The PADI
Rescue Diver

Description

The PADI Rescue Diver course is a pivotal step in expanding your knowledge and experience. As a Rescue Diver you will learn to look beyond yourself to consider the safety and well-being of other divers. This is why the PADI Rescue Diver certification is a prerequisite for all PADI leadership-level training (PADI Divemaster, Assistant Instructor, and Open Water Scuba Instructor).
