How is the Divemaster program with Pura Vida Pro?

​

The Dive Master is a program that combines two specialty courses, so you will accumulate theoretical knowledge through the SCIENCE OF DIVING and you will learn, train and gain experience, with the best practices for diving leaders, thanks to the specialty of GUIDE DE DIVING.​

​

The Divemaster course in Pura Vida Pro does not have fixed start dates, that is, you could start it any day of the year without problems.

The program lasts from 4 to 8 weeks. Depending on the time you have.  We will always recommend that you extend it as long as possible,

in order to gain much more experience and leave more and better prepared. At the end of the course, you will have another 2 extra weeks

of free dives to enjoy the waters of Koh Lipe. If you make the most of it, it will be 10 weeks of uninterrupted diving (8 of training + 2 of practice and enjoyment). It is undoubtedly the longest and most complete course on the island, but at the same time flexible and 100%

adaptable to your idea and time on the island.

How many dives can I do in my Dive Master in Pura Vida?

​

A great  The advantage of doing the Divemaster in Koh Lipe is that we dive 364 days a year (we rest only on January 1) and the key in Pura Vida is to have two own boats, doing 2 or 4 trips a day (4/5 dives a day ), with which our Dive Masters can DIVE, DIVE and DIVE.  

 

  The course has a prior organization, but very flexible, always guaranteeing your space in at least one of the day's outings, (minimum 2 dives a day) but as long as there is space, you are free and with energy you can do extra dives. The average number of dives of our Dive Masters students is between 100/120 dives divided in the 8 weeks of training. If we add to that the 2 weeks of extra dives, you could easily reach 150 dives.

Diving so much and in such a cheap way is one of the differentials when choosing to do the Divemaster in Pura Vida Diving Koh Lipe, we doubt that there is another way on the island to gain so much experience for this investment. If we only calculate the number of dives, each dive would be less than  7 euros. To this, let's add all of the above.
