WHEN will I be ready?
The PADI Self-Reliant course comprises 5 dives over the course of 2 or 3 days.
WHY should I be excited?
Have you always wanted to experience the exhilarating feeling of being alone underwater?
Perhaps you need to remove yourself from the crowd to get the perfect shot with your camera, and it’s not always convenient to remain close to your buddy?
That’s where the PADI Self-Reliant course comes into play.
HOW do I do it?
Although PADI makes use of the buddy system in almost all scenarios, taking this course will give you the added confidence to dive safely on your own.
