THE REFRESH

Theory and confined-water skills practice

The program concentrates on revisiting core theory and rehearsing basic scuba techniques in confined, controlled water so divers regain confidence and readiness for subsequent dives.

THE FORMAT

A focused half-day session

Designed as a short, intensive session, the Scuba Review is delivered in a single, roughly 2½-hour block to refresh skills without a full-day commitment.

THE SETTING

Tarifa’s training convenience

Delivered in Tarifa by Yellow Submarine, the review uses confined-water environments and classroom-style refreshers to deliver practical, hands-on repetition in a compact timeframe.
