Divemaster Internship Programme

Gain all your PADI certifications inlcuding Open Water, Advanced, Rescue and Divemaster, as well as a certificate in first aid and experience operating a dive vessel and maintaining dive equipment

The Divemaster internship is a great way to get yourself started in a career in Scuba diving.

Pacific Divers is a small but busy dive centre with good staff and a friendly, family atmosphere. Rarotonga is a gorgeous island with nice beaches, lagoon, super clear water for diving and just enough people to make it interesting and engaging. There are lots of cultural and sporting activities and at Pacific Divers we encourage our staff to get out and make the island home.

No Experience necessary. You do not need any diving experience prior to coming down. All training is included as part of the internship, including your first Open Water certification course. If you do have some experience already that is fine and it may even work towards a credit, reducing the time you spend on the internship programme.

We can start the programme at any time for any individual. The standard programme runs for 6 months and requires a part time (30 hrs per week, which equates to 6 hrs a day, 5 days a week) commitment on your behalf.

We are able to shorten the internship length by increasing the hours per week you commit. The shortest the full internship can run in is 4 months.

What the internship includes is all training materials, instruction and certification costs for all dive courses up to Dive Master, free use of all Pacific Divers rental equipment for the duration of your internship, free diving up to a total of 60 dives, training in first aid, boat operations, marine safety and of course all the experience you will gain from being part of a small, professional dive operation.

What you need to provide for yourself is your airfare and personal living expenses including accommodation and food. There are several accommodation options nearby to Pacific Divers and if there are a couple of interns we can arrange for a house to be rented.
