Koka-Sub

For more than 34 years, Koka-Sub has been more than a dive school in São Paulo, Brazil — it's an institution, and one of the country's most respected. As a PADI 5 Star IDC with 20 PADI instructors, it pairs the highest standards of teaching and service with a reputation built on care, safety, and professionalism.

Courses and facilities

The center offers a full path from recreational PADI Scuba Diving through PADI TecRec technical training and PADI First Aid (EFR), backed by a filling station for compressed air, nitrox, and trimix. On-site you'll find a retail shop, two equipped classrooms, a coffee room, a maintenance room, air conditioning, and free Wi-Fi — plus a space to socialise once the diving is done.

Koka-Sub also runs regular community dives and conservation activities, and its divemasters and instructors return to "school" each year to refresh their first aid, rescue, and oxygen skills. With instruction in Portuguese, it suits everyone from first-timers to divers ready to go technical.
