If you’re in Phuket, you must dive with Robbie and Pop! As first-timers, we were incredibly nervous, but their patience and calming energy put us at ease immediately. Not only are they experts at what they do, but they also have a gift for making you laugh when you need it most. They turned a daunting first dive into a truly magical experience. We couldn’t have asked for better instructors!

My husband and I went for our first scuba dive experience with Phuket Dive Tours. The entire tour was extremely well organized including hotel pickup and drop, gear, intermittent snacks and lunch on the boat (with special vegetarian request for us). We were assigned Johan as our instructor. He was remarkable and friendly - he provided very clear instructions and helped us understand our mistakes very well, so that we could do a better dive with each turn.

Moreover, I had a last minute request for a mask with -5 power, since I wear prescription glasses. And they were able to arrange it making it such an amazing and beautiful experience for me. Really appreciate all the efforts they put in for their customers.

I'd highly recommend this for anyone going for scuba in Thailand.

First dive in Thailand at Kata Beach - Phuket. Three dives in one day with Phuket Dive Tours. We headed to Racha Noi for a refresher course. The dives were easy, with good visibility. You'll find fish, schools of fish, octopus, and even turtles if you're lucky. The boat was large and crowded, but the experience wasn't unpleasant. There were plenty of people on board to look after you, and the meals were good. The diving equipment was excellent. A big thank you to Greg for taking us out on this wonderful day.

I recently did a full-day diving trip exploring the stunning sites around Phi Phi Islands, and Lolo was our incredible instructor/guide. From the moment we set off on the boat, everything was perfectly organized, great equipment, tasty snacks, and crystal-clear safety briefings.
Lolo is an absolute pro: super knowledgeable, patient, and fun! He spotted amazing marine life (turtles, colorful corals, schools of fish, even sharks, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe underwater. His enthusiasm is contagious, and he has a real talent for making the dives relaxed yet exciting.
The Phi Phi underwater world is breathtaking, vibrant reefs and perfect visibility. This was hands-down one of the best dives I've ever done, thanks entirely to Lolo's leadership. If you're in Phi Phi and want a fantastic, stress-free experience, book with Lolo — you won't regret it! Highly recommend! 🐢🌊✨

It was a perfect day. We went diving around Phi Phi with LoLo. Blacktip reef fish and turtles were a highlight, but everything else was great too. Beautiful coral, lots of schools of fish (including barracuda). The food was fantastic. Everything was freshly prepared on board and tasted amazing. All in all, a wonderful day. We set off at 7 a.m. and arrived back at the hotel at 8 p.m.

I had the absolute pleasure of diving with Greg from Phuket Dive Tours, and I highly recommend him and the team more! From the moment we arrived at the pier, Greg took care of every single aspect of our dive experience. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and made sure we were comfortable and safe throughout the entire trip.

What impressed me most was Greg's professionalism and attention to detail. The pre-dive briefing was thorough and informative, covering every aspect of the dive, from safety procedures to what to expect underwater. He explained everything in a clear and concise manner, making sure we felt confident and prepared for the dive.

Greg's expertise and passion for diving shone through in every briefing. He provided valuable insights and information about the marine life, and his enthusiasm was infectious.

What truly impressed me, however, was Greg's exceptional hospitality. He went above and beyond to ensure we were well taken care of, even seeing us off until the cab at the end of the day. His kindness, warmth, and dedication to his students are qualities that make him an outstanding instructor.

If you're looking for a dive center that prioritizes safety, fun, and exceptional service, look no further than Phuket Dive Tours and Greg. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to explore the underwater world.

During our visit to Phuket, we booked two full day dives with Phuket Dive Tours. Our first day was at Koh Racha and it was a lovely day with easy diving. The last dive was the most memorable with huge schools of fish (see photo!). Our second day at Koh Phi Phi with Tomek was very memorable. We were lucky and saw a blacktip shark, huge jellyfish, sea turtles and tons of fish. I am a newly certified diver and Tomek was a great guide, helping me feel confident and comfortable to accomplish a bunch of firsts! Also, their boats are comfortable to ride in, not to mention the food they serve after each dive. Highly recommend!

Some experiences don’t need to impress, they simply stay with you.
This dive was one of those.

Laurent’s calm, elegant leadership matched the rhythm of the water itself. No rush, no display — just a quiet confidence that makes you feel safe without ever asking for attention. The dive sites were equally understated; they didn’t try to speak, because they didn’t have to.

When I surfaced, what remained wasn’t only a beautifully organized dive, but a sense of rare, thoughtful grace. I will definitely come back.

Ottima esperienza! Abbiamo completato con loro la licenza Open Water con una giornata presso la loro piscina e 3 immersioni a Racha Noi (bellissime!!!!) Personale professionale e competente. Ci siamo sentiti sempre seguitai e al sicuro. Il nostro istruttore Davide è stato chiaro in tutte le spiegazioni e ci ha accompagnato con attenzione in tutte le immersioni!
Tutto è stato semplice e le indicazioni che ci hanno dato sono sempre state chiare
(dal pick-up al comportamento in barca).
Apprezzo particolarmente l’attenzione nel
consigliare le immersioni adatte alla
propria esperienza. A differenza di altri centri, che ci hanno detto che potevamo andare ovunque, ci hanno chiaramente detto
dov’è la nostra preparazione non era sufficiente. Questo è per me indice di attenzione per garantire immersioni sempre in sicurezza. BRAVI!

Ottimo centro diving. Abbiamo completato la certificazione Open Water, partendo da Scuda Diver, con sessione di 6h in piscina tra teoria e pratica e poi 3 immersioni a Racha Noi. Organizzazione perfetta e il nostro istruttore, Davide, é stato molto preciso e chiaro nelle spiegazioni rispettando il programma SSI focalizzandosi sulle manovre di emergenza per acquisire maggiore dimestichezza e tranquillità durante le immersioni.
Complimenti! Sicuramente torneremo per altre immersioni con loro.

Yesterday, On 12/12/2025, My partner and I conducted an introductory beach dive at Phuket dive tours in Kata. From the start, our experience was excellent. Our instructor Gan took us through a comprehensive demonstration of the diving equipment followed by a very informative safety briefing. Once the briefing was completed we went to the pool to get familiar with the equipment and diving techniques. After a short break Gan shuttled us to the local Kata beach where we got to experience some fantastic underwater scenery and marine life.

Overall, we found Gan to be very knowledgeable, patient and professional during our experience.
We highly recommend Phuket Dive tours to anyone looking to get a glimpse/insight into diving.Also, thanks to Justin and David for their help.

All the best,

Thanks to him, I had a fantastic day of diving beautiful sites, great guidance, and overall a perfect experience. Highly recommended!

Lam was the best scuba guide I’ve ever had. So nice so genuine and took great care of us. He helped us with everything from equipment to getting on and off the boat to spotting awesome unique sea creatures below. If we come back to Phuket he is the only guide I’d want with me. Be sure to ask for him! #lamisthebest

Professionel place and great guides, and fine size of diving group (4 including the guide) - I was very impressed with their pool set-up.

It seems that all diving centers goes out in big and quite full boats (which I am not that fond of), and our guide today had both an aow trainee and a fun dive at the same time which ment that we had a break looking at some corals my buddy and I, while the trainee did some navigation. This is why I can't give 5 stars, but in general a great experience today

Scuba diving with this team was an absolutely amazing experience. The water was crystal clear, the views were surreal and everything perfectly matched what we were hoping for. What made it even better was how confident and supportive the instructors were. They didn’t just guide us, they actually trusted us enough to let us try things on our own once we were comfortable, which made the whole dive feel even more special.

