Mark Sanderson
Mark Sanderson
Qualifications: PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor
More Info: Began my diving career in 2003, finally achieving my goal of Open Water Scuba Instructor in 2006. My main reason for working towards this qualification was to give me the ability to introduce students to the underwater world. Through this I can directly influence future diving behaviour and attitude towards the environmental issues threatening our oceans. The more people I can get underwater the greater peoples understanding of these issues will become.

Nigel Steels
Qualifications: Divemaster
More Info: I started diving in 2001 and progressed to Divemaster in 2006. The Divemaster course taught me so much more about the whole sport of diving and has increased the pleasure I get from being in the water, additionally it has given me the opportunity to share my experiences and skills with others who are taking their first steps into the underwater world.
I also enjoy underwater photography as this allows my to show the wonders of underwater life to people who have never had the opportunity to witness the marvelous sights that are to behold.
