The protection you need as you fuel your passion for diving locally.
Even if your country has a robust national healthcare system, it likely does not provide the specialised knowledge, consultancy and assistance required for diving injuries or planning, nor does it likely fully cover hyperbaric therapy should the need arise.
Our Dive Local insurance will fully cover you in the event of a local diving accident, saving you money over our regular travel-centric insurance plans.
And when you start travelling again, you can always upgrade to a higher plan.
This plan is designed to cover you should the unforeseen happen, during your recreational or professional diving - both SCUBA and freediving.
Benefits include:
- Alarm Center and management of medical emergencies 24/7
- Emergency medical treatment, including hyperbaric therapy and hospitalisation
- Annual DAN Membership
This represents a short summary of cover, featuring some of the many benefits available.
Exclusions and conditions may also apply, and cover may not be available in all countries.
