Our team
A husband and wife team, in diving as in life: we both hold the highest French state diving diplomas, Emmanuel is a Regional Instructor and vice-president of the Guadeloupe technical committee, and we are both PADI instructors, Course Directors and SDI ITW.
Bilingual in French and English, close-knit and complementary, we created this school to share the underwater world of St Barts with you. With us you are part of the family, and friends are always welcome: a friendly, cheerful and safe adventure!
Isabelle
Corsican by birth, I have always loved the sea, but growing up with « Jaws » made me put my fins away at 10! I took them out again at 40 when I met Emmanuel, who proposed to me under the Elphinstone Arch in the Red Sea.
Trained at Isula Plongée in Ajaccio, then for the French state diploma at the CREPS in Antibes, I am also a PADI Instructor and SDI Course Director, and I can introduce you to deep diving or Nitrox.
A mother of two, I will take good care of your children.
We chose St Barts for its sunshine, its warm and crystal-clear waters, its marine life and the kindness of its people. Trust us with your diving holiday, or even your career change: you won’t regret it!
Emmanuel
At 7, I was already following my father spearfishing for groupers in Libya, and I took my first breath underwater at 12 in Guadeloupe. Since then, I have travelled the world in search of the wonders hidden beneath the surface.
A software engineer by training, for many years diving was my holiday passion.
In 2006, I decided to make it my job: diving clubs, dive businesses, seasons in the Mediterranean. That double experience taught me the strengths of each teaching approach. In October 2013, I left my former life behind.
French state diploma 2nd degree, Regional Instructor of Guadeloupe, cylinder inspector trainer, SDI/TDI Instructor Trainer and PADI MSDT, I train divers and instructors: I am the only one on the island with this level of qualification.
Jessica
Summers in Corsica with my feet in the water… and yet, after a difficult try dive at 9, I was told I would never be able to dive.
In 2017, I left Strasbourg to help Isa and Manu for one summer: surface support, welcoming guests, boat maintenance, office work. I started my Level 1 almost reluctantly, then Hurricane Irma made me want to stay.
One level led to the next, up to the French N4 in 2019, then MF1. Now a DEJEPS instructor and SDI instructor, I share my love of underwater life with kindness, adapting to everyone.
Marjorie
As a little girl, I followed my dad’s bubbles from the surface in the calanques of Cassis. First breaths underwater at 12 in a pool, Level 1 in French Polynesia, Level 2 in Corsica in 14 °C water.
After ten years in restaurants, I settled in St Barts and changed my life: two years later, I joined SERIAL DIVERS as an instructor. And I am still amazed by the richness of our marine reserve.
Aurore
DEJEPS, PADI OWSI, CMAS 2-star instructor, class 2B commercial diver: water is my element, I learned to swim before I could walk!
Born in Brittany, I discovered diving while travelling and fell in love with it. I earned my first instructor rating in Madagascar ten years ago. On holiday I still dive, and I share as much as I can my passion and the need to protect the oceans.
Laurent
Born in Sète, I grew up by the sea and dived summer and winter with family and friends, from Level 1 to Level 3.
French federal instructor in 2017, then DEJEPS, I led dives from Cerbère to Nice and in Corsica, before choosing a more exotic destination. I look forward to sharing great dives with you.
