Troy Smith
Instructor / IT Guru
Bonaire is my favorite place to dive because of the freedom to dive when, where, and however long you want in one of the most beautiful underwater environments in the Caribbean.
Favorite class to teach: My favorite class to teach is Open Water, but my personal diving passion is Underwater Photography.
I was certified in 2003 and became a dive professional in 2015. I have been fortunate to dive in many places including California, Florida, Hawaii, Mexico, Belize, Roatan, Costa Rica, Venezuela, and all over the Caribbean. I love underwater photography, night dives, and navigation. Working with International Scuba, I have continued to enhance my knowledge through personal and professional dive certifications. The International Scuba family has been supportive by always encouraging me to take the next step and sharing knowledge whenever possible, and I enjoy passing that knowledge along to others. I really enjoy teaching someone to do something for the first time, helping them overcome a personal fear or succeed at conquering a problem, or simply sharing in the excitement when they fulfill a dream.
Surprising fact: I had the opportunity to play on stage in the backup orchestra for Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) during one of their concerts.
