Scuba Training

Courses from entry level to professional at our SSI / PADI Educational Dive Center

We are a SSI full service Instructor Trainer Facility. Our multilingual instructors and assistants are supervised by an SSI Director of Training to guarantee a continued level of high performance. Additionally, we offer a complete referral service. At the end of the training we will send you a letter advising you of your performance so you can plan your continued education. Our multilingual instructors and assistants are supervised by an SSI Director of Training to guarantee high performance levels.

All of our instructors are SSI and PADI certified but we practice the SSI philosophy. Because we have an in-house instructor trainer, you can be sure we will always have enough SSI Instructors for our customers. Also, if you need any help with your instructors finishing their certifications here, let us know...we are flexible and always ready to work.

For the referrals we do 4 open water dives from the beach. The last 2 can be done early in the morning so that the students can go on the regular dive trip that leaves at 11:30 AM. If we feel people are still not yet comfortable, we will send an instructor on their first ocean dive at no extra cost . We want to make sure they feel confident.

We have the standard ratio of 4 students per instructor as maximum, but if we just have one, the instruction will be one on one. This is not a problem.
