Who Am I

A catchy phrase turned into a philosophy.

Dive Like A Ninja was established in 2010 by Tamara May, an Australian dive professional whose passion for diving was inspired by her mother’s stories of wrecks and reefs. Tamara’s journey began in Thailand, where she completed her technical training in cave and wreck diving, eventually becoming a PADI Staff and Technical Diving Instructor.

Over the years, she has explored the underwater wonders of destinations such as the Maldives, Egypt, Sardinia, Malta, Gozo, France, Spain, Indonesia, Australia, U.S.A and Mexico. Her adventure continued with a move to Mexico in 2014, focusing on cave diving, where she worked as both an instructor and guide in Tulum, and later in Portofino, Italy.

In 2020, she embarked on her journey to become a cave instructor and has since gained experience as a PSAI Cavern Instructor and cave guide. Tamara participated in significant expeditions, such as Expedition Xunaan Ha and Expedition Buteng, enriching her diving experience.

Now based in the Philippines at Evolution Beach Resort, Tamara continues to immerse herself in the depths while planning to revisit Papua New Guinea to dive its historic wrecks and hidden gems. The spirit of curiosity and adventure remains the driving force behind her diving philosophy.
