Divemaster

The Divemaster program at Koh Tao Scuba Club is the entry point into professional diving — the first level where you're qualified to lead certified divers and assist instructors. The center runs it from their base in Mae Haad, 150 meters from the pier, with access to 25 dive sites around the island.

The blog references a divemaster internship program, and a post written from the perspective of a newly certified Divemaster Trainer named Riccardo suggests the center has an active professional development pipeline. Working with a team that has certified over 10,000 divers across 10+ years means the training environment is high-volume and varied in terms of student types and conditions.

Koh Tao's year-round operation means there's no dead season for logging the dives and assisting hours required for the rating. The island's 25 sites include open water, pinnacles, and wrecks — the kind of range that makes divemaster training more interesting than a single-environment site.
