Scandi Goes Tech!

As our followers know, over the last year we have all been working very hard to improve both the resorts & the dive shop. As part of this advancement we are extremely proud to have conducted our 1st Technical Dive course.
Our Tech instructor Ethei coached Andy through his PADI Deep Specialty & IART’s Extensive Range program before taking Stephen & Andy (both part of the I Love Diving Club) through the PADI Trimix course.

Andy now has a new goal of diving to 100m – with a bit more training the oceans the limit!Congratulations Terry!

Some get china & these days some get platinum to celebrate their 20th anniversary. Terry is pictured above receiving his 20 years of service award from our PADI regional manager Jimmy Christup. Way to go O’Dowd!

And with that accolade Terry skips merrily down the beach to start his holiday.
Trekking around Nepal indeed!
