PADI DIVEMASTER Your next PADI professional step

The PADI Divemaster Course with DIVE WIMBLEDON

The PADI Divemaster course is the first professional scuba diving qualification offered by PADI. A qualified PADI Divemaster may assist an instructor with student training i.e. PADI Open Water, Advanced, Rescue and Speciality courses as well as personally teaching Scuba Reviews, Reactivates and the Skin Diver courses. Guiding and navigating dives for groups of certified divers is another important and fun role performed by a PADI Divemaster.

PADI Divemaster trainees assist our experienced instructors with courses as they complete their course and we believe we offer one of the best and most professional Divemaster courses in the UK.

If you are completing the British Stunt Register please enquire for package deals for multiple courses.

Course Overview

During the PADI Divemaster course you will learn dive leadership skills through both classroom and independent study. You will complete water skills and stamina exercises as well as training that stretches your ability to organise and solve problems as well as help others improve their scuba. You put this knowledge into action through a structured internship or series of practical training exercises.

As you progress through your PADI Divemaster course you will expand your diving knowledge, improve your skills and increase your confidence. Then, as a PADI Divemaster, you will use these attributes to lead, mentor and motivate other divers and experience the joy of seeing them improve as divers.
