Get ready for a Life Changing Adventure!

A Divemaster is the first level of a professional diver in the PADI system. Divemasters, or DMs, oftentimes are role models for others around them, as they exude confidence and knowledge. Our DM Program functions to make you a role model as you master your skills and knowledge of diving through comprehensive training, workshops with Course Director Ivana and a proper co-teaching/guiding internship with the experienced The DiveShop Crew. You will become a more comfortable diver, ready to be in control at all times. Get the chance to learn how a dive shop operates and what your role is within that dive shop as a DM. During this program, you will also get the chance to build lifelong friendships as you overcome obstacles and gain experience with peers who become your buddies. We guarantee you will leave this course feeling confident, comfortable and in control

What people say about us

  What a great time diving with Thor at THE DIVESHOP. Wife and I visited Curacao many times while cruising. Thor picked us up from the cruise ship right on time.... read more Went to their shop about 5 minutes away. Filled out our dive forms & pickup tanks. For our first dive at Kokomo Beach. He gave us an overview of the dive. My max depth was 73' for 45 minutes. Thor pointed to us things that we would have not spotted on our own. This was a very easy dive. The second dive was at Snake Bay 65' for 43 minutes. Both dives were what our computers would allow us to dive. Went back to the shop to rinse out our gear and filled out dive log. The dive experience was so professional I told Thor we would back in 7 days to dive again on my birthday. Our first dive was the Tug Boat & then The Water factory. Again, we dove to our computer limits. A fantastic dive company and staff were very enthusiastic. Many thanks go out to Thor and Jane the office manager. We'll dive with you again the next time. Highly recommended.

  I dove with various instructors at the diveshop through my time in curaçao and did several courses, mainly with Thor and Pleunie, but I also had the chance to dive... read more with Jane and Kenzy and all I have to say is that they are all absolutely incredible people and fantastic instructors. Insanely knowledgeable, very kind, helpful and very patient and reassuring. If they weren't as awesome I probably wouldn't have done a single course with them and just done the dives with their Dive Society but I did my advanced open water, wreck diver and nitrox with them and wish I'd had the time to do more. My partner came to visit me and wanted to do his open water so he could dive with me and in the end loved diving with Thor so much he also did his advanced just so he could spend more time with his man-crush 😉 Truly the nicest bunch of fish in the world I hope I can come back soon to dive with them again!
