PADI Marketing Academy 2026 - Chennai

The PADI Marketing Academy 2026 is a one-day, in-person event designed to help dive centres, resorts, and PADI Professionals build practical marketing skills they can apply immediately to their business.

Marketing has always been important in attracting and converting divers, but the tools, platforms, and expectations placed on dive businesses continue to grow. This Academy focuses on clear, achievable marketing approaches that work in today’s environment.

What You’ll Learn

This year’s Academy focuses on four core areas that directly impact enquiries, bookings, and visibility:

✅ Social media trends, strategy and planning that’s clear and achievable

✅ Content storytelling that turns real dive experiences into bookings

✅ The future of search across Google, social platforms, and AI

✅ Psychological triggers that influence booking decisions

Each session is designed for dive operations - not professional marketers - with frameworks, examples, and tools you can apply directly in your dive centre or resort.

Hands-On Workshops

Each event will also include interactive workshops, where you’ll apply what you’ve learned from two of the presentations with the support of the PADI team.
