Say: "Go Pro!!" 📸

This week we hosted a Go Pro evening at the Hacienda to inspire future PADI professionals about their next steps.

We had all kinds of levels attending, from Rescue divers up to Course Directors. We even had special guest visits from our PADI Regional Manager Andrea Arcal and Regional Training Consultant David Arnold!

We've all learned a lot about how to become a dive professional like a Divemaster or Open Water Scuba Instructor. 🤿

Are you ready to take the next step in your diving career? Shoot us a message and we'll answer all your questions!

Missed the event? No worries, we host Go Pro's on a regular basis. Keep an eye out on this page for the next dates! 👀

High Five to all the Scuba Ladies out there!

Happy International Women's day 💙

"I'm an emergency first responder, may I help you?!"

This is a question often asked during the Emergency First Responder Instructor course. Where our IDC candidates learn how to safely educate future emergency first responders.

An important course, but there is definitely some room for creativity to keep everybody's head in the game! 🤕

Course directors note: no IDC candidates were harmed during this EFRI 😉

The EFRI is part of the IDC here at Ban's. Ready to join this life changing experience? Shoot us a message and we'll help you get started! 🤙

Happy faces means... A 100 % passing rate during the PADI Instructor Examination! 🥳👏

Huge congratulations to Finn, Sara, Blake and Rick, they may now call themselves scuba instructors!

Thinking of following the same path as these 4 superstars? Our next IDC starts on the 5th of March, come join us. 🤙

Go Team Go! 👏 Our IDC-candidates start their PADI Instructor Examination today.

After two weeks of hard work, the next two days are all about putting those skills to the test.

The morning of the IE starts with the Dive Theory and Standards and Procedures exams, followed by a confined pool session in the afternoon. 🤿

Tomorrow they continue with a Knowledge Development Presentation in the morning and they close the exams with an Open Water session! 🌊

Wish Blake, Finn, Rick and Sara the best of luck! We are already beyond proud of you guys. 🤩
