Roatan Marine ParkNote from the Roatan Marine Park:

Dear visitor please help us protect Roatan's most valuable recourse the coral reef. When snorkeling or scuba diving please do not touch or step on the coral as this will kill it and do not remove anything other than trash.
Do not buy shells and pieces of coral such as sea fans or jewelry made from black coral etc. Even though these items are widely available from street vendors it is illegal.
Locals will harvest anything just to make a little cash today disregarding the sustainability of their livelihood for the future.

The Instructor Development Course IDC in Roatan at Subway Watersports runs over 12 days and offers small classes of a maximum 6 students each month directly followed by a local 2 day Instructor Examination.

Our IDC includes (at no additional cost); "Welcome to Roatan" airport/ferry transfers, 2008 Roatan Marine Park Pass, diving before & after the IDC, free use of our dive equipment during training, staff lunches during the course, accommodation (double occupancy with another PADI Pro candidate), daily transport from our accommodation to/from the resort and transport to the IE with full logistical support from your IDC Staff.

Subway Watersports was built to offer the best value in dive education to our students and is the only IDC facility in the Bay Islands of Honduras to have everything in one location; Dive Center, air-conditioned digital multimedia classroom, full service dive resort, a freshwater pool that conforms to PADI standards (a BIG bonus when practicing skills and learning teaching techniques) dive equipment retail & repair shop, Enriched Air (NITROX) blending station, and a dive boat dedicated to the use of the IDC (for ease of scheduling). 

After completing the IDC we offer Instructor Specialty Training and placement/internships at a variety of dive centers on Roatan. This helps new Dive Instructors gain experience, a work reference and employment. In 2007/8 over 80% of the Instructors hired on Roatan came from our programs.

Our IDC (Instructor Development Course) program also includes the Emergency First Response Instructor rating. As announced in January this year EFR Instructor is to be required for all new PADI Instructors by March 2009.

We have an expanded IDC curriculum to include the National Geographic Program, Workshops in; Discover Scuba Diving, Adventures in Diving, Rescue Diver, eRDP use, knot tying, lift bag use and PADIs newest digital revolution e-Learning. We want you to be ready for the challenges of being an OWSI (Open Water Scuba Instructor) - wherever your dreams will take you.  

We are the only dive center in the Bay Islands to have small classes of 6 maximum and plan for lots of time for additional practice. Our level of preparation will increase your ease of learning – we expect you will even have fun!
