Divemaster

The Divemaster programme at Blue Bottom Diving runs through SSI at an Instructor Training Centre level — the same operation that trains instructors also runs the DM track, which matters for the quality of mentoring candidates receive during their internship dives. The centre operates daily excursions to over 20 sites, meaning DM candidates log real-world hours across a genuine variety of conditions and marine environments.

Divemaster candidates work across the full range of Costa Adeje's site profiles: the turtle bay at El Puertito for guiding beginners, the drift conditions at La Caleta and Roncadores del Palmar, wreck dives at El Condesito, Los Gemelos, and El Meridian, and the deeper cave environment at Cueva Neptuno. The boat-based operation with crew handling equipment logistics gives candidates a clear picture of how a professional centre actually runs.

The facility covers more than 200 metres including classroom, MARES LAB technical service area, equipment storage, and a full rental fleet of 25-plus MARES sets. DM candidates are working inside an active commercial operation with an established MARES technical service component — useful background for anyone planning to work in dive tourism.

SSI's professional network spans over 200,000 professionals worldwide, and completing Divemaster at an SSI Instructor Training Centre provides a recognised entry point into that network. The centre's stated philosophy — safety, quality, and service — runs through the DM training as the standard candidates are expected to maintain and eventually deliver.
