Pro Dive International hosts second Annual PADI Women’s Dive Day
Pro Dive International has announced their participation in the second annual PADI Women’s Dive Day on July 16th, 2016.
In its inauguration year in 2015, PADI Women’s Dive Day featured events across 65 countries and all seven continents – a historic day in diving history.
PADI Marketing Director Katie Thompson said that the ratio of male to female SCUBA divers was about 65 percent men to 35 percent women. “We thought we could break down these barriers and create a community of women in diving and balance out that ratio a little bit, so we created a day to get people together.”
“We love this idea, and would like to encourage more women to join this amazing sport. Therefore we would like to invite you to join Pro Dive International at any of our dive centers along the Riviera Maya and Cozumel/ Mexico, or Punta Cana/ Dominican Republic,” says Maria Jose Lledo, Operations Manager at Pro Dive International.
On this occasion, Pro Dive International are offering a 50% discount on 2 dives for all diver girls on PADI Women’s Dive Day, and invites them to partake in their Facebook Selfie Contest to win a 6-Tank Dive Package.
More information about this event can be found here.

Over the next 12 months, specialist scuba holiday company Dive Worldwide will be supporting Bite-Back Shark & Marine Conservation with donations collected from client bookings to any one of its stunning dive destinations around the world. The independently-owned operator expects to raise £3000 for the UK charity.
Manager at Dive Worldwide, Phil North, said: “We’re especially excited to work with Bite-Back and support its intelligent, creative and results-driven campaigns to end the UK trade in shark products and prompt a change in attitudes to the ocean’s most maligned inhabitant.”
Bite-Back is running campaigns to hold the media to account on the way it reports shark news along with a brand new nationwide education programme. Last year the charity was credited for spearheading a UK ban on the import and export of shark fins.
Campaign director at Bite-Back, Graham Buckingham, said: “We’re enormously grateful to Dive Worldwide for choosing to support Bite-Back. The company’s commitment to conservation helps set it apart from other tour operators and we’re certain its clients admire and respect that policy. For us, the affiliation is huge and helps us look to the future with confidence we can deliver against key conservation programmes.”
To launch the fundraising initiative, Phil North presented Graham Buckingham with a cheque for £1,000.
Visit Dive Worldwide to discover its diverse range of international scuba adventures and visit Bite-Back to learn more about the charity’s campaigns.
