PADI Rescue Diver in Pattaya

Congratulations to Cesar .... Our Latest
PADI Rescue Diver in Pattaya(12.06.2010)

Cesar contacted Steve from Private Scuba a few weeks before arriving in Pattaya, Thailand and as he's extremely interested to become a PADI Instructor, he felt that he needed 'something extra' from his Rescue Course in preparation of his Instructor Level Courses to come.
After a few emails from the Private Scuba Team, Cesar booked the Rescue and Divemaster Courses. Scuba Steve also helped with his accommodation in Pattaya because he plans to stay here for 3 months during his Scuba Training.
Cesar says "The room is clean, safe and has all the amenities that I need for a very reasonable monthly rate. I was given my study assignments and the course finished some 4 days later with some tough, but professional and experienced training on the dive boat and I made it to Rescue Diver.
I'm now planning to complete my PADI Divemaster Training with Steve and the Private Scuba Team in the next few months, and I have no doubt that the course will be thorough and a challenge.
Many Thanks to the Team for a seriously Fun Rescue Course !"

Help Give Sharks A Fighting Chance

Project AWARE Foundation and AWARE divers worldwide are outraged at the results of the recent Conference of the Parties to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), held in Qatar in March. Proposals to restrict trade in eight shark species - spiny dogfish, porbeagle, oceanic whitetip, scalloped hammerhead, great hammerhead, smooth hammerhead, dusky and sandbar sharks - failed to receive the required two-thirds vote majority, representing victory for narrow, short-term economic interests over science and the myriad long-term benefits of conservation.

Fadi's PADI Advanced Scuba Diving Course in Pattaya

Having completed his Open Water Scuba Course last year with Private Scuba, he had another opportunity to visit Pattaya and do some more scuba diving. Fadi contacted Steve and we organised a few days diving for him at short notice.
He was particularly looking forward to diving the ship wrecks in Pattaya, and Fadi decided to make the wreck dives as part of the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver Course. Steve got him three wreck dives during his Advanced Course including the HTMS Khram and the HTMS Kood.
The other dives for his course included a Deep Dive, Navigation Dive and the Peak Performance Buoyancy adventure dive. Fadi had a lot of fun and the whole package was efficient, professional and relatively inexpensive.
The Private Scuba Team certainly know how to offer great scuba diving in Pattaya and PADI Scuba Courses that are full of adventure and excitement.
Thanks Steve ..... next time I would like to make the Wreck Specialty Course.
