PADI Scuba Review (Open Water Refresher) Course

Overview

The PADI Scuba Review is the perfect way for certified divers to update their diving knowledge and scuba skills after a period of inactivity.

Prerequisites

Hold a scuba diving certification from any internationally recognized agency (PADI, NAUI, etc.). Minimum age 10 years old.

Course Details

The course begins with a Knowledge Review segment that covers the basic safety information divers learn during their entry-level training. Divers use the Scuba Tune-up Guidebook during independent study to test their knowledge and then review any questions with a PADI Instructor.
