Why it matters who teaches you
Divemaster is the first step into the profession, and this course is normally taught by an instructor. Here you train with a PADI Course Director — the rating that trains instructors themselves. There are only a handful in Eilat.
In practice that means two things: you see the standard you’ll have to meet if you continue to Instructor from day one, and if you do continue, you can go all the way to IDC in the same place with the same person instead of starting over with someone new.
More questions
- What does the course cost and what’s included? ₪7,500. Included: the PADI materials kit, knowledge development, water-skills training, assisting on real courses and assessment. The PADI certification fee and professional insurance are paid directly to PADI.
- I don’t have 40 logged dives. What now? You build them. The missing dives can be logged here in Eilat alongside the theory — it doesn’t block you from starting.
- What’s the difference between Divemaster and Assistant Instructor? A Divemaster guides certified divers and assists on courses. An Assistant Instructor already teaches parts of a course and conducts Discover Scuba dives. It’s the step after Divemaster, not instead of it.
