Blue Whale Dive

Blue Whale Dive Center sits in Seogwipo, on South Korea's Jeju Island, where the focus is firmly on learning. As an educational organisation, the team guides divers through every stage of the journey — from freediving and scuba training all the way up to instructor-level development. Fun diving is on offer too, exploring the waters around Jeju's Munseom and Beomseom islands.

Courses and what to expect

As a PADI Dive Center, Blue Whale Dive runs the PADI Open Water Diver Course from USD 468, spread across roughly three days — an ideal starting point for newcomers ready to earn their first certification. With an onsite classroom and parking, the setup keeps theory and practice close at hand.

A full range of rental gear is available, covering scuba, freediving, kids' equipment and even DPV scooters, so divers of different interests and ages can find their footing. Sessions are run in both English and Korean, making it a welcoming choice for visiting and local divers alike.
