Slow Dive Casa Chihuahua

Slow Dive Casa Chihuahua is an eco-friendly PADI dive school in Bayahibe, Dominican Republic, built around small-group diving and personalised attention for every diver. With two PADI instructors and a genuine conservation focus, it's a place for those who want to learn thoughtfully — running marine conservation programs and internships alongside its courses and land-and-sea excursions.

Courses and diving

The PADI course path runs from Discover Scuba Diver all the way to Divemaster. Two structured programs anchor the schedule: the PADI Open Water Diver course (from USD 460, around 4 days) and the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver course (from USD 380, around 3 days). Instruction is available in English, Spanish and French.

Local dives explore sites such as Viva Shallow and Guadalupe, where you may encounter sharks, turtles, rays, eels, ocean fish, corals and more. On land, free Wi-Fi, a dive boat and onsite accommodation keep everything close. It suits divers who value a slower, conservation-minded approach and personal attention over the crowds.
