Hydrate and eat light before diving

No flying within 12 hours after diving
Follow the operator’s guidance and PADI recommendations: wait at least 12 hours before air travel after a single day of diving.
Practice reef etiquette
Don’t touch or feed marine life and avoid kneeling on delicate substrate; good buoyancy protects both you and the reef.
Mask and snorkel
Familiar, well-fitting mask makes confined-water drills and surface intervals more comfortable.
Dive computer or timing device
A computer helps monitor depth and no-decompression limits during the check dive.
5mm wetsuit or shorty
Water temperatures range roughly 18–25°C—choose a suit thickness that keeps you comfortable during practice dives.
