PADI MSDT, Tec Divemaster

Kerry is a seasoned Tec diver and can be found exploring depths of up to 70m with her twinset or rebreather, and is a Ghost Fishing UK project diver.

At only 5ft 2inches tall, Kerry knows how being small can be a disadvantage when it comes to Tec diving, so she can provide support and advice to even the smallest of Tec divers, and can help with both theory and in-water skill development.

Kerry is also on hand to chat and answer questions that are specific to the female Tec diver.

Tom Hannam

PADI Assistant Instructor, Tec Divemaster

I started diving in 2002 with a try dive on holiday and got hooked from there on. I love the peace and relaxation of diving so am happy underwater anywhere. I really like to introduce people to diving plus helping during courses as it’s great to see people get so enthused with it.
