Divemaster

Have you caught the diving bug and want to get more scuba diving certifications on Koh Tao?  Or just need a long vacation on a tropical island? Or want to take the first step in your professional dive career or have a change of lifestyle?  Taking the Divemaster course is your answer.

You will need 40 logged dives to start the course and a minimum of 60 to finish. However, we like to give you 80 logged dives to give you more experience and coaching.  Moreover, you will have various theory and skill sessions to attend.

In addition, be required to assist with courses with our professional team and have some self-study.  But you can also fun dive as much as you like allowing you to visit Koh Tao’s amazing dive sites and learn to navigate them for when you lead fun divers.

We provide all of the materials you will need for the SSI Dive Guide plus the SSI Science of Diving.   Our relaxed approach means that there is no time limit to complete the course.  The program can be completed in as little as 4 weeks, but we recommend you take at least 6 weeks to 8 weeks.  As there is no pressure to finish, you can take as long as you wish, but 2 to 3 months is better to earn all your diving certifications on Koh Tao

Prerequisites

For the divemaster course you must be at least 18 years old, have both SSI advance open water certification and SSI Stress and Rescue certifications or the equivalent, hold a current CPR, First Aid, and Oxygen Provider qualification (within the last 24 months) and be physically fit for diving. If you don’t have these courses yet don’t worry we can teach those here.

You will need to submit a current medical signed by a physician within the last 12 months which you can do on Koh Tao.

During the course, you can use our dive equipment but you must have as a minimum your dive computer, compass, surface marker, knife, slate, torch, and whistle.  Koh Tao has the main suppliers here and we offer a discount to all students.
