FREE SSI DIVEMASTER INTERNSHIP FOR INDONESIAN CITIZENS AT OCEANS 5 GILI AIR

TURN YOUR PASSION FOR DIVING INTO A PROFESSIONAL CAREER

Are you an Indonesian citizen with a Rescue Diver certification who dreams of becoming a professional Divemaster?

Perhaps you want to guide divers around Indonesia’s incredible reefs. Maybe you dream about working in Raja Ampat, Komodo, Bali, the Gili Islands or another famous Indonesian diving destination. Or perhaps becoming a Divemaster is only the first step toward your ultimate goal of becoming a scuba diving instructor.

At Oceans 5 Gili Air, we believe motivated Indonesian divers should have the opportunity to build a professional career in their own country’s diving industry.

That is why Oceans 5 Gili Air offers a special four-month SSI Divemaster Internship scholarship exclusively for Indonesian citizens.

And when we say scholarship, we mean it.

There is no Divemaster course fee charged by Oceans 5 Gili Air. Candidates only need to pay the required SSI Divemaster digital learning materials and SSI professional registration/membership fees.[1]

There are no hidden Oceans 5 training fees.

There is no obligation to work for Oceans 5 after completing the program.

Most importantly, this is not a program where candidates work for months simply in exchange for receiving a certification at the end.

This is a proper professional SSI Divemaster course and internship.

Our objective is simple: to develop excellent Indonesian dive professionals who are ready to enter the diving industry.

WHY ALL DIVE GUIDES AT OCEANS 5 GILI AIR ARE CERTIFIED LOCAL SSI DIVEMASTERS

When you join a dive at Oceans 5 Gili Air, one thing immediately stands out: every certified diver is guided by a local Indonesian SSI Divemaster. This is not a coincidence, nor is it simply a company preference. It is a conscious decision based on three important principles: complying with Indonesian law, supporting the local community, and providing guests with highly trained professionals who know the Gili Islands better than anyone else.

Many visitors to Indonesia are surprised to learn that foreign dive guides are generally not permitted to work as recreational dive guides. While foreign instructors can obtain the correct permits to teach scuba diving courses, Indonesian immigration and manpower regulations do not provide a work permit specifically for foreigners to work as recreational dive guides.[1][2] As a result, responsible dive centers follow these regulations by employing qualified Indonesian Divemasters to guide certified divers.

At Oceans 5 Gili Air, we have embraced this philosophy from the very beginning. Every guide is an Indonesian SSI Divemaster who has completed extensive professional training, knows the local environment intimately, and plays an important role in protecting the marine ecosystem surrounding Gili Air.

TECH DIVING AT OCEANS 5 GILI AIR

TAKE YOUR DIVING BEYOND THE RECREATIONAL LIMITS

For many scuba divers, earning an Open Water certification is just the beginning of an incredible underwater journey. After completing Advanced Adventurer, Deep Diving, Nitrox, or Rescue Diver, many divers start wondering what lies beyond the recreational limits. What is it like to explore deeper reefs, spend longer underwater, or visit dive sites that recreational divers simply cannot reach?

The answer is technical diving, often called tech diving.

At Oceans 5 Gili Air, technical diving is more than simply diving deeper. It is about becoming a better, more disciplined, and highly skilled diver. Whether your goal is to explore deep reefs, prepare for scientific expeditions, photograph untouched marine life, or simply challenge yourself, technical diving opens an entirely new world beneath the surface.[1]

The goal is to create confident, knowledgeable, and highly employable dive professionals who understand every aspect of operating a professional dive centre. From real-world guiding experience to conservation activities and instructor-level exposure, the internship at Oceans 5 is designed to prepare candidates for a long career in the diving industry, not just for passing an evaluation.

Why Diving Around the Gili Islands Is One of the World’s Most Exciting Underwater Adventures

Imagine floating effortlessly through warm tropical water while a green sea turtle glides silently beneath you. Schools of colourful reef fish surround vibrant coral gardens, a juvenile white-tip reef shark rests peacefully beneath a coral overhang, and the current gently carries you across one of Indonesia’s healthiest reef systems. This is not a once-in-a-lifetime experience—it is an ordinary day of scuba diving around the Gili Islands [3][4].

Located just off the northwest coast of Lombok, Gili Air, Gili Meno, and Gili Trawangan have earned an international reputation as one of Southeast Asia’s premier diving destinations. Every year thousands of divers travel here because the islands offer something that few places can: spectacular marine life combined with conditions suitable for every level of diver, from complete beginners to experienced professionals [1][4].

Whether you want to learn scuba diving, complete your SSI Open Water certification, photograph turtles, experience exciting drift dives or simply enjoy warm crystal-clear water, the Gili Islands deliver unforgettable underwater experiences.

How to Make Yourself More Attractive to Dive Centers as a Dive Instructor

Becoming a scuba diving instructor is an exciting achievement, but earning your instructor certification is only the beginning of your professional career. If you are searching for your first job, you have probably noticed that many dive centers advertise vacancies with specific language requirements. It is common to see job advertisements asking for instructors who speak French, Spanish, German, Dutch, Italian, or other languages in addition to English.
If you only speak English, you may feel that your opportunities are limited.
The good news is that language is not the only way to make yourself more attractive to employers. There are several ways to increase your value as a professional dive instructor, and one of the best investments you can make is continuing your dive education.

If you’re ready to take the next step in your diving career, we’d be happy to help.
