Divemaster (PADI)
Divemaster is PADI's first professional-level certification, for divers ready to move from student to leader. You'll work alongside our team assisting real courses, supervising certified divers, and taking on hands-on leadership experience under the guidance of our instructors. It requires a Rescue Diver certification, a current EFR, medical clearance, and 40-60 logged dives, and typically takes about a week to complete.
Quick Details
- Min age: 18+
- Duration: 1 week
Prerequisites
You'll need: Rescue + current EFR, medical, 40-60 logged dives.
Medical clearance required for certain health conditions. View PADI's medical form.
We'll pick you up each day and head wherever that day's course or dive is happening — the site shifts daily based on conditions and whichever students you're assisting need. Expect a mix of reef and boat sites over the week rather than one fixed spot, since you're shadowing real courses as they run. We'll drop you where we picked you up at the end of each day.
