padi professional development excellence award silver status for cyprus diving center in cyprus

We have some great news to share! :-D The Cyprus Diving Centre has officially been awarded the PADI Professional Development Excellence Award (Silver Status) .


This award means a great deal to us, especially considering that we only really launched our PADI Pro training program last year. Achieving this status in such a short time is a huge validation for our entire team and our approach.


A look back at our record year 2025

Our focus on quality pays off. In 2025 alone, we successfully guided a considerable number of professionals into the market:


  • 4 new PADI Open Water Scuba Instructors

  • 5 new EFR (Emergency First Response) instructors

  • 21 new specialty instructor ratings

  • 6 new PADI Divemasters


Why your path to becoming a pro starts with us

Cyprus offers the perfect training environment: crystal-clear water, excellent logistics, and a relaxed learning atmosphere. German-speaking PADI Pros, in particular, are in extremely high demand internationally. From our base here in Cyprus, the whole world is open to you – whether it's the Maldives, the Caribbean, or the Red Sea.


We won't leave you on your own: After your training comes your job. We actively support you in finding a job and use our global network to give you the perfect start to your new career.


A glimpse into the future: Full speed ahead with our own PADI Course Director

Daniel Kistler stands on stage with PADI staff in Kota Kinabalu, holding his PADI Course Director certificate. The blue PADI flag is on his right.

We're just getting started! In the future, we will focus even more strongly on the professional side. The year 2026 will mark a particularly significant highlight:

Daniel Kistler has successfully completed his PADI Course Director course in Kota Kinabalu ! This means we now have our own PADI Course Director on staff at our dive center . For you, this means: training at the highest PADI level, right here in our facility, without any external intermediaries.


Don't just dream about the world – dive into it! With our own Course Director on the team, we now offer you even more intensive and individual support on your way to becoming a professional.

Become part of our success story!

Are you thinking about turning your hobby into a career? Then now is the perfect time. We already have 6 new PADI IDC registrations and 7 PADI Divemaster registrations for the 2026 season.
