Do I need insurance for diving?
Whilst diving accidents are very much preventable and uncommon, we recommend that all divers be covered by diving insurance whenever and wherever they are diving to ensure that they have full access to medical emergency resources specific to diving accidents including hyerbaric chamber treatment, specialised medical knowledge and evacuation. Not all travel insurance provide these. We have partnered with DiveAssure to provide Diving Accident and Dive-Travel Insurance.
