Mark Henderson

I was originally certified in 1978 while growing up in
Tampa. After school I served in the Marine Corps and then worked throughout South Florida in the Automotive Industry. I came down to Key Largo in 1986 to complete my Divemaster and fell in love with the area and lifestyle. Deciding to stay I completed my OW Scuba Instructor. In the years since, I have worked at Dive Centers mainly in the Lower Keys from Big Pine to Key West while working up through the PADI Instructor ratings and attaining my Captain‚s license. Having always known that the best diving in the Keys is in Key Largo and with some prompting from Hurricane Wilma I returned last year. I am now excited to be part of the 1st Class Team at Florida Keys Dive Center!!!
