Marine Conservation Education at Sairee Cottage Diving on Koh Tao:
During your Divemaster Internship you will spend a lot of time on “Eco”. Sairee Cottage Diving is one of the leading Dive Centres in Thailand to conduct Eco Programs especially for our DMTs. The surface of the Earth is around 70% water, and as it is on land, we also see the negative environmental impacts of human activity in our oceans. During your PADI Divemaster Internship in you will learn about all these impacts, encouraging and inspiring you to take action.
Sairee Cottage Diving supports many environmental organisations especially Project AWARE. We have won many awards for our Eco Programs and you can be a part of that, becoming an ambassador for the oceans, making the world a better place and inspiring others to do the same.
Schedule:
While some other Dive Centres in Thailand offer the Divemaster course in only 15 days, we have created a PADI Divemaster Internship program on Koh Tao that takes at least 6 weeks. A quick 15-day Divemaster course will be very short and your subsequent level of experience will be really very low if you do choose a program like that. At Sairee Cottage Diving, in our minimum 6-week program, you learn a lot more than most other Dive Centres offer, gaining lots more experience whilst still having free time to enjoy life on the paradise island of Koh Tao.
Our Divemaster schedule is open, which means that you can sign up any day for different sections of the PADI Divemaster Internship. Every week we will write out a list of classes that you are free to join or, if you want, take some time off (every Sunday is a day off). We can even make personalised DMT training schedules for you to ensure that you will get the best training in a comfortable time frame. Please read the Divemaster PDF for more information about the structure of the Divemaster Internship at Sairee Cottage Diving.
