Highlights

The PADI Boat Diver program makes scuba diving easy! Much of the world’s best scuba diving and definitely Koh Tao’s best diving is accessible only by boat. Diving from a boat is obviously easy, but there are some special procedures that make boat diving more fun!

  • If you're new to boat diving or want to learn more about diving from different types of boats, enroll in the PADI® Boat Diver course.
  • During two dives with an instructor you'll learn nautical terminology, boat diving etiquette and may practice using lines and/or deploy a surface marker buoy (SMB).

What to expect

Some of you will have learned to dive abroad and would have probably seen boat loads of divers heading out to sea for a day's diving.  

But who organizes their kit?  

Where are you supposed to set up?  

Can you go anywhere on the boat? 

What happens if somebody has a problem in the water and the crew need to recall you from 30 meters?  

Do you know the etiquette for getting on and off? 

how to safely stow kit? 

How to exit and safely board following a dive?

What is a shot line and how do you get to it? 

That’s where PADI Boat Diver specialty comes in handy!
