ocean to put it all into practice. We aim to teach this course to our high standards as more rescue divers in the water is good for every one. This course will include everything you need to know to keep yourself and others safe:

So, come and improve your skills and put them to the test with us. After all ocean scenarios there will be plenty of time to enjoy the dives to the fullest, making it the perfect course.
