What are the responsibilities and job description for the Snuba Guide/Dive Guide position at SNUBA Key West?
Get paid to be a dive guide in Key West!
We are a small, family-owned dive shop located in Key West, Florida and truly love what we do! We offer SNUBA excursions, cocktail cruises, sandbar charters, SCUBA excursions, and SCUBA certification courses. We are looking for a professional, reliable, and friendly dive guide to join our awesome crew! To be a SNUBA guide, the diver must be at least Rescue certified. However, we are open to the possibility of training someone who already has their Open Water certification (as an OW diver, you can still work as an excursion photographer!).
SNUBA is the largest affiliated dive organization in the world with dive centers everywhere from Aruba to Taiwan. The perfect combination between snorkeling and SCUBA diving, SNUBA offers uncertified divers and swimmers the chance to breathe underwater while exploring the marine world. For most of our guests, this is their first diving experience, and our guides are responsible for providing a fun and safe environment. Our dive program is similar to a hotel resort course, with only slight differences. The tank remains on the surface in a floating raft, and guests are equipped with a breathing apparatus attached to an air hose 20 feet in length. Trips typically last from 3 to 4 hours, from check-in to returning to the dock.
We operate all year long and our guides' income is well above the normal rate, starting at $65 per trip, plus $15 per guest guided and tip share. Our guides can easily make $155 tips per trip once experienced!
Perks of being an administrative assistant at Snuba Key West:
- If interested, you will also have the option to earn extra income by working a shift every now and then on our Good Times boat for sunset cruises and private sandbar charters.
- Looking to add on to your diving resume and increase your certifications? We have Divemasters and a Dive Instructor on staff!
- Crew are always welcome to join us on our Snuba trips and cocktail cruises during their off time!
- We take occasional staff trips out cocktail cruises, SCUBA dives, and other staff outings.
Applicants must be DEPENDABLE, drug-free, family-friendly, punctual, and customer service-oriented. Rescue Diver Certification is required, as well as the current First Aid/CPR Certifications. If you meet these qualifications, and you live in or near Key West and are available for employment promptly, please contact 305.292.4616
