About Darryl:
Darryl Started Diving in November 2000. He developed a passion for it in his first year and started working on his advanced, rescue, wreck and other qualifications to become a PADI Divemaster. After working as Dive Master on boats, assisting with classes and leading fun dives, he became an instructor in 2008. Darryl has always worked in the food service industry. With his passion for food and diving, he became a passionate underwater hunter while at the same time developing a concern and commitment to help protect the environment. He is passionate about teaching new and existing students in diving, with emphasis on good buoyancy control , safe beach diving entries and exits, and overall being a good ambassador to protect the ever so delicate aquatic life we get to experience while diving. Darryl's favorite class to teach is the PADI Rescue Class because of its intensity and level of confidence it develops in students
