Big Blue - Northeast Coast
Okay, let's talk about Big Blue. If you're looking to really get serious about your diving in Taiwan, this is the place. They’re a PADI 5 Star IDC centre, which means they’re geared up for all levels, but honestly, their real strength lies in instructor development. We’d send anyone looking to go pro here in a heartbeat. The team at Big Blue are some of the most dedicated educators we’ve come across, making the step from divemaster to instructor feel genuinely achievable, even for those of us who dread exams. What we love about them is their approach to teaching, it’s meticulous without being overwhelming. You feel supported, not just pushed through a curriculum. They've got the full range of PADI courses, naturally, but it's the instructor ratings that truly shine here. Expect detailed briefings and debriefings, a real focus on skill refinement, and a good dose of local knowledge about the Northeast Coast sites. You'll spend plenty of time in the water, getting a feel for the local conditions, which often means negotiating some interesting currents and finding those tiny nudibranchs we all love hunting for. If you’re serious about diving as a career, or just want to learn from the best in Taiwan, Big Blue is our pick.