Big cheers to Lolo, Greg and Lam for their patience, energy and guidance. They made the dive safe, memorable and genuinely exciting. Truly one of the best underwater experiences I’ve had. Highly recommended.

High quality training and booking agency for diving around Phuket. Great value for what you get in terms of overall expertise, service, education, and efficiency of your overall time.

My instructor Johan, who I did my open diver and advanced certification with, deserves unlimited praise for his ability to make direct training digestible and easy to understand but also going above and beyond with safety and helpful things to know from a theoretical perspective and one from the practical of being in on a dive boat + in the water. While another dive lead left me with an unsavory experience, Johan really was the highlight of my service experience with Phuket Dive tours.

After leaving from their dive company, I feel levels beyond other advanced divers in similar experience as myself in terms of total overall safety checks, preparation, ability to adapt and use training intuition, and overall proficiency in buoyancy and control under water.

10/10 would suggest going through this company if you’re in Phuket either for a short time or a longer period of time

I had a wonderful time today with my 12 year old son. He has worn dive gear in a pool back in the UK so I booked an uncertified fun dive for him and certified (I'm PADI trained) for me. After a quick skills demonstration to make it safe for my son, we had two great dives at 12 meters on the Racha islands. The sandy bottom made it ideal for refreshing skills before we explored the reef. The visibility was great despite the end of the monsoon weather. I heard that because there is no current, it is always good there. The boat was a big steel boat with several other firms using it too. The food was delicious and plentiful. There was breakfast on leaving the port, lunch after dive 1, snacks after dive 2 (fruit, chocolate brownie), and more snacks after dive 3 (fruit, pancakes). The boat staff helped us get in and out the water. With my bad back I was worried about walking with kit on but the staff helped make it safe, by me taking my kit off in the water and our instructor handed it to them. Our instructor Laurent, never left our side all day. He made my nervous son feel at ease. We geared up once everyone else had left the boat, when we had quite and calm and could take our time. Laurent is very patient. When my son panicked one time, Laurent calmed him. He made sure we got back on the correct transfer bus at the pier. Despite the poor weather, we had a great day out. Thank you Laurent!

Amazing Open Water Course at Phuket Dive Tours – Karon Beach! 🌊🐠

I just finished my Open Water License here a few days ago, and honestly, it was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had! 💙

My instructor Sila and assistant Celina were both absolutely fantastic. Sila is such a professional, funny, and patient instructor — he speaks English, Thai, and even Chinese, and always made the lessons easy to understand and super enjoyable. He paid attention to every small detail, always made sure we were safe underwater, and helped me overcome my fear step by step. 🤿✨

Celina is also amazing — so kind, caring, and observant. There was even one moment when I almost touched a sea urchin, and she immediately warned me — that’s how attentive she is! 💕

My course included online theory and five dives (I did one extra because I loved it so much!). Everything was well-organized, safe, and fun from start to finish. On the first day, Sila even took us out for a nice meal, which made everyone feel so welcome. 🥰

The price is fair and totally worth it for the quality of teaching and the warm, friendly atmosphere. If you’re looking for a dive center in Phuket, I 100% recommend Phuket Dive Tours – Karon Beach, especially Instructor Sila and Assistant Celina. They truly made my diving journey unforgettable. 🌴💦

An unforgettable experience, my boyfriend came 4 years ago to get certified and comes every year to dive! And has now braught me to get certified in open water with Phuket dive tours. We absolutely love the team at Phuket dive tours and will always be back again for future adventures!! I was a little nervous at first but I was reassured and learned so much during my training, once I was down there it was magical. It's like being on another planet! I will never forget this experience and can't wait to continue exploring what the ocean has to offer! Thanks again To David, Benz and Victor for facilitating this for us! We will see you all again soon

An Absolutely amazing 2 days of diving snd to see my first ever proper shark sighting was just mind-blowing. My dive-master/guide Kann was nothing short of fantastic with her patience to go with my speed, and as she held my foot as she took my right off as it was really tight and painful,

This was my first diving experience outside of Spain, and it was wonderful. I'd love to do it again and return with more time to do more dives with Phuket Dive Tour. The entire boat crew was super attentive at all times, and the food and drinks were fantastic. And I especially want to mention our instructor, Tomas, who showed us the entire ocean floor. He was the best person and diver to have this experience with. I highly recommend it. Carla and Fer will always remember you.

I came to Phuket and wanted to book the tour the night before since the group I was traveling with was going. I experienced issues with my card and I explained this to the person I was talking to on WhatsApp. He then proceeded to call me and when I explained to him I needed some time to contact my bank he started to bombard me about going to the atm and having someone to else I’m traveling with make the payment on my behalf. The suggestion wasn’t a bad one but the manner and tone he used to speak to me was wasn’t. Book with this company but make sure your payments goes through right away or you will be met with an attitude. The staff on our speedboat tour was super gracious but the person communicating on WhatsApp is rough around the edges.

I had an amazing experience at this dive school! My instructor was Victor, and he was truly wonderful. He was incredibly kind, attentive, and patient, which made the whole experience very enjoyable for me.

From the very beginning, I felt a bit nervous about diving, but thanks to Victor’s clear explanations and his positive attitude, I quickly gained confidence. He explained everything in detail, always with a smile, and it’s clear that he is passionate about what he does.

I completed my Open Water 18m course and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. It was absolutely incredible, and I’m so grateful to Victor for making it so special. Highly recommend!

I had an excellent experience learning to scuba dive with instructor Lam. His knowledge of diving techniques and safety protocols is exceptional, and he has a natural ability to explain complex concepts in a way that's easy to understand.

Lam was incredibly patient throughout the entire course, taking time to ensure I was comfortable with each skill before moving on to the next. His calm and encouraging demeanor helped build my confidence both in the pool and during open water dives. Safety was clearly his top priority - he thoroughly explained all procedures and was always vigilant during our dives.

What impressed me most was Lam's passion for diving and his ability to share that enthusiasm with his students. He made the learning experience enjoyable while maintaining high standards. I would highly recommend Lam to anyone looking to start their diving journey or advance their skills.

Thank you, Lam, for being such a dedicated and professional instructor!

I did the Advanced Diver with them and it was a pleasure. I had Victor as my instructor and I was very surprised by all the training, preparation and experience he has. It is also clear that he is passionate about diving and he explains all the details of this activity, even more than you need for the qualification. Without a second's hesitation I would ask for him if you really want to learn to dive.

My instructor/divemaster did not show up last minute. So another instructor stepped in instead who didn't tell us anything about the interesting wildlife in the area to look out for and also didn't help with spotting cool wildlife during the dive (which is one of my favorite parts of diving). I don't know if the original instructor would have been better but the whole point of going with a reputed company is you want their specific divemasters since the whole experience depends on them :(

Great diving experience with instructor Lem

Alejandro Perez

11 months ago

We booked Phuket Dive Tours for two dives, and Lem was our instructor. He was always attentive to us in the water and made sure everything was running smoothly, as it was my second dive after many years and my partner's fourth.
The initial explanation was adequate and gave us the information we needed to dive safely and with complete confidence.
Perhaps we missed a little more information during the boat ride, as other instructors explained to other friends what fish they would see and where they would dive.
On the other hand, the dive site was incredible. Coral reefs teemed with life during the two dives we made, at two different points on the farthest island of Racha.
Since we didn't do a third dive, we had an hour to snorkel at another spectacular spot while others snorkeled. All of this was done with the equipment provided by the company.
Breakfast, lunch, and snacks were great and helped us replenish our energy, as was the fruit and drinks available.
Finally, we should mention that we were charged extra for the photos and videos taken by the instructor, which were well worth it, as Lem was always available to film us and the various animals we saw.
We would definitely recommend this company to anyone who wants to dive from Phuket. They pick you up from your hotel and drop you off at the end of the day.

