Teaching and taking training at a GUE Dive Center will add an extra value to each course.

Choosing Portofino Divers as the dive base for your GUE training means optimizing the logistics, no waist of time, getting all the means for a successful course.
Our goal is to assists the instructor and the students in achieving the best results during the class.

The following benefits and incentives are dedicated to GUE instructors and students for all 2011 :

For all the students taking a recreational training program, all the gear is available for hire free of charge for all the duration of the class, except drysuits, primary light systems and dpv.  When these items are mandatory tools for the course they are available for rent at a special rate.
For tech training all the cylinders needed for the course, both primary and deco tanks, are at disposal of any candidates and instructor free of charge.

All the costs for nitrox and trimix fills are included in the dive center fee of each course, there are no additional costs for tank refills. For all GUE courses even the cost for the instructor fills is included in the dive center fee.

Once training is finished, for those divers whishing to join our team to be part of local projects or to explore the magnificent wrecks and reefs of our sea , the rent of all the gear is still totally free. This is a great opportunity to practise more and to gain experience for any level of training under the supervision of professional GUE divers.
In addition, both rec and tech re-evaluation sessions are available for students who got a provisional pass.

Also the instructor can travel to our facility without even one bolt snap since he can use our equipment free of charge, primary light included !  Anyway, if possible, we suggest to bring at least the undergarment and the drysuit which are more "personal" items.

Our goal is not only to offer great savings in terms of costs but also considerably improvement of travelling conditions which is one of the reasons why Portofino Divers is an excellent solution for courses, as instructors and students will find at their disposal all of the components required for setting up GUE/DIR diving equipment.

Another great advantage for both instructors and students choosing Portofino Divers as the dive facility for training and for experiencing, is our repairwork service for any part of the equipment which may fail during the course or during your diving holiday. We provide repairworks and spare parts for DUI drysuits, Halcyon products, all the accessories and components  for the GUE equipment  configuration. In case a quick repair is not possible, we have any part for rent to save your dive.
At Portofino Divers we are pround to say that the risk of missing a training or an exploration dive due to equipment failure is next to zero.
