Take the first steps on the professional path of diving with the
Divemaster Course.

As a certified Divemaster, you may supervise and assist with both training and non training dive activities in a variety of environments. Dive Centres and Resorts employ Divemasters to help with classes as well as lead guided dive tours off boats or the shore. You may also conduct the Discover Local Diving experience and Scuba Review programme for certified divers. Nondivers may also enjoy a visit to the underwater world under your supervision during Discover Snorkelling experience and Skin Diver course.

The course is divided into academic lectures and pool sessions for Divemaster Candidates - times can be arranged to suit your needs. Courses can start any time, according to your schedule.

The hands on experience involves:
* assisting on one Open Water Dive Course and one other dive course of your choice
* establish emergency plans for dive emergencies

PROGRAMME OVERVIEW
The goals of the PADI Divemaster Course are as follows:

  • To enable the candidate to organise, conduct and supervise diving
    activities, both land and boat based.

  • To enable the candidate to act effectively as an instructional assistant to a certified PADI Instructor.

  • To develop the candidates theoretical diving knowledge to a level sufficient
    to become an Instructor.

  • To encourage and prepare the candidate for Instructor Training.
     

The rewards for being a PADI Divemaster, in terms of personal satisfaction and achievement, are unparalleled. The decision to pursue this goal is to be commended, and it is our hope that this course will only be the beginning of a journey that will take the serious diver into an entirely different realm of diving - the realm of the professional.
