What does IDC Guide think of you?
Quite simply the most professional and knowledgeable Instructor trainers we have ever met, you will meet plenty of divers and Instructors that have nothing by praise for the ‘IDC dream team’. If you are a Divemaster and want to do your IDC in the UK or in Egypt or Spain then look no further that our PADI IDC.

Why do you do your PADI IDCs with this Dive Centre?
They can offer you the ideal facilities for a great IDC. The first thing that you’ll notice as you walk through the large well stocked showroom is that the friendly staff are there to help you, and make sure that you have everything that you need.
You’ll soon make friends with all of the staff, and they in turn will all have genuine desire for you to become the very best instructor that you can be. Ocean View has its own Swimming pool right on site and attached to the shop. The pool has been custom built for Scuba Instruction. It has two depths, 1.5 metres, and 4 metres. The Pool is always kept at around 30 degrees. It is perfect for IDC’s. It is so very easy to schedule pool time exactly when we need it, rather than rely on municipal pools that are available late at night and often a long drive away. Another bonus at Ocean View is the large drying area, so there’s no need to put wet scuba gear into your car boot.
With its close proximity to Brighton, there is plenty of good value accommodation and good value cafes and restaurants close by.
Relaxing at the end of the day is an important part of the IDC. Ocean View has its own bar on site, which makes a welcome watering hole.
Alternatively, if you like to walk or jog to relax, the Dive Centre is situated only 100 metres from the sea front promenade, so you can exercise safely in the fresh seaside air.
