dazdaz Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 I was curious what sort of money dive instructors make ? What is required to become one and how long it takes ... Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terdsak_12 Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I ussed to be an Instructor down south in the early 90s, have'nt paid my dues or been in the water for years so probably a novice again. You can go from beginner to instructor in around 6 months if you've got enough money and go diving every day. Not sure what the salaries are, it was around 25K a month in my day. Gets pretty boring teaching Open water courses all the time too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h90 Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 hahahaha I just made the open water and I can imagine that it gets boring! but 25 K sounds nice if it went up from the early 90s to now. if someone is young, diving arround with tourists and get money, sounds like a nice job for 6 month.....

But he was a fully qualified, very experienced, senior instructor . totster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
