Who Should Take This Course?

The PADI ReActivate Scuba Refresher is ideal for certified divers who want to get back in the water safely and confidently. It is a great choice if you have not been diving in several months or years, are preparing for an upcoming dive trip, feel rusty with equipment setup or buoyancy, or want recent refresher documentation before traveling.

Many resorts, liveaboards, and dive operators recommend or require a recent refresher if you have not been diving in a while. Completing ReActivate before your trip helps you arrive more prepared, more comfortable, and ready to enjoy your dives.
