Refresh your dive skills on Gili Trawangan before your next fun dive.
Scuba tune up
Been a while since your last dive? Refresh your scuba skills on Gili Trawangan before joining fun dives around the Gili Islands.
The Refresher Dive Course at Manta Dive is designed for certified divers who want to rebuild confidence, review essential scuba skills, and enjoy a relaxed first dive back in the ocean. It combines a short theory recap, equipment setup and review, pool practice, and one ocean refresher dive around the Gilis.
It is a good choice if you are already certified but have not dived for a while, feel a little nervous about getting back in the water, or want a calm skills tune-up before more scuba diving on Gili T.
REFRESHER COURSE SCHEDULE
Refresher Dive prerequisites
This refresher is for people who already hold a scuba diving certification. It is not designed for first-time divers.
You should be:
- A certified diver, such as an Open Water Diver or equivalent
- At least 10 years old
- Ready to show or share your certification details before diving
- Comfortable returning to the water with support from a dive professional
- Medical questionnaire: if you are taking any medication or if you have had any heart, lung or ear problems you may need to have your doctor sign off before you can dive. This needs to be arranged before you arrive. Simply contact us for a questionnaire.
If you have not dived for more than a year and do not have much recent diving experience, we recommend taking this refresher before joining regular fun dives. It gives you time to review the basics, practice in the pool, and make your first ocean dive back feel calmer and safer.
What you’ll learn
- Scuba theory and equipment recap
You’ll review the key knowledge needed for a safe return to diving, including equipment setup, pressure and equalisation, buoyancy basics, underwater communication, and general dive safety.
- Confined-water skills refresh
You’ll practise essential scuba skills in the pool before going back into the ocean. This includes underwater breathing, equalising, mask clearing, regulator recovery, and buoyancy control.
- Ocean refresher dive
You’ll apply your refreshed skills during one ocean dive around the Gilis. This helps you move from pool practice back into real diving conditions with support from the Manta Dive team.
- Confidence for future fun dives
By the end of the session, you should feel more comfortable with your equipment, your basic skills, and your first dive back after time away from scuba diving.
What Course Comes Next?
After your Refresher Dive, you’ll be ready to continue scuba diving around Gili Trawangan with more confidence.
- Join us for fun dives
Most divers continue with fun dives around the Gili Islands to make sure those newly refreshed skills stay locked in.
- Keep building your skills
If the refresher makes you want to keep learning, ask us about continuing with a specialty course such as the Advanced Course, Deep Diver, Nitrox, or advanced-level training.
- Not sure what to book?
Send us your certification level, when you last dived, and how confident you feel. We’ll help you choose between a refresher, fun dives, or further training.
