Get Comfortable Underwater Again
Been away from diving for a while or simply feeling a little rusty? A SCUBA Refresher gives certified divers dedicated pool time with an Underwater World Dive Professional to review skills, rebuild comfort, and prepare to get back in the water.
Your refresher is built around you. We'll review the fundamental skills every diver should be comfortable with while spending additional time on the areas where you want the most practice.
What to Expect
Skills You Can Review
Your Dive Professional will help you review fundamental SCUBA procedures and identify any areas where additional practice would be helpful.
- Equipment setup and pre-dive checks
- Entries and exits
- Regulator and mask skills
- Buoyancy control
- Underwater positioning and movement
- Air-sharing and other emergency skills
- Any additional fundamental skills you would like to practice
How the Refresher Works
The refresher includes approximately two hours of confined-water training with an Underwater World Divemaster or Instructor.
Rather than following a rigid certification-course schedule, the session can focus additional time on the skills where you need the most review or practice.
Equipment and Materials
All SCUBA and snorkeling equipment required for the refresher is provided for your session.
Refresher eLearning is also included to help review important diving knowledge, procedures, and safety concepts before returning to regular diving.
After Your Refresher
After completing your session, your Dive Professional can document the refresher in your dive log.
A refresher does not create a new SCUBA certification. It is a review designed to help an already-certified diver return to the water with renewed comfort and familiarity with fundamental skills.

Frequently asked questions
How long should I be out of the water before taking a refresher?
There is no need to wait for a specific amount of time. If you have been away from diving or simply do not feel completely comfortable with your skills, a refresher is a good way to practice before returning to open-water diving.
Do I need to bring my own SCUBA equipment?
No. All required SCUBA and snorkeling equipment is provided for the refresher session.
Is this a new certification?
No. A SCUBA Refresher is designed for already-certified divers. Your Dive Professional can document completion of the refresher in your dive log, but it does not replace or change your existing SCUBA certification.
Can we work on a specific skill?
Yes. The session includes a review of fundamental diving skills, but additional time can be spent on areas where you feel rusty or would like more practice.
