Amazing first week in Tenerife

Mermaid Diving PADI Divemaster Internship Program Blog Steve week 1

Upon arriving at Mermaid diving for our PADI Divemaster Internship program, my buddy Nate and I were greeted at the shop by Buzz and were given our new names. Now known as Steve, and Nate as Alan, we were given a tour of the beautiful facilities, shown our new ride, and taken to our big apartment.

Things kicked off the next day when we took our first dive trip to El Puertito where the sun was shining, the water was clear, and I met my first Sea turtle! I was amazed at how comfortable these massive sea turtles were with the divers in the water, they came right up close to investigate because they have very poor vision.

 Things were even more amazing the next day when we were given the opportunity to dive our first deep water ship wreck! At Tabaiba, I dove deeper than I’ve ever gone – 30 metres! We were lucky enough to have great visibility and I recorded the dive with my first Go Pro video. I can honestly say that things have turned out better than I could have ever asked for so far on this trip.

 I would recommend to anyone who enjoys the underwater to take a trip and dive with the friendly staff here at Mermaid diving.