Quality diving for a very reasonable price.
I’ve compared a handful of different dive centres and found that most of them offer the same service for a higher price. Only Love Diving (Patong) had a competitive price, but it didn’t work out for us timing-wise.

1. Gear looked good and worked well without problems.
2. Very decent food and in abundance.
3. Straightforward booking and payment.
4. Good planning and organising of van taxi service and of the activities.
5. Large, safe boat with all the necessary facilities for comfort and for the activities.
6. Our dive instructor Lam/Lem was calm and accommodating. He paddled at a pace that we could follow and he listened to us when we had trouble to dive deeper (high sinus pressure and trouble clearing an ear). He helped spot many creatures, including a tiny nudibranch.
7. It’s great that they offer the Phi Phi and Racha dives every day (low season).
8. It was reassuring to know that they guarantee a 100% refund in case the weather would prevent the trip from happening (low season).
9. Quick response via WhatsApp.

During our ocean dives, we were also accompanied by Dive Master P’Lam (who assisted Tomasz), who also took great care of us and took amazing pictures! Never felt unsafe and alone during the whole course.

Highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours and going with Tomasz and P’lam if youre looking for great instructors 🤙

I recently completed a PADI certification course with Victor, and I can confidently say it was an unforgettable experience. Over the three days, not only did I have a lot of fun, but I also received great instructive training that went beyond just scuba diving.

Victor has a unique teaching style; he dives deep (pun intended!) into the science behind diving. He explained concepts related to earth, motion sickness, and the mechanics of breathing in a way that made everything clear and engaging. His ability to explain "the why of the why" truly sets him apart as an instructor. I could feel his passion on what he does and teach with patience as I am not always the most disciplined one 🤣

Before starting the course, I was quite nervous about diving deep in the ocean again but excited . In fact it was only my second time diving in open water after Ishigaki, and that first experience left me feeling a bit out of control ( my hand hit the corail and i felt bad about it as i didn’t know how to breath properly) . However, Victor's guidance helped me overcome my fears every day bit by bit . By the end of the course, I felt much more confident in my abilities to float, breathe properly, and flow with the water—whether my lungs were full or empty.

Overall, I highly recommend Victor’s PADI course to anyone looking to learn scuba diving. His expertise, patience, diligence and enthusiasm made all the difference in my experience!

I will edit a video soon about the whole experience & I will post it whenever it is ready on my IG : Kimmydo144 .

Grateful for this experience in Phuket ♥️

It was a wonderful experience diving with Johan today. Extremely diligent, patient and understanding, he was very helpful in making me comfortable before going in deep. The introductory session, with tips on what to do and what not to, was concise and the instructions and on hand experience in water later, really helped. I had a little mishap the last time I dived, but Johan just navigated me through that fear and just navigated me brilliantly. Special mention to his photographing skills, we had a lot of fun diving and carried back plenty of memories. Two thumbs up!

I went diving with Thomas and had an amazing experience. He clearly knew what he was doing and took the time to explain everything in a calm and clear way. His knowledge of marine life was impressive, and he showed genuine respect for all sea creatures. I felt like a safe and well-guided dive.
10/10 – I would absolutely love to dive with him again!

I had a wonderful diving trail experience with Johan!!! I never dived before but I came with my son that knows to dive already and he wanted me to try it. So we asked Johan if it is OK if I’ll try. He was very gentle and said that if I decide to do so it’s possible and everything will be according to my needs and capabilities.He thought me everything really slowly and clear and made sour I understood everything before moving on. He promised me to be with me all the dividing time and to handle all the stuff I am not capable to do wet. I had an amazing diving experience, I saw very nice ocean live under the water and had a very very enjoyable diving experience. I truly recommend the company and especially Jhon as a diving constructor!!

If you are at an intermediate or advanced level, fine. Although I obtained the Open Water Padi, from the beginning I indicated that I did not have much experience, which I also indicated to the instructor in charge (Nim). I chose this center because of the great comments that exist and that's right, it was one of the best experiences from what I saw in the sea and part of learning that of the three dives one was better than the other and I finally had orientation (rude). The issue was the rude and bad-tempered treatment... even given my inexperience I was left suspended in the sea making signs that something was wrong, which was almost at the end (of which also when I almost got out of the sea obviously in panic, the instructor never came up to help me. Then in a mocking tone she even told me to make the straight hand sign to show that something was wrong, in fact she was making fun I think she told me what was the problem with me if I really dived, where did I get my certification, etc etc...it's okay something like that can train you and so I took it calmly but deep down I knew it wasn't the right treatment) at all times I was polite I even bought her photos and as I mentioned the next two dives went very well, she even congratulated me (if I do something like that in a sea like Phuket it's obvious that I'm not trying to know anything), because the instructor calmed down later with her bad mood and then she calmly explained the techniques to me which I even appreciate. But I'm visiting, I'm a tourist, I'm learning and I hope to improve every time, but talking with family members and even the other advanced diver who went down with us said "she shouldn't talk to you that way, she's being very hateful to you", so for the tour guides or others who evaluate to take into account what they offer you...it wasn't a course, I didn't pay for them to be rude or to even help me when I have problems in the water, making me more panicked,
...I keep going and that's why I consider that it was still a great experience because of what I did my part and for some reason I entered three times and I can prove it with the photos and videos, and again I would recommend, based on what I read, other instructors for people who are more novice... That's why my Intermediate rating...

In terms of wildlife, of course, it cannot be compared with the Maldives and Egypt, but, in any case, there is something to see.

We had a whole-day 3-dive tour (Racha Yai+Racha Noi islands), which me (first timer) and my wife (advanced license) greatly enjoyed.
First of all, big thanks to our instructor Emily. She has been attentive, polite, humorous, made serious effort to make our experience great&accomodate our wishes. Probably could've devoted the whole text limit to her, but I have some more nice things to mention.
My 3rd dive was with Lem (sorry if it's Lam, I'm not sure) he's been great, he took so many photos underwater and monitored our group effortlessly.
The boat (Freedom dolphin) was not crowded at that day as it seemed to me. Everyone got space to rest, eat, get ready for diving. But it's all good until you hit someone with a weight belt, so it's necessary that you check your surroundings on the lower deck.
The staff has helped me and others to gear up. The gear was IMO ok and objectively ready in time. The ship was clean. We had enough anti-nausea meds and water (both drinking and technical). The food was fine but spicy.
Shuttle bus was on time and air-conditioned.
The only thing that might've ruined our mood was that we had some miscommunication with the sales manager in the office. Despite that I had a suspicion that geographic (distances between sites and depth: some routes are for the licensed divers, some may be explored without one, Racha is the easy one in the south, Shark Point/King Cruiser route is the harder one in the east) and time limitations made so that most companies here have like 2-3 whole day tours and there's not much freedom in picking the exact dive sites, I asked the salesperson in two different ways whether me and my wife could have 1 separate dive - she goes to the King Cruiser Wreck (license needed) while I go elsewhere later. Turns out, that's not an option, but our instructor Emily made it possible for my wife to have a fun dive. Big thanks to Emily!
Overall, wonderful experience, strongly recommend.

