Two Fish Divers is a PADI 5 Star Instructor Development Dive operator, and PADI courses are offered at both locations on Bunaken Island and Lembeh Straits.
If you are visiting both locations on the same holiday, we would be happy to spread your dive course across the two locations. However, we can only run the Go Pro courses (DiveMaster Intensive, Assistant Instructor & Instructor) from our operation in Bunaken.
Why Two Fish Divers for your courses
Experienced Instructors - with 3 european instructors who are very experienced with beginner courses as well as advanced divers, they will make your course safer and more enjoyable.
Further, two of these instructors are Staff Instructors. This means that they have progressed beyond the level needed to teach the entry-level courses and are therefore very experienced in teaching the further education courses such as PADI Divemaster.
Good dive equipment - every year we buy new equipment and are happy to rent it to our courses. Our used equipment is regularly maintained and so is also in good condition.
Small class szes - we limit our class sizes to a maximum of four - because we do not schedule courses but run them on demand, courses are frequently run with 1 or 2 students. This also means that courses will run according to your progress, and so we can be as flexible as you need us to be.
Up-to-date - we use the most up to date course manuals, and make good use of all available technology such as computers and DVDs. We are also one of the first dive centers in the area to introduce new courses, eg we were the first to offer the new eLearning option of the PADI Open Water Course.
We can teach in English or French or German
Course books and materials are available in English as standard,
please give us 5 days notice if you want another language.
Medical Statement
When you do a PADI course with us, PADI require that you complete a medical statement to confirm that you have no medical conditions that will stop you from diving. Please download the medical statement to check if there are any such medical conditions, and if there are then please email us.
Full Range of PADI Courses
We provide the full range of PADI courses, from entry-level courses to continuing education to instructor.
-
Try a dive - if you want to try a dive then its easy, just follow the half-day program called Discover Scuba Diving, but be warned - it will get you hooked!
-
Learn to dive - the Open Water Course is a 4/5 day course that will provide you with a dive certificate that is recognised all over the world. Its great fun, and can be really exciting - in Bunaken its not uncommon to see sharks and turtles on your first dive!
Now you can do the theory part of the course on the web before you go on holiday, then you just need to complete the diving part of the course in Bunaken or Lembeh!! With the Open Water Course eLearning, the diving part of the course will only take 3 days in Bunaken or Lembeh, so you will get more time for fun-dives when you are here. -
Have more adventure - with the Advanced Open Water Course you can explore specific types of diving such as diving a wreck, diving at night, taking underwater pictures and learning about marine life. We also offer a range of Specialty Courses that can be used to work your way towards the Master Scuba Diver rating.
-
Improve your dive skills - we think that every diver should take the Rescue Diver Course as this makes you a much better diver. This is also needed if you want to reach the Master Scuba Diver rating.
-
Go PRO - Become a professional - we offer the Divemaster Course - Intensive Option as a 2/3 week course for experienced divers, or the 6 week Divemaster Internship Course for inexperienced divers.
You can also take the Assistant Instructor Course: it can be added to the divemaster course, or taken as a stand-alone course if you already are a DM.
We also offer the full Instructor Development Course (IDC) on Bunaken four times per year in Feb, May, July and September, with the PADI IE in nearby Manado.

Dive deeper! - we have just introduced the DSAT Tec Deep Diver course, this enables you to dive beyond the 40m depth limit of recreational diving.
