Peter Baker
Training Manager
Peter began diving in Fiji during 2005 and took to it right away. The idea of becoming a scuba instructor was something Peter aspired to do from the beginning and in 2011 he left Dairy Farm Management to become a full time Dive Professional.
Peter started at NZ Sea Adventures early in 2012 as our Retail Manager and excelled for nearly four years. In 2015 Peter got the Training Manager role and never looked back. He is now an experienced and passionate Scuba Instructor with a shared passion for local diving and our ocean planet. If you’re looking to get started in Scuba Diving, want dive gear advice or want to take the next step in diving then be sure to catch him for a chat.
