Diving & guidance

I don't have a buddy; can I still come snorkeling/diving/freediving/mermaiding?

No, you must always be accompanied by a buddy within the same discipline for diving, freediving, and snorkeling. If you don’t have a buddy, you can book a guided dive or guided snorkeling session via academy@todi.be.

Can I dive without a certification?

If you don’t have a diving certification, you can take an introductory dive through our Academy.

I have a diving certification but haven't dived in over 6 months; what now?

If you have a basic certification (Open Water Diver or equivalent), fewer than 20 dives, and your last dive was more than 6 months ago, it is mandatory to provide proof of a Scuba Skills Update. This can also be booked online.

If you are an Open Water Diver (or equivalent) and have more than 20 dives, we recommend taking our Scuba Skills Update refresher course, but it is not mandatory.
