General Info

You'll find the highest standards and quality in professional scuba instruction in both recreational and technical diving. Our team of staff are experienced and expert divers, with backgrounds in recreational and technical diving, including rebreathers, who actively teach, dive and explore new environments each year. Our PADI scuba diving internships, Divemaster and PADI Instructor courses, (PADI IDC) take place in Honduras in one of the most awarded PADI Career Development Centers in the world, and offer you the best training environment in the Bay Islands with daily scuba courses and dive trips, for you to immerse and learn in, which few facilities can match.

Our facility has top class dive boats, good quality equipment, a training pool, and we also offer specialised diving activities including technical diving, rebreather training, DPV's, sidemount, photography, marine ecology classes, and coral reef surveying. The island of Utila is one of the most affordable in the Caribbean and escaped mass development seen elsewhere in the region, and a friendly bilingual island (English/Spanish) and you won't need taxis/shuttles to get around, giving you more time to reach the 80 buoyed dive sites around the island, with unlimited diving on our internships. Our GoPro programs are also supported with PADI courses (Open Water, Advanced, Rescue) starting daily in our facility, there's no other PADI Career Development Center in the region that has such a productive learning environment for you and real world students for you to work with.
