If you have 3+ months, this is the best way to enter the world of professional diving:

  • Do your PADI Divemaster course
  • Work on the Dive counter
  • Assist guides and instructors
  • Option to add EFR, Rescue Diver and extra dives to your internship
  • Learn a huge amount about how a sustainable dive centre is organised and run
  • Includes 3 months camp or staff accommodation, private room

Pre-requisites

  • 18 years old
  • PADI Rescue Diver with 20 dives: if you’re not yet at this level, you can add courses and dives to your internship
  • Medical sign off by a doctor (can be done in Dahab)
  • Dive Computer: by month 2
  • Dive Equipment: available for rent if you need it, but we encourage all DM interns to buy their own equipment as early as possible. You will need this to work as a professional diver.
