Master Diver Rating

Master Diver is what we refer to as a rating, not a certification. Only those who have dedicated the time & energy to achieve 4 – 5* distinct specialty ratings (one must be the rescue course). This is the highest non-professional rating for a diver & is a testament to your passion for diving, acquiring knowledge, & enhancing your skill level. The best part is there is no class or in-water work necessary as you’ve already done all the hard work!

*Agency dependent
