You may only access and use our website for no other purpose than to view our goods and services for your personal purposes and to transact lawful and authorised business with Global Dive.

Course Booking Conditions

You must complete a dive medical statement before you redeem your OW manual code. This may indicate the need for you to complete a dive medical by a physician prior to any in water training. It does not need to be from a New Zealand based physician, but must be on the prescribed diving medical form.

The course fee is non-refundable unless you fail your medical and give us sufficient notice .

If after booking your dive course and paying your deposit you fail a dive medical (i.e. you are found to have a medical condition that will prevent you from diving) then we will happily provide you with a refund, but you must do this prior to redeeming your OW manual code and give us at least 5 days notice prior to the scheduled start of your dive course and provide us with a copy of your physician’s medical statement. Once you redeem your OW code, or if you advise us less than 5 days before the start of your dive course, we are unable to provide refunds for failed medicals or other reasons.

If you miss a session or are late for your course you may need to do a catch-up session. Extra charges may apply.

If after you have booked or started a course you need to change your course dates, please speak with us as early as possible so we can try and accommodate your request.
