Michel Lavoie

PADI Course Director

Michel is our very own Jacques Cousteau and our resident PADI Course Director – the highest level possible within PADI recreational diving. He loves scuba diving, still gets a kick out of certifying divers at any level and still gets up eager to get to the shop. He likes to make jokes but he’s not very good at it, well, sometimes he is! Don’t tell him we told you.

Ginette Bariteau

PADI Instructor

Ginette became an ACUC dive instructor over 17 years ago before crossing over to PADI. Her passion is studying coral reef ecology, fish behavior and running citizen scientist programs. She’s our green watchdog and the person responsible for us earning the prestigious Blue Certified accreditation. Her passion for the ocean is infectious and she’s known for never having a bad dive. Her most famous words are: “there’s always something interesting to see no matter what the viz is.” She’s also very good at keeping her husband Michel busy.
