Want to travel and see the world?

Becoming a PADI Instructor is a great way to see the world while doing what you love most..Scuba Diving.

Who is a PADI Instructor? A PADI instructor can be someone from all walks of life. Thats what makes Scuba Instructors so different and interesting.
From the 20 year old who is taking a gap year to travel the world, working as a dive Instructor to finance the Adventure, to the 55 year old retired professional, who decides enough is enough and its now high time I start enjoying myself by doing something I love. It may be a diver who loves what she does and is ready to take a huge leap by opening her own dive school!
The one thing all PADI professionals have in common is the love for the Sea.

The theory for this course is completed online, so can start straight away on the theory. The practical part of your course is run over an 7 day period, with the next PADI Instructor training course starting on 23 April 2025.
Whatever your background or your nationality we will teach you the skills you need to become a PADI Professional .Expect a very intense, hard but rewarding few days! You will need to be very focused and physically fit!  As a PADI Instructor you will be responsible for others in the water, so you need to be a very confident diver yourself, in great physical shape with the right mind set needed to take on this responsibility.

As a PADI Instructor you will be teaching all ages, and students of different abilities, so you need to be able to adapt and handle different situations in a professional but fun way. After all your students are doing this for Fun!
