Turn your SCUBA hobby into a career (aka Go Pro)!

 

As a “Five Star PADI Instructor Development Dive Resort,” Pura Vida Divers can take you from your Open Water Certification to the Instructor Development Course in a matter of weeks.

Our next instructor program begins August 27 and comes to an end on September 9. This program includes: Advanced Open Water, EFR, Rescue, PADI/DAN O2, Divemaster, and Open Water Instructor. This is simply an example; we can easily modify the program to accommodate your needs!
