DIVING AND INSTRUCTION FACILITIES

Take the relaxed approach to learning by starting your day with an informative DVD presentation that will follow the information in the same order that it appears in your PADI or EFR student manual.

Two classrooms equipped with state of the art computerized presentations through either a 32" LCD TV or one of 3 LCD screens giving you the very best opportunity to work with your instructor in an environment that encourages learning.

Our conference room is suitable for 25 people, with options for F&B. The conference room is equipped with a 42" LCD TV, DVD player, screen and whiteboard. This is also where all the knowledge development takes place for IDC's and other Instructor level courses. The IE is also held here 7 times a year which is run by PADI.
