The PADI Master Scuba Diver is a recognised rating that's awarded upon completion of meeting the requirements for this certification. The rating denotes the highest level of Recreational Scuba Diving within the PADI system of diver education, indicating a significant amount of training and experience in various dive environments. Private Scuba will customise a price for student divers, depending on the number of courses, specialties, and/or logged dives in order to meet the criteria. Please Contact Us for an individual price and schedule for the Master Scuba Diver Course.

What will I learn ?
The PADI Master Scuba Diver rating is acheived when the requirements of the certification have been met. Therefore, depending on the student's experience and prior certifications, the course will be scheduled to suit their requirements. Generally, if you enter at the PADI Rescue Diver level with twenty logged dives, for example, then another thirty dives and five PADI Specialties would be all that's needed to complete the Master Scuba Diver rating.
How long does it take to become a PADI Master Scuba Diver ?
This varies depending on the student's experience and previous certifications, though we would suggest that it could take somewhere between five and ten days.
