curious? Have some questions?

You will be “immersed” in the world of scuba diving.  Not just being taught, but actually working alongside your instructors on our Similan Island liveaboard, on our speedboat and maybe even arranging and conducting trips to Khao Lak’s local shipwrecks! You will learn how a shop runs, how to coordinate a dive trip, to supervise divers in the water – even how to assist in teaching courses!  Our Similan Divemaster course is for the passionate diver – who wants more!

You will find your head “swimming” with all the new experiences – imagine showing  the incredible dive sites of the Similan Islands and Richelieu Rock to “your divers”.  You will be tending to our guests safety as you share your passion for the marine life you see on each dive, while readying them and their equipment for the next dive. In the shop you will get hands-on training for the real world – seeing how trips are planned and prepared for, equipment serviced and paperwork (yup, there is STILL paperwork – even in diving) readied for each guest.

would you like to ask some questions?

When you join our “school”, you’ll see that things are different.  We are passionate about safety and service. We conduct lectures every two weeks for the whole diving community in Khao Lak regarding safety, marine life and even the results of our exploratory dives around the region. We are a small school with the personal touch.  You will be mentored through the divemaster internship with your own instructor, but all our staff lend a hand in training. specific details.

 

It is not often you can take 6-8 weeks out of your hectic life to live in the tropics, enjoy one of the worlds truly great cuisines, dive some of the best dive sites in the world (Similan Islands, Richelieu Rock, Koh Bon , Koh Tachai) , visit white sand beaches for your lunch break and still end up with a career!

Staying and living in Khao Lak:
We are happy to help you organize accommodation while doing your course. Living here is inexpensive. Unlike Phuket, this is a small town with lots of relaxed places to live. You can choose from serviced units (like hotel rooms) or actual houses with kitchens. Often times you will find that staying with other DMT’s (Dive Master Trainee’s) is a great way to live cheaply and share study time.

 

Khao Lak is about one hour North of Phuket Airport, but is a world away from the madness and chaos of Phuket. Khao Lak is a small town with lots of beaches and quiet laid-back restaurants. We are surrounded by the Khao Lak – Lamru National Park, and of course the World Famous Khao Sok National Park is just up the road from here.

 

Please bear this in mind – unlike Phuket, Khao Lak is quiet. Lacking in real nightlife and “go-go” bars, we like it. If you are coming to Thailand to party, this is NOT the town for you. On the other hand if you are here to dive, learn about diving and to see some of the best dive sites in Thailand – come on up!

You’ll also find that we offer so much more. With Climbing, trekking, golfing, snorkeling, kayaking all within a few minutes of Khao Lak we often take our guests for excursions ourselves. If you need a ride to the airport – we do it!
Don’t just dive with us – experience Khao Lak! Stay for a few weeks and see how things are…maybe just disappear into a hammock for a while…

 

All our staff have extensive safety training from Diver Safety. We also involve you in our ongoing projects like Whale Shark Conservation, Greenfins and Reef Check.
