Important Health and Safety Information:
Prior to commencing your dive course, you are required to complete the self-assessment Student Diver Medical Declaration. A YES answer to any questions indicates there is a pre-existing condition which may affect your safety while diving and you must consult a medical practitioner, preferably with experience in diving medicine, to obtain a dive medical certificate that states you are medically fit to dive. Your medical must be completed before starting your practical training with Perth Scuba. 

Handy Tips

• Ask plenty of questions, our Instructors want to help you gain confidence as a diver and they are here for you.
• If anything is making you uncomfortable, let us know e.g. wetsuit too tight.
• Bring a reusable water bottle so you can drink lots of water and stay hydrated throughout the day.
• Don’t give up and stay positive! If you are having problems, you are not alone and we will help you through.
