PADI, diving and Instructor Development (IDC) around Thailand: PADI IDC on Phuket for March 2017 has been completed

The PADI IDC on Phuket for March 2017 has been completed in conjunction with PADI CDC Center 'Dive Asia'.

It's been a short March 2017 PADI IDC program, since we only completed the PADI OWSI part of the PADI IDC, since Hanu and Juha just very recently completed their PADI Assistant Instructor course.

It's not very often that I teach just the PADI OWSI part of the PADI IDC, so it was an interesting experience for me as well.

It was good to work with Hannu and Juha and we had a good PADI IDC program and some fun along the way as well. and we got lots of work done, a little bit more than is required for the PADI OWSI course, so hopefully they will benefit from this and do real well during the up and coming PADI IE program this weekend. Come Sunday around noon, we should have two brand new PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor at PADI CDC Center 'Dive Asia'!

PADI IDC on Phuket for March 2017 has been completed; On our way back on board the Dive Asia 5 dive boat, after three dives yesterday. The first two dives, at Koh Doc Mai and Koh Bida Nok Bay were training dives and we had a fantastic third dive on the way back home to Chalong pier at Anemone Reef. Despite the strong current,w e saw a lot of cool things, among others, a big school of yellow tail barracuda hanging out in the current, some nudibranches. a pipe fish, nudibranch eggs and lots more. A great dive to end the day!
