Divemaster course in South East Asia

[Lillefot]

Hi!

I'm thinking of going to South East Asia or Australia between February and March for some backpacking and diving. I'd also like to extend my AWD certification to Divemaster when I'm there but I'm not sure where to do the course. The layout of the trip would be 1-1,5 months of Divemaster course and 1,5-2 months of traveling/diving in SE Asia and/or Australia. It hasn't been easy to find reviews of dive centers and when I've found one it's usually a couple of years old. So now I'm turning to you, do you have any recommendations of dive centers that could suit my needs? Any other tips or things I should think of are of course also welcome!

Kind reagards,

Måns

You could consider the Philippines. Excellent diving, lots of really good dive resorts and its cheap and a little off the beaten track. Its also a fun place to be.Take your pick from over 7,000 tropical island. I chose Malapascua! Let me know if you'd like more information. Many dive shops / centres here are reviewed on TripAdvisor including Evolution in Malapascua.
