DIVE SAFETY

Diving involves physical activity in an environment hostile to human life. It requires a reasonable level of fitness and there are some medical conditions that make diving more risky. Australian standards require a "Fitness to dive medical" prior to learning to dive. However for the try scuba program ( try dive) you only need to complete a medical questionaire.

The South Pacific Underwater Medical Association (SPUMS) maintains a list of fully trained dive medical doctors. Ideally your dive medical should be completed by one of these doctors. However any trained doctor can complete the medical. We recommend you see your own doctor prior to coming to Merimbula. We can provide a standard examination form with information on the risks of diving to assist your doctor during the examination.

danWe offer DAN first aid and other safety courses .
