You love diving and would like to do it as often as possible, but this is not always possible. It may be that your break from diving is longer than six months. You must admit that it is a good idea to recall all your skills and make sure that you still feel confident underwater. That’s why the PADI ReActivate program was created to help you get back into diving. If you’ve had a long break from diving, be sure to take a quick reminder before jumping into the ocean.
Scuba diving is a wonderful and safe form of recreation. However, to make sure you remember perfectly how to use your diving equipment and what procedures apply to recreational diving, you should go through this brief refresher.
Anyone wishing to engage in recreational diving must present a scuba license or its number for online verification. Equally important is your logbook with recorded dives. To maintain our high standards of service and to ensure your safety, you must provide proof that your last dive was no more than six months ago. If your break in diving was longer than six months, you will need to briefly review the rules, theory and some practical skills.
You can complete the PADI ReActivate™ program through online training and short pool classes, or complete the theory and pool classes on-site at our dive center. If you choose the e-learning program, you can save time by studying while traveling or at your leisure. If you have additional questions, please contact us to find the right solution.
The price of the refresher training in our diving center: 59$

You probably remember well from your PADI Open Water Diver course that diving is a completely safe form of recreation as long as you follow the rules. However, in the rush of everyday tasks, work and home responsibilities, something might have slipped your mind.
If you haven’t had a chance to jump into the water for a few months, it’s a good idea to remind yourself of all the basics, which is why it’s so important to practice all the rules before diving into the ocean. This is simply essential for your safety and comfort.
Refresher training consists of two parts. The first is a short theory to make sure that you remember all the rules and basics of diving physics. You can do this part on your own using the specially prepared online training.
The second part is a pool exercise using dive equipment and an instructor. During this class you will practice the rules of operating the dive equipment and how to behave during and after the dive. Your instructor will also tell you about the specifics of diving in Costa Rica and the safety rules on our boat.
We have compiled answers to frequently asked questions about our PADI ReActivate™ Scuba Refresher Program in Costa Rica. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact us.
Diving is a very enjoyable and safe form of recreation. And we want it to stay that way. That’s why we want your knowledge and confidence to be at the right level when you jump into the ocean. This is not only our standard, but more importantly the standard of the PADI organization. If you have taken a break from diving for more than 6 months, the dive center is required to conduct refresher training before accepting you for a dive.
During the refresher class, we will use the standard recreational diving equipment that you have already learned in the PADI Open Water Diver course. There will be no new equipment because the PADI ReActivate™ Scuba Refresher Program classes are designed to practice the knowledge you already have.
Your PADI ReActivate™ Scuba Refresher Program training will be confirmed by your instructor in your logbook. This will include the date of training, scope of training, location of training and instructor details. Of course you can take the refresher training at any training center in the world. If you don’t want to waste time on vacation, it may be a good idea to do refresher training before you leave. If your logbook shows training within the last 12 months, there is no need to repeat it.
