Join us for the Rescye Diver Course on Koh Tao and develop your personal confidence as a diver and learn how to deal with divers and snorkellers in distress. 

What is the Rescue Diver Course?

If you have competed a First Aid Course within the previous 2 years then you may not need to do the React Right Program, which will save you 4,000 THB. 

The course is available to anyone certified Open Water or more and aged 12 years and older with basic swimming ability that is medically fit, or else has a doctors approval for diving. If unsure we can easily get this done here on Koh Tao for 250 THB.

What's included in the Stress & Rescue Diving Course?

Diving requires a number of things to be done correctly, and everything you need is included. There are no hidden costs. 

Dive Your Way!

All instruction takes place in our Beach Bar and Restaurant unless otherwise requested, and in a maximum group size of 4 students to 1 Instructor.

If smaller instruction is desired, please request this by email and we are happy to arrange - we often have people enjoying their honeymoon on Koh Tao who would prefer a more personalized trip.

Likewise, we often get divers that are a bit nervous and would sooner be in smaller groups.

Whatever the reason - no problem!!! Simply let us know and we can help you out

The Schedule

Please read below to see information regarding each of these dives;

Upon arrival we shall collect you from the pier and bring you to our shop, and help you getting to your accommodation, and then start your first aid program if needed. 

The morning is used for covering the Rescue Diver theory with your instructor. Then in the afternoon we head to the boat to complete some shallow water training exercises, where you will deal with panicked snorkellers, divers, and more...

Again the morning is used for the Rescue Diving theory, and the Rescue Dive Exam. Then in the afternoon we head to the boat to complete some training scenarios as well as your "Hell Dive" - a dive where everything that can go wrong will go wrong!

The timing on this training session can vary between morning or afternoon depending on the individual. During this session you will assume the position of responsibility on the boat, dealing with all scenarios as they arise to test your retention of the past few days.
