PADI IDC Dates

Sadananda Dutta didn’t just find diving—he grew with it, one breath at a time. A local from the Andamans, Sada has spent over a decade underwater, logging 5000+ dives and mentoring over 300 students across all recreational levels. But his journey started far from the spotlight—with quiet determination, relentless curiosity, and a deep love for the sea. Long before certifications and credentials, Sada was that person who simply kept showing up. “I just fell in love with the ocean,” he says, “so I never really left.” Over the years, he trained at one of the Andamans’ most reputed IDC Centres and carved a space for himself through sheer grit. From guiding first-time divers to assisting in numerous Instructor Development Courses with Platinum Course Director Mark Soworka, Sada built his career with patience and purpose.

Today, he’s more than an instructor—he’s a symbol of what’s possible when passion meets perseverance. A kayaking instructor, CMAS equipment specialist, primary school teacher, and tour coordinator– Sada brings a wealth of experience to the table. But what sets him apart is his calm, grounded presence and the way he bridges diving with local identity. At ScubaLov, he now leads all professional diving programs and acts as the quiet compass many of us look to. He mentors with empathy, teaches with heart, and reminds everyone around him that you don’t need to leave home to build something extraordinary. The ocean will always guide you, one dive at a time. Ready to learn with the best? Enquire about our next PADI IDC Dates today!
