The Northern Underwater Explorers Pool Refresher will help you hone essential skills such as equipment assembly and disassembly, hand signals, buoyancy control techniques, and emergency protocols for out-of-air situations.
Pool & Open Water Refresher
Course overview
This all-inclusive refresher program features one pool dive followed by two open water dives, spanning a two-day period—classroom and pool training on the first day, and ocean diving on the second.
The Northern Underwater Explorers Pool Refresher will help you hone essential skills such as equipment assembly and disassembly, hand signals, buoyancy control techniques, and emergency protocols for out-of-air situations, all facilitated by one of our experienced PADI Instructors. After completing your refresher, your instructor can sign your logbook, or we can issue a letter (upon request) confirming your refresher training.
Additionally, the Ocean Refresher allows you to reacquaint yourself with the local underwater landscape through two ocean dives alongside your personal PADI Instructor.
Optional PADI Reactivate
For an extra $103.00, you can choose to add the PADI Reactivate program. This program includes Reactivate eLearning, which refreshes your theoretical knowledge, as well as a new, updated certification card.
Price Includes:
- Small student-to-instructor ratios – typically one-on-one (capped at 3 students)
- Custom scheduling options at no extra cost
- One pool session – approximately 1 hour of in-water training
- All necessary pool equipment (including regulator, BCD, tank, weights, and wetsuit)
- Two ocean dives
- Drysuit, undergarments, hood, boots, gloves, regulator, weight-integrated BCD, weights, tanks, and dive computer

When combined with fleece glove liners, this system is highly effective for warmth in our local waters. If you already possess fleece gloves, you can simply acquire the Marigold gloves separately. Northern Underwater Explorers also offers quality Scuba Force Glove Liners if you don’t own fleece gloves.
