Scuba Diving Refresher Course

The Scuba Diving Refresher Course at the Solitary Islands Marine Park is a two-day program designed to help certified divers regain confidence and refresh essential skills before returning to open water. The course begins with a pool session where participants practice important techniques such as mask clearing, regulator retrieval, and equipment setup and checks. This controlled environment allows divers to reacquaint themselves with the skills required for safe and enjoyable diving, while receiving guidance from experienced instructors. After building confidence in the pool, participants transition to a guided double dive at the Solitary Islands Marine Park, applying their refreshed skills in a real ocean setting while exploring vibrant marine life and stunning underwater landscapes. The course is ideal for anyone who has not dived for a while and wants to ensure a safe and confident return to the water.

The program includes full equipment hire and snacks on board during the dive days, including hot water for tea, coffee, or cup-a-soup and small servings of biscuits, with vegetarian soups available. Dives are guided by the Jetty Dive team, with the option of a private divemaster if specific circumstances require, which may incur additional charges. By default, the course is scheduled over two consecutive days, but the second day can be rescheduled if necessary. All ocean dives are subject to weather and availability, and proof of prior dive certification is required. This refresher course ensures divers feel confident, safe, and fully prepared for enjoyable underwater adventures.
