Many world travelers and adventure seekers choose to have a destination wedding. Do you and your future husband/wife love to scuba? Well, there’s an app for that! The world’s largest diver training organization, Professional Association of Diving Instructors, recently launched the PADI mobile application. Available on Android phones, the iPhone and the iPad, you can now easily locate a PADI certified dive shop or resort anywhere in the world.

If you’re traveling abroad for your honeymoon or in a tropical locale for your destination wedding, the PADI mobile application can help you find a certified dive shop near you by searching via city, postal code, country or current location. The Dive Shop Locator will populate results displayed as pins on a map or in a list format. Select the location you’re interested in and the application will direct you to a Store Info Screen where you’ll find details such as the store’s phone number, business hours and courses offered.
News and Events regarding professional scuba diving will also be added to the application periodically. The PADI app is available to download for free through iTunes for the iPhone and iPad users and through the Android Market for Android OS phones and tablets. For more information about the PADI app visit the PADI Mobile Apps page. Happy diving!