Right from the beginning of approaching them the conversation has been very friendly and descriptive enough. David from the main office helped us with the details and the planning, charting and pickup was very good. The boat is well organized and toilets are clean, we being beginners Lam and Jack have explained everything very well and had briefed us well before each dive and have us tips for breathing and bouyancy. We are looking forward to come back and dive with Phuket dive tours and thank you for the entire team for all the arrangements.

Sure! I recently completed my Advanced Open Water certification with Victor, and I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor! From start to finish, Victor made the entire experience in Thailand absolutely unforgettable.

His professionalism, patience, and deep knowledge of diving were evident in every dive. Whether we were navigating wrecks, mastering buoyancy, or going deep, he always made sure I felt confident and safe while still pushing me to improve. His enthusiasm for the underwater world is truly contagious, making every dive not just a lesson but an adventure.

Beyond his expertise, Victor is just an all-around great person—fun, supportive, and always ready to share fascinating insights about marine life and dive techniques. If you’re looking for an instructor who genuinely cares about your progress and makes every dive an amazing experience, Victor is the one to go with!

Highly recommended for anyone looking to advance their diving skills while having an incredible time underwater!

My wife and I had a wonderful first dive here with KAN, our instructor. She did not hurry us into it as we were afraid might be the case. She took the time to slowly get us acquainted with everything we'd need for the dive. Unfortunately the corals in the beach dive are fewer than we'd hoped, but nevertheless I would recommend this place to anyone looking for options for their first dive.

David and Benz were really helpful too. They took the time to explain everything and answer every one of the hundreds of questions we had!

The organization of the dive center was also optimal!
It was a very nice experience and absolutely recommended!

The trip itself includes a boat trip to 3 different diving areas where one can see most of Thailand’s beautiful fishes, corals and other species. The food was great, and they even served pancakes at the end of the day!

I will therefore recommend this trip to anyone who wants to try scuba diving in Thailand.

I was also by myself on the boat and he came and sat with me often!

I want to express my heartfelt thanks to the entire team at Phuket Dive Tours for two incredible days spent completing the Wreck Diver course. A special shoutout to my amazing instructor, Alla, who made this adventure truly unforgettable.

During the course, I discovered that wrecks aren’t just sunken ships but also include other artificial structures submerged by humans, such as cubes, fish cages, and artificial reefs. We practiced measuring distances between objects, gauging their sizes in fin kicks, tying lines, and working with a reel.

The highlight of the course was the dive at King Cruiser, where we had the thrilling experience of entering and exploring the wreck in complete darkness, navigating with flashlights and focusing on buoyancy control. We also captured some stunning photos and videos—vivid, colorful, and simply breathtaking.

During our dives, we encountered a variety of marine life, including small sharks, moray eels, sea urchins, groupers, a tiny turtle, and many other fascinating creatures of the local fauna and flora.

I can’t wait for another opportunity to dive with this fantastic dive center.

Thank you, Phuket Dive Tours, for the emotions, experiences, and memories!

Had a great time on the diving trip organised by this dive shop. They picked me up from my hotel in Patong and took me to the pier in Phuket.

I was paired with my dive guide, Mr. Ohm, who turned out to be a great guide. He made sure we stayed safe, spotted some cool marine life that I totally missed (as I usually do) and took some nice snaps of me which I could later copy from his camera (for a fee but it was worth it). He was also looking after my rented gear in the somewhat chaotic environment of the chartered dive boat, and he made sure I didn't get lost during disembarking.

The only suggestion I would have is for Mr Ohm to check what resolution the customer would like the videos taken - I believe 4k or at least Full HD is more appropriate than 720p these days, but it was my fault for not asking about that before diving.

Overall, a very good experience and nice, relaxing dives with nice views under the expert supervision of Mr Ohm. Thank you!

Egor brought us around Racha Noi/Yai on 3 dives. We were mixed ability divers but he was able to accommodate us both and were able to see lots of different fish and sites around both islands. Would recommend both Igor and Phuket Dive Tours, we plan to come back to do our certification here

Amazing Dive Experience with Lam!

I had an unforgettable day diving with Lam on the Phi Phi 3 Dive Tour. He’s an incredible instructor – calm, professional, and so passionate about the underwater world. Lam made me feel completely at ease, tailored the dives to my experience, and pointed out amazing marine life I would’ve missed.

The dive sites were stunning, and Lam’s enthusiasm made the day even more special. If you’re diving in Phi Phi, ask for Lam – you won’t regret it!

His friendly and approachable nature put me at ease, and his professionalism ensured everything went smoothly. The boat trip was great, and the staff overall were amazing—attentive, helpful, and welcoming. They provided a pick-up service and food. Victor and the team truly made this a memorable experience.

I attempted diving for the first time last weekend with Phuket Dive Tours, and it was the highlight of my holiday. I really lucked out with my instructor, Timothy – he was patient, professional, encouraging, and many other synonyms one would use to describe a great teacher. He gave very clear and concise instructions that were easy to follow(but more importantly, he made it fun!)

I have expressed having safety concerns, given this is my first time and I am entirely new to scuba equipment and language. Timothy assured me repeatedly, not just with words but with his vast experience and knowledge of the field. As promised, I am safe and in one piece, writing this 5-star review about my wonderful experience. Now, I can’t wait to go back for seconds!

If you’re considering taking the plunge, make the most of your experience with Phuket Dive Tours. You won’t regret it!

My husband and I had the best time with Phuket Dive Tours Patong! We did two full days of diving including Racha Noi and the Phi Phi 3 Dive Day Trips. We did a refresher as part of the Racha Noi trip as it had been a while since our last dives.
The diving was amazing, and both dive guides were fantastic ensuring that we were all set with safety, equipment (we rented equipment too), and anything else we needed. We saw coral, fish, turtles, and octopus, sharks, and so many amazing things (see the photos)!
Logistics were easy, David answered all my questions via Whatsapp and booking was easy online. We stopped by the shop day before and were fit with all our gear then (simpler than on the boat). The pickup from the hotel was easy and we were kept updated via Whatsapp.
The food (breakfast, snacks, drinks, lunch, snacks) on the boat was delicious and they had everything you needed. The dive groups are small which is lovely it was the two of us with the guide for the Racha Noi trip, and one other couple and the guide at Phi Phi.
As with all the boat trips we've been on, it's controlled chaos getting off the boat and keep in mind that it's 50-ish people diving so it's often a hurry-up and wait situation. Once in the water, though, it's so worth it. Shout out to Kan our guide at Phi Phi, she was amazing!!! Go, you'll love it!!

Tim managed to make this course relaxing and fun - even when one of the dive sites got a little busy. We'd love to come back

She took us all around and it is really awesome that this company follows you with a GoPro camera and didn’t charged a ton of money for only one photo. We paid next to nothing for tons and tons of amazing videos and photos ! Totally awesome and would absolutely book with them again! Ask for Kan. She was awesome :)

Tim was great, both at teaching us and being patient with us while under the water. I truly recommend him and his team for your certification or a dive in Phuket and islands nearby. It was an amazing experience that we'll remember forever! Cheers to Tim and Phuket Dive Tours!

Did an open diving course with my friend under Tim Mayor.

The course was smooth and Tim was good at getting us to learn the skills fast in a calm environment.

We visited banana bay, manta bay at racha noi and bay 1 at racha yai.

We booked the course for 6 dives and completed all skills by the 2nd dive.

