The refresher consists of 2 sections:
Knowledge Development
Complete the PADI Reactivate Quick Review.
You will meet your Divemaster prior to the dive boat departing and review your Reactivate Quick review.
Then you will discuss the skills you will be expected to master underwater.
Open Water training
Your Scuba Refresher will be conducted at a suitable dive site around Koh Tao. The selection of the dive site will depend on a number of factors including weather and our diving schedule.
Once you have refreshed the shallow water skills your Divemaster will take you on a dive (air supply permitting) to finish things off when you will have an opportunity to apply the skills you have just refreshed!
Prerequisites to enroll on a Scuba Refresher
To embark on this exciting adventure and refresh your skills as a diver, there are a series of requirements:
- Be a certified Diver holding at least an Open Water diver certification.

- Minimum age: You have to be at least 10 years old to be eligible to enroll on a scuba refresher.
Why Choose PADI for a Scuba Review?
PADI dive centers must adhere to the highest training standards and customer service levels in the dive industry.
PADI is the most recognized agency worldwide when it comes to recreational diving courses, with hundreds of agencies around the world, PADI is established in more countries than any other agency.
In short, if you go to a small island in the middle of the ocean and there is a diving school, it is most likely PADI.
PADI is the only training agency whose curriculum is written by educational authors, using tried, tested and trusted learning philosophies adapted for scuba diving.
The PADI system is performance-based, not time-based.
What this means is you will have to earn your certification, and you can’t buy it!
Please keep in mind that we are going to ask you to do more than other dive centers and agencies. On the bright side, this will mean you will receive a higher quality training course and will be much better prepared as a certified scuba diver.
PADI is the only agency that conducts customer satisfaction surveys to ensure that its dive professionals are meeting the highest standards of education and safety, while other agencies only ask diving instructors or schools to manage their own standards.
