Scuba divers describe the PADI Rescue Diver course as the most challenging – yet most rewarding – course they’ve ever taken. Why? Because you learn to prevent and manage problems in the water and become more confident in your skills as a diver, knowing that you can help others if needed.
During the course, you learn to become a better buddy by practicing problem solving skills until they become second nature. Plus, the course is just fun – albeit it’s serious fun – and it allows for lots of laughter in between the focused learning.
PADI (Junior) Adventure Divers who are at least 12 years old and have completed the Underwater Navigation Adventure Dive may enroll in the Rescue Diver course. All students need to have completed Emergency First Response Primary and Secondary Care (CPR and First Aid) training within the past 24 months. If they haven't completed it prior to enrolling, students can complete this training during the Rescue Diver course. Your instructor may also offer the PADI Emergency Oxygen Provider specialty course at the same time.
- PADI certifications are accepted Worldwide.
- Lasts a lifetime, doesn't expire.
- No renewal, no subscription and no fees.
- Self Rescue Skills
- Become a better dive partner.
We aim to provide the highest level of training, and that starts with our small class sizes (maximum student-instructor ratio of 4:1) and highly-trained instructors. All training conducted at the Aloha Scuba Dive Shop classroom or from the shore (location TBD by your instructor).

- Knowledge Development with eLearning.
- Practical Rescue Scenarios
