Why Come to Pattaya in Thailand to Complete Your Master Certifications?
Pattaya is an ideal destination for scuba diver training, offering a great climate year-round, friendly locals, and warm waters. The Thai Gulf features coral reefs, wrecks, and a variety of water conditions, providing a diverse and challenging experience for divers. Thailand’s welcoming atmosphere makes it feel like a home away from home—just like how Pattaya Scuba Adventures was born, with all our staff, including the owner, having trained here. After thousands of dives, we still enjoy the diver’s life in Pattaya and invite you to share in this experience.
Do You Offer a Master Scuba Diver Package?
Yes, we design bespoke diver training programs to take you from your current level all the way to Master Scuba Diver. Depending on your current dive qualifications and number of logged dives, this can take anywhere from two to four weeks typically. We allow you to save time by completing the coursework at home via e-learning first and follow that up with consultation and water training. Usually, we recommend this diving package to people who are already open water certified with a number of logged dives; however, depending on your available time for training dives, it is possible to start from any stage of your experience.Â
