Hi guys
My partner and I are ready to start our IDC in early feb.
We are based in Australia but will consider SE Asian locations.
If you are a PADI 5 star facility please drop me a PM with information about your package and why is it the best!
We want a total price included as well and I mean total, PADI fees accomodation, course materials and any hidden extras.
We are looking for a relaxed location with small groups with a possibility of good diving and some sight seeing.
We will need a refresher as we haven't done any skills for over 12 months and will contemplate msdt.
If any one else can recommend a dive centre your input is much appreciated.
Thanks Chris
 
Hi Chris :)

Your tone suggests you're rushing to book for an IDC at THIS time in February :O
So I guess I'll get to the point :wink:...

Downbelow Marine & Wildlife Adventures is a licensed travel and tours company in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Borneo, and we specialise in scuba diving.
We have a premier PADI 5 Star IDC Dive Centre located 8 minutes from Sabah's capital - Kota Kinabalu - where there are also plenty of other attraction in and around the city centre for visitors sightseeing experiences! Our interns receive a discount on ANY of our products and packages of our Travel Centre, Dive Shop and Dive Centre!

Our next IDC is scheduled to start on January 27th, however the start date is flexible and according to our internship candidates professional needs and goals, which you can discuss with one of our GoPRO advisors.
We set a standard 14 days for the IDC (AI and OWSI courses combined), and this includes extra time for additional in-water or dive theory practise 1 or 2 days before the Instructor Examination (IE). We also select the start date of the IDC according to the schedule of the Instructor Examination set by PADI Asia Pacific.
Is the end of January a possible time for you and your partner to start?

If, once you've browsed through some of our dedicated GoPRO website, contact one of the advisors of our Sabah Travel Centre to create an itinerary for you both :)
Good luck with the search, Chris!

But do you offer a "Scuba Refresher/MSDT" package deal?

:d
 
Hey Rjp
The refresher was just to get our cesa demo to demonstration quality as it is not something We practice regularly.
Thanks for your intelligent comments though they were very useful!