However I was a little sad because both days we went to the same exact spots.
Furthermore at bay1 there was nothing much, not many corals just one ship wreck and structures for helping corals to grow.

This was a little sad to me as this was not communicated when I booked the dives.

The best spot was manta bay but Tim was swimming very quickly everywhere I did not have the time to really stop and observe the marine lift within the corals.

The next thing that upset me was the photos that Tim took to sell us. He was going to sell us the photos for 3K THB and I should have checked the photos before agreeing because they were not good.

Furthermore he wanted cash only and we didn’t have enough cash and it was our last night, and we didn’t have a scooter. It’s difficult to get around Phuket without a scooter and the grabs and tuk tuks are expensive.

I asked the dive centre if there was non cash payment and they cared enough to ask me how much I was paying for the photos and negotiated with Tim to lower it down to 2K THB. And Tim agreed to let me pay via bank transfer which was much easier.

I asked my friend who has gone diving before and she said that her dive masters gave her photos for free.

Honestly the whole trip was fine until this moment where I felt that we paid a lot more than what the photos were worth.

Thinking back I also felt frustrated that I could not enjoy the dive as I wanted to at my own pace even after clearing all the skills because he kept moving fast.

The dive centre did clarify that photos are not part of the service. As a new diver I would not have known what the common practice was.

So in short, good centre to get ur dive license but for the fun dives, not so great.

I recently completed my Advanced Open Water course at Phuket Dive Tours and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. David was incredibly organized and professional, with quick response times that made booking and planning easy. From my first inquiry, David ensured everything was straightforward and stress-free, guiding me through the setup with clear communication and a flexible, no-fuss approach.

The highlight, though, was my instructor, Victor. From start to finish, Victor made the course both educational and exciting. His professionalism, expertise and him simply beeing a really cool guy, truly set him apart.

Diving with Phuket Dive tours was really great.

Thanks for the great experience.

Me and my friend got open water diving license from here with our diving instructor Tim. It was truly a wonderful experience, the ocean was warm and crystal clear, although around the Racha Noi and Racha Yai island there is no dense coral area or massive biodiversity, it’s good for beginners to learn and practice. Our instructor Mr Timothy Mayor (Tim) is an experienced diver, very responsible and reliable underwater. During our training session, he allowed us to make mistakes but always made sure that we have understood the key points. He really took good care of us and made sure that we are safe while also having fun, just like ‘hanging out’ with a humorous and cool uncle. Overall, thanks for providing us a nice and unforgettable experience!

3 fantastic dives for me and my Son. Tim, our English speaking instructor, was fantastic. A gifted, funny teacher who had us safe, relaxed, and gliding along in no time at all. With dives of 48 min+ with his keen instruction, it makes this an instructor suitable for all skill levels for improving or just a fantastic safe and fun day out. 3 very high quality meals and snacks provided. Pickup and drop of all included. To top it off he tirelessly took photo and videos of us and some of the wildlife; he's also a gifted photographer.
I can't recommend this life experience enough...it will be one of those days you will bring into many conversations in the future. Book Now 5*

I took a Scuba diver two days course with instructor Timothy Mayor at Phuket Diving tours. Previously I had an unsuccessful attempt when having a diving tour in Turkey more than 10 years ago . That time I felt very uncomfortable in water and thought that this fun is probably not for me but after training with Timothy I felt much more confidence, learned all the basic techniques and was able to get an SSI
certification. Very much recommended for those who want to learn to dive and reveal the underwater world beauty for yourself!

Each dive was incredible, with breathtaking seabeds. We were lucky enough to have wonderful visibility, explore a wreck and discover countless underwater species.

Victor is an exceptional instructor, combining professionalism and passion for diving. His teaching techniques are clear and effective, which allowed me to progress quickly and with complete confidence.

In addition, his sense of humor and joy of life make each dive even more enjoyable.

I couldn't have asked for a better instructor. Thank you, Victor, for this unforgettable experience, and see you soon, I hope!

I signed up for the 3 days + 6 dives to get an official Open Water Diving Lisence, and it truly deserves 5 stars.

Price: Covers your training, rental gear, taxi to and from the dives, as well as food for on the dives.

Service: The entire time our instructor, Timothy Mayor, was very patient and understanding. He took enough time to explain in detail everything we needed to know in order to dive and made it a fun, safe, and rewarding experience.

Time: The first day was training only, but I hardly recognized the time pass. It was quick, efficient, and fun. The next 2 days were all Diving, which was even better.

Aesthetics: The scenery for the dives was beautiful. Each island and Diving spot contributed its own splendor, and by itself was worth the money.

If you are looking to get your Diving lisence, this is definitely a good choice.

When my 11 and 13 year old sons wanted to try out scuba diving, I made it a point to research options with safety as the top priority, but I also wanted to make the experience fun and educational. This would hopefully inspire them to continue recreational diving and gain even more confidence in the water which they already love. Phuket Dive Tours has exceeded my expectations and I have no qualms about recommending them or returning to them next time we are in Phuket. We went for the scuba diving certification package instead of the full open water diving certification because of our sons’ ages and time constraints. Beto was assigned to us and he was an excellent instructor. He was very good with his young charges and at all times had their safety as his top concern. I can tell he takes pride in his integrity and credibility as an instructor and genuinely wanted his charges to properly learn diving and enjoy the water which seems to his beloved second home, a conclusion I came to from our brief interaction.

My best diving experience in Thailand. During our trip, Me and my son used the services of several dive shops in Krabi, Phi Phi and Phuket. And diving with Phuket Dive Tours was the most organized, well prepared and fun dive experience we had.
The guys are professional from the easy ordering online process to a very comfortable boat and good quality leasing diving gear. The experience continued with Somkid the dive master who did a good gob preparing us before the dive, and during the dive he made sure we will not miss a thing and even took photos and videos of us during the dive (paid separately but worth every baht). My son had his best dive in his life so far and I got the memories from it. Recommended!

I spent 2 days with these guys and it was awesome. Day 1 in the pool for refresher with Kann and it was great because you learnt a good platform of knowledge but they are also serious about safety.

Day 2 was a 3 dive tour and it was great. From the starting dives to the more challenging dive at the end. You learn alot.

I must recommend at least the refresher or intro courses for diving. Even though I had dived a while ago, you forget so much and that can dangerous on your return. These people care, that is most important.

Tim is probably the most patient man I have met, understanding and never forgets you are in a high stress situation. If you are not at least a little considerate of what you are doing then don't dive. You put more than yourself in danger. Tim was awesome the whole day. Food was great and the crew fantastic.

I will be back to do my 2 days training at some point. Because these guys made learning diving fun, even if I still get a bit anxious about the whole thing.

One lat word, Benz is great and will guide you through the tour options. Great organizer.

I recently completed my open water diving course with Phuket Dive Tours and had an outstanding experience. From the beginning, David was incredibly helpful in answering all my questions leading up to the deposit. Given that it was monsoon season, I was hesitant to book the course, but David assured me that the shop was flexible in rescheduling dates if conditions were deemed unsafe. This flexibility was also extended to our dive package—we initially purchased a 5-dive course but were given the option to upgrade to 6 dives on the boat itself depending on the weather. Thankfully, the weather turned out to be perfect for all three days we were there and we upgraded our package to enjoy more marine life and ship wreck exploration.

A special shoutout to Tim and our Thai lady dive master (whose name I unfortunately forgot), both of whom were amazingly knowledgeable and patient. They closely observed us in the water and provided constructive feedback on any issues we faced. Thanks to their guidance, I now feel confident diving, with six dives logged and an eagerness for all the future fun dives to come.

