You can also contact Simone at Toucan Diving at Plaza. I have dealt with both Pam and Simone and they are both great.

martin - have you checked with PhotoTours? If they don't offer the course themselves, they should know who does.

Mimi, I did, but as far as they knew, there was no PADI instuctor course. I want to get my PADI and cross over to SSI....

As far as I know there are currently just two PADI Instructor development Centres here, namely Habitat and Toucan Diving. We both run two Instructor Courses each year, the next one being Oct/Nov, (correct me if I'm wrong Jack.) Simone is Toucan Diving's resident Course Director and can therefore schedule a variety of Instructor courses outside the regular dates. You can contact her on info@toucandiving.com

According to the PADI training schedules Toucan Diving and Habitat are it for this year for IDC/IOC. Sand Dollar used to offer such courses as well, but that's not been in a while.
