The World Association of Diving Instructors (WADI) is a cutting-edge association that emerged in August 2021, backed by over 20 years of meticulous preparation and scientific research across various diving domains. Drawing from the invaluable insights of seasoned experts who have explored the depths of the world's oceans for the past decade, we have crafted a unique system that prioritises safety while enhancing the overall enjoyment of divers. Our approach ushers in a new era in the diving industry, embracing advanced materials and meticulously moderated equipment, harnessing technology, and carving out a space for innovation in the diving world. Above all, we are committed to preserving and safeguarding the environment.

Our primary focus lies in creating an optimal environment for divers of all skill levels and the instructors who guide them. We are dedicated to continuously updating our diving practices, ensuring our members are equipped with the latest techniques and knowledge. Environmental preservation is a cornerstone of our mission, and we strive to instil a deep sense of responsibility in today's divers and instructors to collectively shape the future of diving.
