What PADI Club Benefits Do Members Love?
We’ve been in touch with several members to hear what features of PADI Club they really are using and what they love about being a member. Ralph Celone shares his experience with PADI Club’s live celebrity webinars. Additionally, Stephen Atkins shares his memories from the 2022 PADI Club exclusive member event in the Florida Keys!
Free Exclusive Webinars
PADI Club provides members access to exclusive online webinars from coveted individuals in the dive industry. Furthermore, members can have their questions answered live! PADI Club Member Ralph Celone recently joined the webinar speaker series with Amos Nachoum.
When asked what he loves most about PADI Club, Ralph responded: “The webinars with the guest speakers are DEFINITELY my favourite benefit. First of all, I find them extremely interesting. They allow me access to people I would never be able to meet on my own. I really enjoy learning about various topics. The photographs and videos allow me to vicariously see and experience things that I will never be able to do in my lifetime.”
As a shark lover, Ralph watches Andy Casagrande every year on Discovery’s Shark Week and can’t wait for the upcoming “private” session with him through the Club.
Exclusive Member Events
Being a PADI Club member provides exclusive spots on unforgettable events across the globe!
Stephen Atkins is a PADI Divemaster, after beginning diving in 2017, and is now a member of PADI Club, too. He recently signed up to the PADI Club event in the Florida Keys. Being a lover of wreck diving, he was thrilled when his wife and daughter sent him to the event as a birthday gift.
After returning home from the event, Stephen expressed, “[I] would have to say that the Club trip totally exceeded my expectations. I had never gone on an all-inclusive dive trip before. It would not be a stretch to actually say that it changed me as a person. It was such a peaceful, tranquil, stress-free adventure”.
Additionally, he particularly loved that “everything was taken care of so that the only decisions [he] had to make was what to eat for the day.” Stephen added, “I will do this again and again. We all really bonded as a group.”

PADI Club members enjoy an annual subscription to Scuba Diving, the ultimate resource for travel inspiration, expert scuba gear reviews, dive training and photography tips, inspiring stories, and more.

“As an avid diver and UW photographer, I have enjoyed the pictures, techniques, and tips shared in the articles. I have seen how the advice has helped me to become a better photographer as well as a more conscious diver,“ shared PADI Club Member, Fernando G.
