Scuba diving/ underwater diving career

[bilyotoy1]

---

Hello TS! I am now finishing my Dive Master course with Neptune Diving Adventure. Neptune Diving Adventure. This is located in Moalboal. I started with them with my Open Water Course and very satisfied service. Mind you, diving is not the average joe's hobby but if pursigido lang ka to learn and focuses on it then possibilities are endless. To answer your inquiry about how to get a license, you start of first with Open Water, then Advanced, then Rescue, then EFR, then Divemaster. Dive master is the first professional course.

Talking about tuition, these are per course prices...
Open Water - Php 17,950.00
Advanced Open Water - 14,000.00
Rescue Course - Php 18,950.00
EFR - 7,000.00
Dive Master - 45,000.00

Technically, it can sum up to more or less Php 102,900.00 to get your Dive Master.
You can negotiate with the dive shop for you to get good deals and discounts.
Basically you need about 40 dives to start your dive master course.

Hope that helps T/S and if you happen to drop by Moalboal, let me know! Dive nya ta with the sardines and at Pescador.

To answer your first question, Daghan ka ug kapili-an na Scuba diving certification Agencies
like PADI, SSI, SDI, PDIC, NASE, CMAS, NAUI ug daghan pa hehehehe... bisan asa ka magpa
certify ani nila OK ra kaayo kay almost the same raman ang principles and dive theory gi gamit.
Just select and research kung kinsa na instructor maayo, approachable and nag follow ug
standards and procedures inig teach.. Kay based on my experience pag Openwater, Advanced and
Rescue course nako sa una abi nako OK kaayo mo teach akong instructor pero pagbalhin nako ug
lain na Dive Agency diha pako nakabalo na perti ka kulang ang teaching sa akong instructor....
wala mag sunod ug standards sa entity na iya gi instructoran.. walay classroom instructions, walay
dive theory, dive table, walay compass navigation kay natural navigation ra hahahahaha ahaka...,
sa rescue course towing na walay klaro, rescue breath ra hahahaha... wala gi tudlo on how to deal
with problems in the water, including how to identify and manage risks and emergencies,
how to perform rescues at depths underwater and at surface.. dili na puwede puro lang dive.

Ang price sa pag pa certify kay depende na kung asa ka nagpa certify kay kung sa sulod sa
resort ka magpa certify mahal gyud kaayo na... then depende na kung unsa certifying agency
ka magpa certify.. Akong gi pili kay CMAS & NAUI ko na dive pro. Naa sad ko mga amigo na
SSI and PADI instructor if gusto ka.

By the way I am also a Scuba & Nitrox Instructor
