Description

Get yourself back into underwater world with our Padi Re-Activate Course! Only taking about 1.5 hours to complete, why not go for a dive right after refreshing your skills! Hilo has a lot of fantastic dive sites to choose from, for beginners and advanced divers, so why not book a shore or boat dive right afterwards! Our experienced divemasters and instructors will make sure you have a safe and fun experience during and after your refresher!

The SCUBA Re-Activate course consists of a small eLearning course before attending, so you can quickly refresh your diving knowledge! Once you are done with your eLearning you can get started in the pool with your Divemaster and practice assembling your gear, predive safety checks, mask removal and replacement, emergency weight drop, neutral buoyancy and hovering, and alternate air source use and ascent, and any other underwater skills you want to practice! After that you will receive a brand new ReActivated certification card from PADI!

Please Note

If you do not finish your eLearning and paperwork, you will not receive a new certification card until it is complete. If you do not complete your paperwork before attending it will come out of your class time and will be an extra $50 to make up for the wasted time.
