Q:
When do I need a refresher in the pool before the diving?
A:
You need a refresher
- if you have less than 15 logged dives
- if you have not been diving for more than 1 year

The cost of the pool refresher is $50; however, it will be completely reimbursed when applied to your diving expenses with us. |

We always do 2 dives on one trip whether inside or outside reef. This saves you some money since the marine park fee is per trip and not per dive. |
