PADI Professional courses Thailand
PADI Professional courses Thailand. We are a British family run PADI 5 STAR IDC center which has been running dive trips and PADI courses in Pattaya since 2006. We are the only dive center that run their dive trips from 12 metre speedboats which limits boat travel time to 12 minutes to the near islands and 25 minutes to the far islands, this allows us to have less travel time and more time underwater. It also means you don’t have to wake up so early and get back so late as our trips start at 9.30am to 3pm on week days and 10am to 3.30pm on weekends.
What makes our dive trips and PADI courses different from other dive centers in Pattaya?
We board our speedboat from Jomtien beach which is only 50 metres from the dive center making things so much easier logistically unlike the other Pattaya dive centers that board their boats at the jam packed Bali Hai tourist pier where you have to walk about a mile to the dive boats.

Our PADI Course Director and Dive Instructors have over 15 years of teaching PADI courses in Pattaya. We have taught thousands of divers from the PADI open water diver beginner level to professional levels such as PADI Divemaster and PADI Dive Instructor ratings. We also have a lot of fun specialty courses such as dive propulsion vehicles, side mount diving, wreck, deep specs and a good camera system for photography and videography.
If you are looking to change your life style and are interested in becoming a dive professional we do have scuba a diving internship which take you from what ever level of diver you are to the ultimate professional ratings of PADI Divemaster, PADI Dive Instructor ratings and above.
We are also an Authentic TAT registered company (Tourism Authority of Thailand) which means we pass and follow all the safety rules to be able to take tourists scuba diving, we also have a 100% safety record in diving.
Every student on our PADI courses gets a full set of rental equipment and also a rental dive computer to dive with which enhances safety and fun. A timing device is a mandatory piece of equipment for every student on a PADI course. You will learn more about dive computers on the PADI courses and why each diver must have one.
Our week day dive trips start at 9.30am and we are usually back after the dive activities at 3pm. For our local and Bangkok divers our weekend trips are now leaving at 10am from Jomtien beach and we are usually back at 3pm-ish. This should give you plenty of time to travel to and fro from Bangkok and it will be nice to see you all again.
