Why not consider taking your PADI Divemaster Course in Kenya? The PADI Divemaster course is the first professional level in the PADI Diver System. When it comes to scuba diving coral reefs, Kenya is up there with the best of them.

The PADI Divemaster course consists of a mix of dive theory, workshops, stamina tests, practical skills assessments, and practical experience.

Ocean Tribe’s dive base in Diani Beach is located on one of the world’s top 10 rated beaches and consistently rated the best in Africa. The palm tree-lined white powder sands run down to azure waters where the fringing coral reefs can be found only 100m off shore.

Duration

While we do offer an express package 14-day course which will meet the minimum requirements for becoming a PADI Divemaster it is much better to excel rather than take just the bare minimum. We strive for excellence and want to make you the best PADI Divemaster you can be so prefer the longer option of 1 month.

Who is it For?

The PADI Divemaster course is open to PADI Rescue Divers and above (or equivalent certification) who hold a current first aid and CPR provider certification.
