Double Boat Dives: Skills then Play
The program includes two boat dives: an underwater skills review on the first dive and a second ‘fun dive’ that focuses on buoyancy and applying refreshed skills under supervision.
Quick Theory and Gear Assembly
A brief theory review and a hands‑on gear assembly tutorial prepare you to dive confidently; all necessary gear hire is included so you can focus on practice rather than packing equipment.
Flexible Learning and Nitrox
You can complete optional PADI ReActivate online theory beforehand on your phone, tablet or PC, and tanks are supplied with air or 32% Nitrox if you are Nitrox‑qualified.
What the day feels like
What the Refresher Feels Like
The day moves from concise classroom and confined‑water review into practical application: after a short knowledge refresh and kit‑up tutorial you practice fundamental skills in a confined water area or pool, then take those refreshed skills into two supervised boat dives—first a skills review, then a guided fun dive emphasizing buoyancy control.
