"Outstanding Contribution to the Scuba Diving Industry" 2010

Crystal Dive’s Platinum Course Director Matt Bolton has recently picked up yet another industry award. Whilst in Australia with fellow industry leaders for a series of meetings and brain storming sessions arranged by PADI, Matt received the "Outstanding Contribution to the Scuba Diving Industry 2010" award on behalf of Crystal Dive.

The award recognises Crystal's position as the industry leader in the fields of diver training, education, business and the environment. Recognising the fantastic role the entire team has played over the past several years, this is the 17th award that Matt has collected either for himself or on behalf of Crystal making Crystal 'Koh Tao's Award Winning Dive Centre'.

A big thanks to all involved with Crystal Dive Resort success story over the past decade. Growing from strength to strength, the efforts of each individual working within our team has contributed to the position we find ourselves in now.

During this trip Matt visited Sydney & Cairns where the subjects discussed included the current state & future growth of the industry, local governmental legislation, and the differences with conducting business in the variety of different countries within the Asia Pacific Region.
