Simon Cassidy
Simon started learned to dive with Dive Source at the original location at "The Orchard" and never looked back. Now a PADI Master Instructor, he says that his favourite course to teach is still the Openwater diver course, as he loves to see the transformation in students from newbie to super smiling certified diver, which makes everyone's efforts so worthwhile.
His favourite local dive spots - Tobermory and Humber/ Toronto waterfront as it's still cool to surface from a dive on a Summer evening looking at the Toronto skyline lit up.
Simon and his wife love to travel when they can and have been all around the Caribbean, Florida, Mexico, Panama as well as their carribean favourite Roatan. They have also been to the Maldives, Oman & hopefully the South Pacific soon!
