Get Back in the Water with Confidence

A long break from scuba diving can make even an experienced diver feel a little rusty. A refresher dive in Aqaba gives you the opportunity to review the skills you already learned and become comfortable underwater again before joining regular fun dives.

At Aqaba Moon Diving Center, we keep the session relaxed and focused on your individual experience. We begin with a short review, check your equipment and then practice important scuba skills in suitable shallow water before continuing with a guided dive.

If you are planning to continue diving after your refresher, you can join our certified diver fun diving program in Aqaba and explore the Red Sea with a local guide.
