The protection you need as a diver and traveller
Management of diving emergencies require specialised knowledge and skills, both on the medical and insurance side.
Whether you dive local or prefer to travel abroad, make sure a good dive insurance cover by a reliable provider is always on your checklist.
All Sport Plans are designed to cover you should the unforeseen happen, during your recreational or professional diving - both SCUBA and freediving - everywhere in the world.
We have three different Sport Plans on offer (Bronze, Silver, Gold) and extent of cover depends on the plan you choose.
In some countries outside the European Union, the only option available is the Sport Member plan, which is equivalent to the Sport Silver.
