Try a Dive!
Have you always dreamt of how it would be to breath under
water? Or would you like to see whether diving would be a nice sport for you? Or
do you want to give a friend an original birthday present? Than Try-a-Dive is
the solution for you! |
|
A Try Dive (or taster dive) takes around 3 hours only. We
will provide you with equipment and after approximately 45 minutes of basic
information, we will go in the water. Once we are comfortable in the water, we
will practice some basic skills. Finally we’ll make a real dive! After the
dive, we clean up the equipment and discuss your dive.
In the case you decide to continue your diving experience
with us (by enlisting to the Open Water Diver Course), we will offer the Try
Dive with our compliments!
Try Dives do not require a medical examination from a
doctor but a self declaration is sufficient. In case of minors under 18 years, the parents or legal guardian need to give permission to have the child
participate.

Divemaster Course
The Dive Master course is the
first level of professional diving. Whereas previous courses mainly focused on
skills, the Dive Master set-up shapes the character and attitude of persons
committed to act as role models in the industry. During intensive mentoring
sessions and physical endurance tests with your instructor, you will learn to
set up for dives, plan & brief fellow divers and assume responsibility for
your group.
When you are a Dive Master,
you will be able to continue your education to become assistant instructor.
During this period, you can even start to earn money from your hobby! (as you
can assist groups but also train certain aspects of courses, or even run a
course completely by yourself *)
As the course is very
intensive, you will require the right mentality and motivation. All
day diving, physical training, dealing with customers and intensive studying at
night will drain you, but the satisfaction afterwards will have made it worth
all the efforts!
