An essential part of the set up on Kuredu is the instructor team.  Kuredu is one of the largest diving and snorkeling centers in the Maldives, and we currently have 13 full time instructors here.

Daily life for the instructors is extremely varied – whether it be taking people into the water for the first time to blow bubbles, or having the chance to improve someones underwater photography skills, there are always different dive activities going on.  The multilingual team are able to run all of the PADI dive courses right the way up to divemaster, including a wide range of Specialty Courses.

But it’s not all about teaching for our instructors.  They also get the chance to take certified divers out on boat dives, having the chance to show off their artistic side along the way.  We regularly get asked how and where our instructors learn how to draw all the dive sites and the fish that can be seen at the site.  Jutta our baseleader, regularly runs training sessions for our instructor team to make sure that a high standard is always maintained.

The following movie should give you an insight into the intensive training sessions our instructors have to undergo:
