The calm clear waters of Malta and the relaxed atmosphere of Gozo are the ideal environment for building your stress and rescue skills. Stress is a major factor in diving accidents and rescues. This SSI Diver Stress & Rescue Specialty Course will teach you about accident prevention and help you to be better prepared for unexpected situations.
Goal of the Course
The experienced instructors of Endless Oceans Dive Centre Gozo will teach you to recognise and deal with stress, prevent accidents and safely handle emergency situations. By doing this course, you will increase your confidence as a diver as well as the confidence other divers have in you.
Meeting & Preparation
On the first day we meet either directly in our diving centre or we pick you up from your accommodation upon arrangement. Once you arrive at the centre, we first take care of the necessary paperwork. If you have chosen to hire the diving gear you will receive your rental equipment now. As soon as all participants are ready, we take our bus to the coast.
