Divemaster courses
A Divemaster course is the first professional rung on the PADI/SSI ladder — typically 4-8 weeks of intensive diving, theory, and supervised practice that turns a certified diver into a working dive professional. Popular bases like Koh Tao, Thailand and the Balearic Islands, Spain combine the qualification with cheap island living, daily diving, and a tight-knit community of people doing the same course alongside you.

Divemaster Course Koh Tao
I'm heading to Koh Tao to complete my Divemaster course with Roctopus Dive — and I'm looking for someone to share the experience with. Two months living on a tropical island, getting in the water every day, and walking away with a professional Divemaster qualification. The pace of life out there is hard to argue with, and doing it with good company makes it even better. Here's what's included in the course at 42,000 Thai Baht direct from Roctopus: - Introductory period - All Divemaster training workshops - Lifetime access to Divemaster course materials - Use of BCDs, regulators, and weight systems - Free Roctopus Pro T-Shirt and a Koh Tao Dive Site Guide - Unlimited diving for the full two months I've budgeted to cover the course cost and shared accommodation for the two-month duration. If living on a tropical island and coming out the other side as a certified Divemaster sounds like your kind of plan, let's do this together.
