The pinnacle of achievement!

This isn't so much a course, as a recognition of your achievements!

To reach this prestigious level, you need to have completed your Rescue Diver Course and also
the Emergency First Response program. You also need to have completed five PADI Specialty Courses.

When you have all these under your belt, you can apply for the PADI Master Scuba Diver rating, which is the highest
non-professional rating awarded in recreational scuba diving.

It denotes that you have a broad range of diving experiences
and have excelled in learning through the PADI system of diver
education.

It is also highly regarded by many in the dive profession and
gives divers a worthwhile target to aim for when planning their
diving education.

If you don't have the required number of Specialty ratings,
have a look at our list of courses to see what interests you.
