Hope to dive with you again, great experience - I was unable to dive due to injury but I would go to the shop everyday and was greeted, they have a nice sitting area next to the water... read more to relax. When the boat would arrive back my husband would tell me about his day. Our group went out on the boat for 3 dives a day for 5 days, (first two were 60 mins and the third was 45mins. My husbands group had both Josh and Erica as the dive guides, they both did a great job keeping the group together, they were easy to dive with, courteous, professional, and had fun. The Captain, who also came to get the group every day at the hotel was very nice, had a smile on his face and was safe regardless of driving the trucks or the boat. The boats are big and comfortable as mentioned in other reports, food and drinks were available. All and all it was a great experience and we will return again. thanks to all. In addition, I'd like to that Matt for all the pictures If made me feel like i was underwater.

I just did my open water diving licence there and the guys from the Diving Center are doing a very professional job (they are not overwhelmingly friendly or funny, I... read more felt like they keep a professionelle distance)
, everything went on really fluent, the boat trip to the spots was enjoyable (thanks to the anti sea-sickness pills from the Diving Center), the food was delicious, the thai staff was extremely friendly, and the dives have been nice! I did the course because I am/was really afraid of deep water, the sea, swimming... I always felt like water is just not my element. With all the knowledge I got and my very calm and sophisticated teacher (thanks Raf) I managed to go down and keep breathing. From Dive to dive my fear shrunk and I could enjoy my experience. The only thing what I was missing was a long wetsuit as I started freezing at the end of every dive.

Then the next 2 days of diving in the ocean we dove at 5 different places, all with amazing sea life. The shop and boat was clean and organized. The crew and dive instructors were very helpful.

Thank you!
