Pool ‘Check Out’ Dive

Although your diving certification is valid for life, Scuba World strongly recommends you dive at least six times per year to keep your skills proficient. A pool ‘check out’ dive consists of reviewing basic knowledge, skills and equipment handling techniques. This experience is perfect for divers who wish to refresh their skills before they dive the ex-HMAS Brisbane or Moololaba local reefs. After the successful completion of your boat dives a staff member will sign your logbook.

YOU MUST BOOK A DIVE ON THE WRECK OR LOCAL REEFS IN CONJUNCTION WITH A POOL CHECK OUT DIVE.