Thank you, Phuket Dive Tours, for an incredibly fun and professional crew. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to learn or advance their diving skills!

Improvement suggestions:

1. prescription goggle options - when i went, they mentioned they had -5 goggles but they only had up to -4. Would suggest to hold stock if possible
2. photos - the group I was learning with was a group of 5, so the photos were taken rather hastily, resulting in limited photos of myself. It didn’t felt like value to be charged 1500 bhat for a few photos of myself, thus I opted out of it. Fortunately I brought a GOPRO and Tim was helpful in advising me on how to use it on my last fun dive. I would have loved to having a few free photos for us to post this review with.

I recently completed a basic dive course with Phuket Dive Tours, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. My instructor, Tim, was outstanding. His patience and high motivation made the learning process enjoyable and stress-free. Tim's passion for diving and dedication to his students are truly commendable. I felt safe, well-prepared, and thoroughly enjoyed every dive. I highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours to anyone looking to start or continue their diving journey. Thank you, Tim, for an unforgettable experience!

I just finished my SSI open water certification with PDT and could not be happier with the experience! Our instructor Tim was a huge part of this experience being one of the highlights of ny trip to Thailand.

Tim was extremely knowledgeable and kept the spirit up while delivering high quality formation both in the pool and in the open water. He took enough time to help individually with all the skills, and in my case he was truly understandable and supportive, making sure I could master the diving skills and I could had a great time in the water.

Highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours for anyone who wants to try for the first time Scuba diving and be amazed by the underwater world in Phuket!!

I went diving last week with Phuket Dive Tours. I booked last minute and everything went just so smoothly. I could book online and after that they took care of everything. From the first pick up to the drop off at the end. Very professional Staff (Timothy was my instructor) and of course last but not least the beautiful dive sites..! Really all you can wish for when going diving in Thailand.

Great day with brilliant crew and instructors. We enjoyed a day out with Phuket Dive Tours. I tried scuba for first time and instructor was brilliant
Icing on cake was that my wife was given very friendly coaching and managed snorkeling and she loved it. I highly recommend them. Really good with the catamaran and not crowded.
See you next year

We are a family of 4, my wife and I have our Padi licenses and our two sons needed theirs. The school put us in the hands of Victor, French ex special forces in the French army. He speaks fluent English, is as patient as you could ever need and even though he is young, he as more experience than most instructors I have been diving with. Great experience, support for every level of knowledge and really well organized. Thanks!!!

There are many dive shop options in Phuket and I highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours over the rest! I was matched with a FANTASTIC Dive Instructor for my Advanced Open Water Certification. Victor G. was very experienced and such a great teacher. We practiced all skills on every dive, not to just check a box on the list but so I could build confidence in the skills. Victor made the learning material and dives interesting and fun! I had such an amazing experience with Phuket Dive Tours! The boats they arranged for us to be on were fantastic, there was a real Breakfast (not just fruit and coffee), A great Lunch and Snacks. There was always food waiting for us after every dive and the crew were kind and very helpful before, during, and after the dives. Phuket Dives Tours gave me a great experience and I will definitely be coming back to dive with them and Victor. Cheers!

Many thanks to Phuket Dive Tours Kata Beach, M/V Freedom Dolphin crew, and especially to Lem who was my guide and dive partner supreme! I went on a 3 dive trip with the most professional group of divers that one could ever ask for. The food was delicious, the crew very professional and attentive and Lem was so helpful as well as an experienced diver/guide. The whole day was a 5 Star experience. Ship wrecks, coral reefs, tons of beautiful fish, snake eels, moral eels, sea cucumber and the list goes on. I felt like a VIP all day. I'm sure everyone else did too. What an awesome experience.

And of course Iam super thankful to my diving instructor VICTOR!🙏. He's so friendly, organised and knowledgeable person. He thought me everything that I need to know in diving, gave me a lot of information and training about safety. Not to mention he's patience towards me because personally I don't know how to swim 😂haha, and there are hard times for me to equalise but he's really very helpful and I'm sure to everyone who will have the opportunity to be his diving instructor/buddy😊. Thank you so much Victor, I really had a great time. Iam now a good little diver. Yes I don't know how to swim that's why I'm scared of open water but you made me conquer my fears, yippee!!!, thanks a lot for your help🙏.

Huge shoutout to Phuket Dive Tours for an incredible private dive experience near Phuket! My guide, Victor, a meticulous French fellow with a cool military background, made the whole trip top-notch.

Victor impressed me with thorough briefings on each dive site and a safety refresher that instilled confidence, even for a recent diver like me. Between dives, his meticulous equipment checks and clear communication kept me calm despite strong currents. But Victor's not just a safety pro! His friendly personality and great conversation made the boat ride enjoyable too.

Highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours and Victor for anyone seeking a fantastic dive experience near Phuket!

During my trip, my dive computer (activity watch style) decided to go into dive mode during the flight. I spoke to David via watsapp, late in the evening, to try and get hold of one for the following days' diving. Not only did he respond imidelty, he gave me advice on how I could get it up and running again. The following day, he met me prior to getting on the boat with a working dive computer that was clear of previous days' diving.

The diving itself was pretty decent, and the guides were professional. It was a good 2 days diving (6 dives).

I will book up with Phuket dive tours again next time a visit for the customer service alone.

Great dive center. I've been wanting to try diving for a long time, and after visiting Phuket and researching my options, I decided to take the SSI Open Water Diver course. It was a great decision, because, unlike the usual fun dives, the course allows you to learn the necessary theoretical base, as well as smoothly build up your practical diving skills. In addition, the obtained certificate will help you with diving in other places all around the world.

I would also like to thank my instructor Jonathan Parr. He explained both the theory and the practical part of the exercises in a very accessible way. John was very friendly and approachable. He broke up our sessions so that I could learn new information and skills at a comfortable pace. I gained a lot of useful knowledge from him and overall, I couldn't have wished for a better teacher.

Also, John is excellent underwater photographer, the photos from our last diving turned out to be really great!

I planned to take Advanced OWD, but the timing didn’t work out. Booked a diving tour to Phi Phi. Since the last dive was a year ago, I took a refresher course in the pool with instructor Kan. She explained everything perfectly and showed me that I had some gaps in my neutral buoyancy skills, and Kan taught me how to act in just a few minutes. Victor was the instructor for the tour. Very positive and experienced, supportive. The three dives went great. Victor took many wonderful photographs. I am grateful to both instructors and the dive center for their professionalism and high quality of work! Next time I will allocate enough time to complete the course and dive at other sites, including King Cruiser.

I've been wanting to scuba dive in Thailand for a long time, and I'm glad I finally did. I made two dives at Racha Noi and one at Racha Yai. The water was clear and warm, and full of colorful fish and coral.

Dive master Tim has logged thousands of dives, and he knows what he's doing. He kept us safe, showed us around, and pointed out a lot of things I would have missed, like the moray eel hiding in the rock crevice.

The last dive was a wreck dive, a sunken ship probably a few hundred feet long. It was a real thrill diving around that.

If you're thinking about doing a dive with Phuket Dive Tours, I would highly recommend it. You'll be glad you did.

