⚑ Why Choose the Combo?

The Facility Dedicated training pool and modern AC classroom on-site. No commuting.
Cost Effective Save money on packages and enjoy Free Dorm or discounted private rooms.
Employability Dive centres often value instructors they have seen training, assisting and growing over time. You become part of the family.
Komodo Factor Train in real Komodo conditions β€” currents, drift dives, boat logistics and varied diver levels that build serious professional confidence.

The Power of Continuity: A Logical Path

Becoming a dive professional is a journey, not a destination. Splitting your training between different locations often leads to gaps in knowledge. By committing to a Divemaster + IDC Combo, you build a solid foundation with the support of a team that knows your strengths and weaknesses intimately.

The Campus: Built for Pro Training πŸ—οΈ

Unlike other centers that rent hotel pools or conduct theory in busy restaurants, Dragon Dive Komodo is built as a Dive Campus. Everything you need is right here.

🏊 Training Pool

Dedicated Training Pool

A purpose-built pool designed specifically for skill development. It is on-site (20 meters from your room) and not shared with sunbathers. You can practice your demonstration quality skills anytime without distraction.

πŸ’» AC Classroom

Modern AC Classroom

A fully enclosed, air-conditioned classroom equipped with projectors, whiteboards, and fast Wi-Fi. It’s a quiet space dedicated to learning physics, physiology, and PADI standards away from the heat and noise.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the combo take?
We recommend a minimum of 2 months. This allows 4-6 weeks for a thorough Divemaster internship and 2 weeks for the IDC. Rushing it (Zero to Hero in 3 weeks) often produces weak instructors.
Is the free accommodation guaranteed?
Free dorm accommodation is included in our "Full Combo" packages, subject to availability. We recommend booking at least 2-3 months in advance to secure your bed, especially during high season (June-September).
What are the prerequisites?
You need to be a PADI Rescue Diver with at least 40 logged dives to start the DM, and 100 logged dives to take the IE. Don't worry if you're short on divesβ€”you'll get plenty during the internship!
