About SUEX
SUEX is an Italian Diver Propulsion Vehicle manufacturer that was founded in 2000 with the aim of producing high-performance underwater vehicles designed for long-range technical and professional diving. Today, SUEX represents cutting-edge technology in underwater mobility, offering diving aficionados a unique, engaging diving experience, even at recreational level.
Performance, reliability, a complete products range and a good global service are the cornerstones that make SUEX the undisputed leader in the underwater diving propulsion vehicles market. Diving a SUEX DPV is an amazing experience. It grants both a high level of manoeuvrability in overhead environments and an extreme comfort during extensive cruising.
PADI and BluEmotion have successfully run similar workshops in the past and the feedback has always been very positive. “We are super pleased with the DPV’s and have in less than two months got our investment back. Staff are also excited as it gives them an alternative option to dive and ways to explore the surrounding reefs.” – Manuel Tobolars, General Manager of Dive Butler Maldives.
We look forward to welcoming you to an informative, fun and busy 2-day DPV Professional workshop on Himandhoo which you will leave with a new PADI Speciality Instructor certificate, a lot of knowledge and insights into Diver Propulsion Vehicles and hopefully a couple of new SUEX scooters for your next customers.
