Salvamento y Rescate / Rescue Diver

Rescue-level training is available through both FEDAS (Salvamento y Rescate) and PADI/SSI (Rescue Diver), which means you can cross-certify or pick the system that matches your existing card. The course is taught by instructors holding relevant rescue certifications across agencies — Ramón Villanueva at IN3* with PADI, SSI and FEDAS qualifications leads the professional side of the team.

Practical sessions work from pool drills through to open water scenarios. The club includes Soporte Vital Básico y RCP (basic life support and CPR) as a separate FEDAS module, which is either a prerequisite or complementary course depending on your existing training — contact them to confirm the sequence for your certification path.

This is the level where Cristalsub's insistence on low student-to-instructor ratios becomes most visible: rescue scenarios require genuine instructor attention that can't be stretched across large groups. They've been explicit about this across all their communication.
