PADI Scuba Diver

The PADI Scuba Diver course qualifies you to dive anywhere in the world to a maximum depth of 12 metres under the supervision of a dive proffessional. There are three main aspects to the Scuba Diver course:

  • Knowledge Development

    • In a classroom environment, your instructor will teach you some of the theory behind diving, dive equipment and diver safety with entertaining multimedia presentations.

  • Confined Water Training

    • A shallow water session in a beautiful sheltered bay, during which you will learn the basics of recreational diving and practice the skills you learned in the classroom.

  • Open Water Dives

    • Put your new skills into practice right away with two open water dives at Koh Tao’s stunning dive sites.

Schedule:

Day 1: PM Diving Theory
 
Day 2: AM Confined Water Session
  PM Diving Theory
 
Day 3: AM Open Water Dives 1 & 2

This is a typical Scuba Diver course schedule. We normally spread the course over three days to give you suficient time for self-study, but if time is limited, we can tailor a course to suit your availability - just contact us to discuss your needs.

A typical Mae Haad sunset. Mae Haad is Koh Tao's main village where Master Divers is situated, and this is part of the scene from our sunset view bar.
Sairee beach, about ten minutes walk from Mae Haad, is the largest beach on Koh Tao. Despite the tranquility of this beach during the day, at night it becomes Koh Tao's party capital. The beach is lined with bars and clubs which keep bumping till the early hours.
Accommodation options on Koh Tao vary from basic but clean rooms through to luxury suites. Most common is the beach bungalow: usually equipped only with a fan and a cold shower (but sometimes television, DVD player, fridge, hotshower and air conditioning), they are set right on the beach or in beautiful gardens with a balcony to chill out and soak up the vibe.
Nudibranch means 'external lung'. These critters are found in various shapes, sizes and disguises all around Koh Tao, but without the benefit of your Divemaster's local knowledge, you'll probably never find one.
Whale Sharks are what we're famous for. Koh Tao is a normal stopping off point for Whale Sharks on their annual trips around the world so they're relatively common here. They're completely harmless plankton feeders and the ones we see here range in size from 2.5 metres to 7 metres long.
Scorpion fish are very difficult to spot - their excellent camouflage helps them blend almost perfectly with the reef on which they resolutely sit.
