Have you ever dreamed of diving every day—and actually getting paid for it? The PADI Divemaster course is your first step into the world of professional diving, and there’s no better place to start than the tropical waters of Ao Nang, Krabi.
Your journey begins with a warm welcome at our dive center in Ao Nang, Krabi, where you’ll meet your mentors, explore our facilities, and review your personalized training plan. Before the course officially begins, you’ll need at least 40 logged dives, plus your PADI Rescue Diver and EFR certifications. If you’re missing any of these, no problem—we can help you complete them before you start.
The Divemaster course runs for a minimum of 6 to 10 weeks, depending on the time of year and your personal schedule. During this time, you’ll dive almost daily alongside our experienced instructors, assisting with real student courses, exploring local dive sites, and learning how to manage dive operations. You’ll be part of a small group, ensuring personal mentorship and hands-on experience, and you’ll need to complete at least 60 logged dives before certification.
All our Divemaster candidates also train directly with our in-house marine biologist instructor, giving you a much deeper understanding of marine ecosystems than the course minimums require. You’ll gain real insight into conservation, local species, and the underwater environment—knowledge that sets you apart from the rest.
With us, you’ll go far beyond the basics, because we’re committed to making you one of the best Divemasters in the industry.
We require all candidates to have their own full set of dive gear, because being a dive professional means knowing how to care for your own equipment. To support this, you’ll get access to special wholesale prices on dive gear through Fast Manta.
The course fee is 49,000 THB, and while we aren’t the cheapest, we’re selective about who we train—because we’re committed to excellence. We aim to prepare you to succeed not just as a Divemaster, but later in your Instructor Development Course (IDC) and PADI Instructor Exams. The course price does not include the PADI certification fee, which is paid directly to PADI, but it does include your first year of PADI Pro membership.
While accommodation is not included, we’ll connect you with trusted local agents who can help find housing that suits your needs—1-bedroom apartments start at around 10,000 THB/month. You’ll also need a motorbike for daily transport, and we can recommend reliable rental options.
By the end of your training, you won’t just hold a certification—you’ll be confident, capable, eco-aware, and ready to work anywhere in the world as a true dive professional.
We will send you all needed details where to meet and will also organize airport pick u to you if needed