We booked the Deep Dive Specialty and had Jon as an instructor. Jon was/is highly professional and we felt 100% safe at all times. The atmosphere on the boat was also very pleasant for day trip boats and the food was good too.
I can't say anything about the equipment because we have our own equipment. However, the tanks were in good condition and were always sufficiently filled.
The dive sites, we were Racha Noi and Racha Yai, were from ok to good.
We had a lot of fun on the course and would book with Phuket Dive Tours again at any time. Especially with Jon as an instructor!
Thanks a lot Jon 🙏🏼
Therefore 5 stars for the diving center 👌🏽

Yesterday we went diving. Incredible experience! Everything is superbly organized. I would especially like to mention the instructor Victor. It was my first time diving, but everything went very comfortably. The day before the diving, Victor conducted a training session in the pool, where he answered all the questions and showed how to dive correctly, how not to panic and how to move correctly underwater. The boat took us to the islands of Racha and Racha Yai, there were three dives and each time different emotions and impressions. Thanks to Victor and the whole team, I will definitely come back again!

Loved my dive trip with Phuket Dive Tours! I had Mr Lem as a dive master for the day and I really liked him. He was super professional, very friendly and good to spot things into the water. The experience on the boat was also very nice! Very good breakfast and lunch (buffet style) and many comfortable places to relax on the boat!

Would definitely recommend!

Shout-out to Victor 🙏 We did an Advanced Open Water Course + an Open Water Diver Course with him and it was one of the best things during our trip through SEA.

I'm not the best swimmer and I'm afraid of the open ocean. But from start till end I felt safe and comfortable. He taught us the skills to confidently navigate through water and gave us room to explore the ocean Life independently. There was no micro managing.

Thank you very much, Victor. It was a pleasure to have you as our instructor. We wish you the best.

Also thanks to the dive center who was very professional and accommodating (we were last minute participants).

Note: Victor took also those pictures and they came out great 👍

We did our Advanced Adventurer and Nitrox certification with Scuba Dive Tours. Even though almost everything was fully booked, Benz was still able to accommodate us on the boats for all 5 dives.

Equipment was provided and was in great condition.

Our dive instructor Victor was brilliant. He is very experienced ! and has an excellent and very personable way of conveying the training content. He answered all questions at all times. An absolute recommendation!!!!

The boat tours (1 x catamaran, 1 x large diving boat) were very well organized. Good crew and good food.

Enrolled in a diving course with Timothy Mayor (Tim) at Phuket Dive Tours. Grateful they accommodated my Sunday request instead of the usual Monday start. 🙏

The process: book your schedule online via their website > complete the course online via SSI app (note to complete it before your Day 1) > Day 1 at the pool, day 2 beach dives, and the last day, 2 boat dives resulting in my certificate.

Impressed, recommended it to a friend who's now getting certified too. Planning more dives and advanced classes. Big thanks to Tim and the entire Phuket Dive Tours team. Can't wait to be back for more underwater adventures! 🌊🤿

The dive day itself was one of the best we’ve had, very organised, very professional and safe throughout. Tim, our instructor was excellent and gave us lots of useful little tips that improved our diving even though we weren’t completing any course. The dives were great too, saw lots of sharks, seahorses and huge shoals of fish. Already organising our next visit to dive here.

We got to the boat and meet up with our instructor Jon. Jon was such an amazing instructor! He took us under his wings and showed us everything we needed to know. Great service all the way around. Super cool trips with nice views👏🏻 When we were on the boat there was food, drinks and snacks all day.
Again, big thanks to Jon and the rest of the crew for such an amazing experience and we can highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours.🤿🤩👌🏼

It was really well organised, the dedicated pool is right near the dive shop in kata beach and the equipment was in really good order. Most of all it was fun! A big shout out to our dive instructor Jon Parr. Very competent and experienced, Jon went the extra mile by bringing his own camera to our ocean dives which has given us precious photos of our first dives!! He also took the time to point out some of the interesting things to see like moray eels and razor fish. I highly recommend this experience.

I booked two tours with them, the first was a day dive trip (on a different review) and the three day two nights Similan island live aboard.

I was nervous booking the trip since I had not dove in a year and have only and open water, but after reaching out to David, he was able to talk with me about all the different options and helped me pick the best option for me.

The only thing I regret is not being able to stay for longer!!

Travel was long, pick up from hotel to speed boat to the main ship took about 2 hours, but I had no issues with drivers finding me and my hotel as well as transferring my things to the main boat.

I was paired with a girl that was close in age, similar dive experience and same language. The staff was so kind and attentive. The food is AMAZING. The diving is like a well oiled machine, you come in and quickly learn the day to day routine.

My dive guide was Tour, a young local diver, who has over 10 years experience, which was east to see as we where diving. He was able to take us around the reef helping us find the animals we wanted to see (as available, obviously nothing is guaranteed) and adapted the path we took to give us more opportunities to do swim throughs (kinda like tunnels).

Jon was the point person on the ship, who was also knowledgeable, friendly and easy to talk with.

I am so sad that I left after only three days. And will definitely be back again!

5 Stars, 6 if I could
I did 3 fundives on a full day Tour with Jon and really enjoyed every Moment of it. He was a great instructor and did his best to lead three wounderful dives and created moments to remember. We went to different spots on Banana Bay and to two Wracks at Racha Yai and felt the loads of Jon's Experience in diving there. He knew the best spots amd I felt safe and comfortable the whole time.
Jon also taught some nice practical things and methods to grow as a Diver.
Not only the dives itself made the day become an awesome experience, its also the atmosphere on the boat and the little things that matter.
I felt welcome the moment I walked into the office and booked my Dives with Salma.
In the morning I was picked up on time at my Hotel and was taken to the pier and welcomed there.
The team was really nice and the food on the boat was delicious.
Each buffet (breakfast, lunch, fruits, snacks) had a good variety to choose from and it was plenty.

Really enjoyed the trip, thanks to Jon and the Team of Phuket Dive Tours.

I took 2 consecutive 3-dive day tours with Phuket drivers. Both were absolutely fabulous. On the first tour, my instructor Maa did a great job of meticulously going through a refresh procedure, as I hadn't dived in the past 10years. Then we had a great time fun diving in the Ratcha's. Maa was great at pointing out interesting things to see underwater.
The next day was a tour to Phi Phi and shark point. Alla, my instructor, was great at leading the way and taking care of every detail of the dive. Alla made sure to go below first to get me a close up with a Leopard shark, before the "herd" joined from above and scared him away. The Phi Phi dives were absolutely amazing. Plenty of colours and great sea life to experience.
The ships were great, serving food and fresh fruit before and between dives. Just what you need after surfacing hungry. The entire staff was very helpful in managing the equipment and helping out wherever needed.
I strongly recommend diving with Phuket divers... can't wait to come back to Phuket for seconds...

Our snorkeling excursion on the PowerCat catamaran was amazing! Kan, our guide, was great and, with her expertise and warmth, did everything to make the trip an unforgettable experience for our kids (7 & 9). The snorkeling spots were great - especially the two off Koh Racha. We can highly recommend a trip with Phuket Dive Tours - also because it was anything but super touristy.

Thanks to the entire PowerCat crew and to John and Kan #phuketdivetours for a wonderful day!

A great dive experience, thanks to our dive master.
Jul 2023
We booked a tour of Vietnam and Thailand through Asia Pioneer travel, and stipulated that we dive two days in Phuket. We got so lucky that our travel agent at Asia Pioneer booked us through Phuket Dive Tours, and, specifically, because we landed Jon Parr as our dive master.
We were on a 2 day, three dive per day trip, and shared a dive boat with other operators, but we felt we had such a custom experience because of Jon.
My wife is the biggest dive enthusiast, followed by me, and finally our 14-year old, newly PADI certified, daughter. Jon made sure all of us got the most out of the trip.
We had such a lovely experience, and even though day 2 wasn't perfect conditions (low season, weather/currents related), Jon communicated to us what to expecting each dive, and we really appreciated his candor and attention to detail.
I can't say enough about how quality the experience was. If you are a family, and want to dive in Phuket, ask for Jon at Phuket Dive Tours!

