Why take the Divemaster course with us in Pattaya Thailand?
You will be training on the Pattaya islands, Samae san islands, Jomtien beach, you will be diving in swimming pools, diving off our 12 metre speed boats, large chartered boats.

You will get the chance to try different types of diving such as wreck diving, deep diving, drift diving etc. You will use equipment you probably haven’t used before, like full face masks, side mounts and dive propulsion vehicles.

We feel the Divemaster course should be a fun learning experience with a lot of laughter and jokes but placing the emphasis on safety, professionalism with great dives and training.
For us as experienced Instructors; if your “Divemasters know what they are doing and are having fun, then everyone is happy”
After diving there is always something to do in Pattaya whether it’s going out to restaurants, movies or * bars and *nightclubs (* just as long as you’re not diving the next day). We have Instructors/Divemasters/staff/customers which you can tag a long with and show you around the town. We also have our BBQ nights and ceremony nights at the dive center which are always fun.
