VOTED AS CANADA’S #1 DIVE SHOP | TRAINING HAPPY DIVERS FOR OVER 40 YEARS

OUR PADI 5 STAR RATING

WE ARE PROUD TO BE RECOGNIZED BY PADI WITH THE UNIQUE DISTINCTION

What is a PADI 5 Star Instructor Dive Center?

The PADI 5 Star IDC membership level is awarded to progressive PADI Dive Centers that excel in providing dive consumers with a full range of diver education programs, equipment selection, and experience opportunities and that actively promote aquatic environmental awareness.

A PADI 5 Star IDC is active in its community, presenting a professional image consistent with, or better than, the norm of the marketplace. These dive centers embrace the PADI System of diver education and are committed to providing customers with quality products, services and experiences.

Why Is A 5 Star IDC Rating Important To You As A New Diver?

PADI is the largest scuba certifying agency in the world – over 85% of the world’s divers hold PADI certifications. PADI only awards Dive Centers with a 5-Star rating if they truly strive for long-term excellence in teaching, safety, and customer satisfaction.

When a Dive Shop earns the 5-Star rating from PADI, it indicates to you, the customer, that you will have the best scuba instruction and experience possible from the world’s largest Scuba organization.

What Does “Instructor Development Center” Mean?

It means that Float N’ Flag Dive Center instructors are able to teach not only the standard range of PADI courses that all dive shops teach; we also have PADI Course Directors, PADI Master Instructors and PADI IDC Staff Instructors on staff – 5 of them to be exact – who are able to take our divers to the professional level if they want to be more involved and continue their learning.

We educate our most advanced divers to earn their professional diver certifications such as Divemaster, Assistant Instructor, Open Water Scuba Instructor, EFR Instructor, and more! Only highly certified instructors with years of experience are able to transition divers to the professional level.
