Need a change in your life? Bored of your everyday job?

PADI DIVEMASTER | Pro Level
 

Need a change in your life? Bored of your everyday job? Want to get away from that cold winter? Have a passion for diving and the eco system?

How about a chance to live in paradise, to explore the most diverse eco system on the planet, see beauty most only dream of, be able to work in some of the most beautiful locations in the world?!
 
If this sounds like you, have you ever thought of becoming a PADI Divemaster?
 
Here at Khao Lak Scuba Adventures, one of Thailand’s leading PADI 5 Star IDC Centers, we offer a 4 week training program to introduce you to the professional diving world and open up the opportunities of a lifetime.

Khao Lak is a seaside resort town on the West Coast of Thailand. It's the closest point to the Similan Island National Marine Park (one of the top ten divesites of the world).

Khao Lak isn't a party destination. Sure it's got bars and restaurants, but what it's best at, is being a hub for divers and diving. It's a great place to learn. If you are serious about becoming a diving professional, you'll fit right in.

The PADI Divemaster course teaches you to be a leader and take charge of dive activities. Through knowledge development sessions, water-skills exercises and workshops, and hands-on you develop practical assessment, you develop the skills to organise and direct a variety of scuba diving activities.

Working closely with your PADI Instructor, you'll fine-tune your dive skills, like perfecting the effortless hover, and refine your rescue skills so you anticipate and easily solve common problems. You'll gain dive knowledge, management and supervision abilities so you become a role model to divers everywhere.

You'll learn to lead others as you supervise scuba diving activities and assist with diver training.
