Pro Dive International confirms inauguration of new dive centre in Dominican Republic
Pro Dive International, one of the Caribbean’s most established PADI 5 Star Dive Resorts and recognized Career Development Centers, has announced the acquisition of a new dive center in the Dominican Republic – at the Catalonia Gran Dominicus in Bayahibe, one year after the opening of their first base overseas, at the Occidental Punta Cana in Bavaro.
With its turquoise, crystal clear calm waters of the Caribbean Sea, Bayahibe is renowned as the Dominican Republic’s hot spot for diving, guaranteeing short boat rides and transfer times to the island’s best dive sites, most vibrant coral reefs, three ship wrecks – Atlantic Princess, St. George & Coco – as well as Isla Saona and Catalina.
Beach lovers will fully enjoy Bayahibe’s inviting soft white-sand beaches that belong to the most spectacular in the country. The small fishing village located 16km/10miles off La Romana on the southeast coast has its own very unique charm compared with other locations on the island. Small wooden houses, the green wooden church, cafés and breathtaking views at the palm-fringed lagoon invite to indulge.
“Our newly built, modern dive center will provide a lot of space and be an ample facility for our guests and their gear. Brand-new top shelf equipment by Scubapro – the world’s most reliable scuba gear brand committed to producing top quality and innovative diving equipment – will be available for rent, including BCD’s, wetsuits, snorkels, regulators and masks. Besides air fills, Nitrox will be offered,” says Markus Fleischmann, CEO and founder of Pro Dive International – Mexico & Pro Dive Dominican Republic
Savor the all-inclusive lushness of a paradise in an idyllic atmosphere, fused with magnificent diving. Competitive stay & dive packages can be booked with Pro Dive International’s multilingual in-house reservation team directly, or with all well known dive travel agencies world-wide, shortly.
