Be prepared for any unexpected emergencies with the Diver Stress & Rescue course. Diving on Koh Tao we are blessed with relatively easy conditions all year round, but this is certainly not the case in other diving destinations. So whether you are a regular diver looking to build confidence, awareness and enhance your safety, or you are taking the last leap before embarking on professional level training, then this course is for you.

Once you have completed your land based First Aid & CPR training, the Divers Stress and Rescue course will teach you all about accident prevention and how to handle situations that might occur in and around the water. Stress is a major contributor to rescue situations and diving accidents. During this full-on fun and exciting program, you will learn how to avoid, recognize and solve problems on the surface and underwater. Most students find this course fairly demanding, and while it may not be the easiest course it is likely to be the most gratifying. Many ex-students describe it as the best course they’ve ever taken.

The course runs for 2-3 days in which you will participate in both academic and in-water. Out in the water you will learn a myriad of new skills and situations, including self-rescue, diver stress, diver panic, underwater problems, emergency management and equipment considerations, missing diver procedures and how to handle an unconscious diver. You will also be presented with some simulated scenarios, where you get to put your new skills and know-how into practice. Challenging, yes, but also heaps of fun, and we’re sure you’ll love it.
