Client Testimonial

“I recently completed my PADI Divemaster training (DMT) with Uber Scuba Komodo and it was 6 incredible weeks: great learning experience and lots of fun at the same time. The dive center is very busy and very well organized which means each task is clearly defined and everyone knows what to do and when. Great structure to discover the diving industry!! Uber Scuba number one priority is “SAFETY FIRST!!” From day 1 you are treated as part of the team and the daily tasks include: welcoming guests to introduce the dive center and the diving programs; preparing equipment, doing briefings on the boat; learning about dive sites, marine life and currents; assisting instructors/dive masters and… DIVING a lot. I did over 100 dives in 6 weeks!! The staff is very friendly and professional, they will treat you as part of their family and they will try to teach you as many things as they can. The diving in Komodo National Park is out of this world and you will surely love it! Get ready to play with manta rays, sharks and turtles on a daily basis. There are also very high chances that you become what we call a “current junky” which means addicted to drift dive! I am extremely satisfied by the decision I took to do my DMT with Uber Scuba Komodo. I highly recommend this DMT program as well as all the other diving courses to anyone looking for a fun and professional training.“
