2 Day course includes 2 Nitrox dives  — US$350

Course includes diving equipment, Nitrox tanks, and use of all educational material. Nitrox "crew pack" available (2 x RDP tables/Oxygen exposure table/Enriched Air manual) - US$150

Other PADI Speciality Courses

PADI has a wide range of specialty courses on offer. You get a taste of different areas of diving during your Advanced Open Water course, and these advanced dives can count toward your specialties. However the specialty courses go into more detail than what you may have touched on in the advanced course. The various specialty courses include between 2 - 4 dives over 1 - 2 days.

I offer the following specialty courses:

From:  US$250

Specialty Course Prices - On request

Divemaster Course

There is probably no other term in diving with more diverse interpretation than Divemaster. This is where you start your PADI professional career, begin looking after other divers and taking your diving skills to new levels. The Course is intensive and if you undertake a DM course with me I will be there to help you all the way. The course involves a lot of dive theory in areas such as physics, physiology and decompression theory, dive skills, stamina tests, practical application and assisting with confined and open water dives from other PADI courses. That means working with students from DSD right through to Specialties and Rescue. It is best to take your time, gaining in water experience will help you learn as much as possible about diving. A well trained divemaster should be able to become an instructor the next day.

Taking a divemaster course requires a serious commitment from you, and in many ways is more of a lifestyle than a diving course. You can contact me to discuss your options and ask for more details about becoming a PADI Divemaster.

Course duration: There are two options,

Option 1 - Assessment and Certification - 2 weeks.

Option 2 - Training, Assessment & Certification which takes from 6 - 9 weeks.

I do not recommend 2 week courses for Divemaster unless you are already well prepared. I do not offer free Divemaster internships.

Option 1:  US$1500       Option 2:  US$2500

Divemaster courses do not include dive equipment, certification fee or purchase of manuals. Upon successful completion of a Divemaster course certification fee is paid directly to PADI. In the event a candidate fails to reach Divemaster standards they will not be certified and course fee is non refundable
