Program Description

Spend 16 weeks on a tropical island gaining an international Cambridge A-level. Enjoy the sunshine, sand and scuba while you study. Take your Open Water and Advanced PADI dive qualifications alongside this affordable course. Enjoy reef conservation. Join our remarkable team of dedication professional marine scientists. Leave with knowledge, skills, great friends and a lifetime experience.

We cover all manner of ecosystems in this practical intensive course. These lessons include sea grass beds, mangroves, coral reefs, muddy and sandy shores, coastal processes, and open oceans. We will instruct students on sand sieves, fishing techniques, plankton nets, scuba diving and much more. We are located in an environmentally rich area. Students will be taught to dive up to the advanced diver level and students will also learn how to conduct scientific exploration including marine conservation, experiments, and surveys.

This is an “A” level course that is the exact same as programs in colleges, international schools, and schools in the UK. This can be used as part of meeting entrance requirements for university since this is an internationally recognised course. The last weeks of the course will feature the exam, which are done during the same time frame as all other Cambridge exams. Results are released in August and will be marked by an examiner from Cambridge.
