YOUR JOURNEY
Become a Dive Master in 2 months
Theory Lessons
Working through the manuals from the Divemaster program, with our expert Pro-Level Instructors, we will cover subjects including Physics, Physiology, Environment, Risk Assessment and Dive Management. We aim to get this completed within the first 2 weeks of training, which means we can focus on in-water training for the remainder of the time.
Pool Sessions
During Divemaster training we will complete at least 3 Skill Circuits in the pool. These excercises will have you demonstrating diving skills perfectly, ready to conduct Refresher courses independently, and assist all training courses alongside a certified Instructor.
Ocean Diving
During you Divemaster program you will have access to unlimited diving! We will not cap your dive numbers in anyway. Alongside fun dives, our primary focus is to have you ready to work as a Divemaster the day the training finishes. With this in mind, we will be spending many days out on the boat practicing dive briefings and leading dives. As well as dive leading workshops we will also conduct buoyancy and navigation, search and recovery, knots, and lift bag workshops; to name a few. You will also have the opportunity to assist in all recreational courses, getting hands on with real customers in a real training environment.

Annabel JonesHad a great experience with LBD doing our open water course highly recommend! Shoutout to Ernesto, amazing instructor!!!HollyAmazing experience doing the OW20. Shoutout to Ernesto, the best diving instructor everPierre-Yves LapointeBe careful, if you decide to book your ow with this place, you’ll probably end up with some advanced class + extra fun dive days and good memories, it gets addictive 🤷â€â™‚ï¸ðŸ¤¿. Had a blast with Ernesto as our teacher 👌 Everyone at the reception is also very friendly.Alexander FagerWe did the 1-day try dive with Nico, amazing instructor and so much fun! Definitely go here for courses or try dives!Nora EcklWir haben eine gute Einführung von dem instructor Max bekommen und konnten unsere Kleider anprobieren. Danach mussten wir 2 Stunden warten, bis das Schiff kam, was sehr unnötig war. Schließlich ging es los, wir haben vieles wiederholt. Als wir ins Wasser gingen, ist Max einzelt mit den Personen die Skills durchgegangen, er konnte mich gut beruhigen und war auch geduldig.Kira war auch dabei und war auch sehr hilfsbereit und hat genau so ein guten Job gemacht. War eine tolle Erfahrung, Danke nochmals. Ich dachte man bekommt unterwasser Bilder, war nicht der Fall.Luuk van ZiltHad a great dive with La Bombona. Thanks Kira and Max!Iñaki UrgoitiCon mi novia hicimos el curso Open Water 20 en LBD y estuvo espectacular! Nuestro instructor fue Roberto y nos encantó: super claro, muy dedicado y ante todo con muy buena onda. Disfrutamos un montón la experiencia y fue una excelente forma de introducirnos al buceo. Gracias!Sam HöjmanGjorde Open Water 20 och tyckte verkligen om det. Utbildningen var grundlig och välformulerad och min instruktör Ernesto var verkligen fantastisk och en höjdpunkt. De tar verkligen säkerhet pÃ¥ allvar och ser till att när du väl hamnat i vattnet sÃ¥ känner du dig bÃ¥de bekväm och säker. Kan starkt rekommendera att du tar ditt dykarcert här.Amy PfitznerDid the open water 20 course with Ernesto, the course was absolutely incredible, highly recommend La Bomboba. Ernesto was a great instructor too - very experienced diver and made the experience very fun! Wish I could stay to do the advanced course.camila SaezRecomiendo a Ernesto como instructor, fue lo máximo!! Aprendà mucho y lo pase increible! La mejor disposicion para enseñar y es muy experimentado, apoyador y pasciente. Gracias!!!!
Frequently asked questions
If you come with all the prerequisite certifications the Divemaster training takes 60 days.
We are located on one of the busiest diving islands in the world. If you prove yourself during the training process, should there be work available, you will be given the opportunity to take it. This is not something that can be assured, as it depends on the volume of customers we have at any given time
Although it is recommended to own certain pieces of your own equipment (especially if you want to work afterwards), we provide all required equipment throughout the training program.
