Hi
I was 45 when I did my rescue, DM and Instructor course.
I spent 9 mths on Koh Tao and had the best time.
Would head over to Buddha View way, that is where I did my DM and IDC. Yes would agree that there are lots of young backpackers, but I find the majority of Instructors 30+.
During my DM training, of fifteen or so, a quarter were over 40.
During my IDC of four three were over 30.
Koh Tao is a great place to learn, yeah all the cliche stuff, cattle boat etc etc,
but really, that is not true for the majority.
Buddha has a great bbq at night and close to some very nice beach bars.
There are free movie screening, and generally a very friendly and inclusive enviroment.
