Silvano Eberle
PADI Master Instructor #500041
Dive Manager
Silvano comes all the way from Switzerland with a detour via our sister company Crystal Mauritius, where he had the position as Senior Instructor. Silvano has a background in teaching but started to dry out and changed his environment to showing people the amazing underwater world. He deep deep down believes he has incredible dancing skills, but truth being his mentor skills are really what will optimise his career. Silvano is fluent and teaching in both German and English, and has restricted his dancing career too friday nights.
Kyle Rowland
PADI Staff Instructor #532347
Kyle is from the UK and took his first plunge underwater in 2009, 15 years ago in Greece. Kyle has been through nearly every career from engineering to banking, but there was always something missing. That little drop to fill the glass or should we say, ocean. He has finally found his element and made our waters a better place to be. Kyle is probably the most patient instructor you will ever meet on you way. If Kyle is not at crystal you will probably find him shopping for new and more equipment.
Hegi Siregar
PADI Instructor #543474
Hegi is from Sumatra and grew up amongst the mountains far far away from the ocean. Hegi is well travelled and has a degree in tourism. No matter if you are an early bird or a night owl you will always find Hegi’s big smile welcoming you, which could be based on the fact that there is free internet at Crystal. He speaks fluent English, Indonesian, Batak and is currently studying Korean and French. Hegi is our also our marketing manager and always makes sure to capture our good moments both above and below the surface
Andrea Sagastume Dorè Krøytzer
PADI Instructor #535478
Andrea came in to do a fun dive with Crystal and was really hard to get rid off, so we decided to employ her. Andrea is Danish and Guatemalan, and has studied fashion in Paris, before she swapped out the little black dress for the long black wetsuit. Andrea truly enjoys bubbles, wether its underwater, in a champagne flute or in her mind, you will not meet a more bubbly person. She speaks Danish, French, Spanish, English and Swahili.
