My name is
Steve Robinson
IDC Staff Instructor
PADI Number:
63713
I started diving in 1989 and just recently received my 30th Anniversary Achievement Award from PADI. I met my wife, Alison through diving and currently my family all dive which makes holidays especially fun. It’s a great sport that allows you to meet a lot of people and make friends for life
What's your favourite course?
If I have to choose then it would be Rescue Diver as it is a lot of fun, however any course that introduces the diver to the sea is magical!
Where's your favourite place to dive?
This is a difficult one, there are so many but three that stand out for me;
St Kilda – Outer Hebrides with spectacular scenery above and below the water
SS Yongala Wreck –  sank in a cyclone off the coast of Queensland Australia in 1911 – Masses of life, fantastic night dive
Maldives – Manta rays, whale Sharks, turtles, sea snakes and dolphins
Any tips for a new diver?
Take time to enjoy your journey, try to become independent with your own equipment and progress to Rescue Diver, you are then free to really enjoy your diving
