⚓ The PADI Wreck Diver Specialty is perfect for divers who want to safely explore sunken ships, aircraft and other underwater structures. 🌊 Wrecks offer a fascinating glimpse into history while also becoming thriving artificial reefs, attracting an incredible variety of marine life. 🪸🐠
🌍 From purpose-sunk ships to historic wrecks reclaimed by the sea, wreck diving offers a unique blend of adventure, history and marine life. This course gives you the skills and confidence to explore these incredible underwater sites safely.
📚 Before your dives, you'll complete the PADI eLearning at your own pace. Then, over four training dives across two days 🤿, you'll learn how to safely navigate around wrecks, map a site, identify hazards and, under the guidance of your PADI Instructor, plan and carry out limited wreck pe*******on using specialist techniques.

🚨Challenge yourself and become a diver others can rely on. The PADI Rescue Diver course develops the confidence, awareness and practical skills to recognise problems early and respond effectively.
📚 Through PADI eLearning, pool sessions and realistic open water rescue scenarios, you'll practise everything from self-rescue, assisting tired or panicked divers and managing emergency situations, to locating missing divers and rescuing an unresponsive diver. Every scenario is designed to build your confidence through practical experience in a fun, supportive environment.
🌊 By the end of the course, you'll be a more aware, capable and confident diver, with stronger situational awareness, better problem-solving skills and the ability to look after both yourself and your dive buddies.
🎓 Your PADI Rescue Diver certification is recognised worldwide and is an essential step towards PADI Divemaster and other professional-level training. It also demonstrates to dive centres around the world that you've developed advanced safety, rescue and dive management skills.
