Rescue Diver and EFR Course

Become a Rescue Diver on Koh Tao

Scuba diving is a very safe sport . But nothing in the world is safe 100%..so even when highly unlikely - what IF something happens ? Well, even then diving incidents mostly cause no serious damage. And this is usually the merit of qualified divers, which assess the situation and intervene in an emergency. These are the Rescue Divers

Our Rescue Diver Course takes three days. The course consists of a day in the pool and theoretical instruction in the classroom. We will also do four dives in the sea. These dives are a combination of Rescue Diver training (eg of simulated rescue scenarios) and “Fun diving”.

The Rescue Diver Course is a crucial step for your dive education , for example if you want to be prepared for an unpleasant situation or if you are planning your first step into professional diving . This course is recommended for every diver!
Thus, the course offers the perfect combination of safety exercises and the real reason of diving: to have fun. And we promise you fun! Some of our Rescue Instructors are very good (Hollywood?) actors and they LOVE to act and play. And that’s always very amusing for the other divers on the boat ;) But..no more hints – find out yourself. It’s one of the most enjoyable courses!

For your Rescue Diver Course you need to have participated in a First Aid Course, within the last two years.. Please bring a written proof of this. Alternatively, we also offer you an EFR (Emergency First Responder = First Aid ) Course right here at Go And Dive. This course you can complete one day before the Rescue Diver Course.

Please contact us IN ADVANCE (important!), so we can organize your Rescue Diver Course for you.
