Jeroen Ackermans

Jeroen did his first dives with a friend on Curacao and a passion was born. When he moved from Amsterdam to South Africa with his family, he hung up his chef’s hat and started diving full-time. He became a Divemaster and PADI Instructor, diving mostly in eastern South Africa and Mozambique. (Ask him about the Sardine Runs!) After some years, he moved to Aruba for the education of his son. He soon found us at Pure Diving and became an SDI Instructor as well. Fun fact: Jeroen’s wife, Fleur, is Aruba’s dive doctor!
