The Importance of Being a Rescue Diver

The PADI Rescue Diver course is one of the more popular and often a diver’s favorite course, not to mention it is a valuable asset to anyone spending a little time under the sea. Despite your intentions as a diver, if you are the once-a-year diver or the everyday plunger, a rescue course is always a good idea. During the rescue course you will learn more in-depth rescue procedures, practicing scenarios and search patterns and learning how to help yourself and others in less than perfect situations. The skills and methods that are taught in the Rescue Course are invaluable to you as a diver. Whether you dive independent of a professional or always use a DM,  having rescue training will come in handy and will make you more comfortable and confident as a diver.