Great tour. I’m going to share a summary, my review and important tips.

Summary: 3 divings (almost 3 hrs in total), transportation hotel-boat-hotel, good price, payment by web, simple but delicious food all the time at the boat, one guide/instructor for both, full equip for diving & pictures and videos with awesome definition (extra charge)

Review: it was a great experience; personal attention in English, easy and practical indication, good schedule and planning, the boat was very clean and comfortable, we Pat the photos and videos (1,500 bats in cash).

Tips: bring a towel, no need for special shoes you are going to be on your feet all day, carry cash for tips and pictures.

My boyfriend and I completed our open water and advanced adventurer certification this week. I cannot recommend Phuket Dive Tours enough!

Our training was personalized to fit our wants/needs/fears and we felt comfortable the entire time with him by our side.

For our dives we did all boat dives, which I definitely recommend for the best experience - we visited some of the best dive sites in Thailand! As a bonus we were able to learn so much about the marine life. Every day was well organized and such a blast.

We’re sad it’s over, but so ready for future dive trips! Thank you thank you!

From the very moment I walked into their Kata beach store, David greeted me with a smile. He explained to me and my friend (who had not dived before) all about what we'd be doing in the dive and gave us the best possible deal.

On the dive day, we were graced by Mod, our diving instructor. She was lovely and kind, and made sure that everything went well for me and my friend and that we were comfortable under the water.

Not only will I dive with them again, but also recommend them to my friends.

Keep being amazing guys.

David is everything you want/need from an instructor: gives clear instructions, is enthusiastic and hypes you up when you’re doing well and even in groups you feel as though he’s watching everyone carefully. Really knowledgeable about diving, marine life and the local reefs, would recommend Phuket dive tours to everyone!

The prices are really good. If you want to get your divers license I would recommend you doing that here because it is a lot cheaper than at other diver shops.
The owner is flexible and will help you if you have a problem and the instructors are also nice. You can have a great chat with them.
My instructor, Beto, was really nice and explained everything very well. He makes you feel very comfortable. So if you have any nerves about diving, know that you will be fine if you take your course here.
I really enjoyed booking at this place.

We would highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours. We took the refresher course session in their pool followed by a dive on Kata reef. Marshall made the day outstanding. He looked after us very well and was very thorough going through all the basic skills and listened carefully to what we wanted to practice. Great company too. A perfect and fun refresher course. David and Marshall both took us out on the reef and we came back with some great photos of the dive taken by David including our encounter with a cute cuttlefish.

Phuket Dive Tours are the best in Phuket. Why? How can I say that? Well, let me tell you…Their prices are the best and can’t be beat anywhere on the island. Their service is top notch. David, made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in the door and took as long as we needed to answer all of our questions. The dive team, Marshall and Tony and others, are professional, experienced, patient, and made the experience very fun. My wife got her certification at Phuket Dive Tours and I went along with them, as I’m already certified. Their training was done by the book with safety at the forefront. We will be back to Phuket at some point and our first stop will be Phuket Dive Tours for an excellent dive! Thank you so much!

I’ve tried scuba diving before but never got quite as comfortable. I also never realized how much there is to know until taking this course. Was a great 3 days.

Also the shop itself is excellent! Good location, awesome pool for training, and top of the line gear. Also David was really responsive and organized and made the booking and any additional questions we had a breeze. Highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours if your in the Phuket.

We had an amazing experience. Originally we were a group of 4, however one got sick over the night and had to cancel right before the transfer pickup at our hotel, this was handled very professionally and she even got most of her money back, only 200 baht for insurance was taken.
The three rest of us had a personal dive instructor, his name was Beto and he was very professional. One person in our company had trouble going down (her first time diving) and Beto did his very best and was very professional.
I have a dive certificate and was more comfortable diving, so i got moved to another instructor for my second and third dive so that i would be able to make some good dives while Beto worked with the beginners in our group.
Both my dives were amazing with the last dive visiting a wreck at about 20m, very good!
The big boat had fresh water shower and toilets, we had free snacks and food on board and the ride to the dive-site couldn’t have been more comfortable.
Overall an absolutely amazing experience.

I chose PDT from the good reviews and it was the right decision. Having to arrange diving trips for a family of 4 certified divers, mom and dad with 14and 12, and a 20 yo son taking open water certification was quite daunting. I spoke to David before arriving in Phuket and met Benz and Roman the instructor at the shop in Kata.

We did a refresher beach dive at Kata beach together with the training dive for the son taking SSI certification. The next day David arranged for a private catamaran to Yanui to complete the training dives as well as recreational dives for the rest of us.

We had a great time diving together as a family after almost 2 year break because of covid. Roman was patient with my children with high regards on safety that we felt safe diving with him. Thank you Roman for the great photos and videos as well. David was on the boat ensuring everything was in order and the whole trip was a joy. Thanks PDT for a memorable dive outing in Phuket.

This was a top notch diving center. Their communication was excellent as we booked, and the boat was comfortable and very well run—an extra thanks for ensuring we vegetarians had enough good food (not just sides) throughout the day.
All the dive instructors seemed great and very knowledgeable—a special thanks to Lauren, our instructor who was friendly, helpful, and incredibly knowledgeable. Divers of all levels of experience were on the boat, and all had a great time. Highly recommend!

Overall, the organization was excellent.

The pickup went smoothly, and the dive guide was great too.

The boat is used by several operators simultaneously; on the one hand, a high standard, on the other, a mass event. Around 30 divers jumped into the water at once, at dive sites where other boats were also moored. It was simply too crowded for me. Smaller operators handle this much better.

Due to the tight organization, everyone has to surface again after a maximum of 50 minutes.

This meant that everything felt very rushed in my group; there was no time to really see anything because we were running out of time.

Unfortunately, my buddies also included a couple who either hadn't dived in a long time or hadn't dived often. After 30 minutes, we started surfacing on all three dives. So we didn't even make it to 50 minutes.

I think the groups need to be put together differently because it wasn't for me.

So, the boat was great; the organization was generally excellent; the catering was good; But the rushed schedule with no time for anything and the extremely unfortunate group composition made it a one-off experience for me, devoid of any real enjoyment, and one I don't want to repeat.

It might be great for others, especially beginners or those who only dive occasionally, but for me it was a disappointment.

As an Advanced Diver I went out on a 3 dive tour for the day. Picked up from my hotel and taken to the large boat all ready and fitted out for the day's diving. I was met by my guide Tim Mayor who was great to dive with and had my safety at top of mind. Tim was ready with plenty of knowledgeable info, great conversation and helpful hints on the techniques of "looking cool" while diving 😂...many thanks Tim for the pics and making me look "cool". Oh and let me add that you certainly won't go hungry on the day as there was plenty of delicious food on offer. It is a long day so you will need it.
I would certainly recommend this company especially for the convenience of hotel pick up and drop off and all for a reasonable price.

The two of us booked the tour to Racha Noi and Racha Yai, and since we haven't been diving for a while, we also booked the refresher on board. Due to the weather in August, the boat ride was a bit bumpy (we recommend taking tablets against seasickness) but everything else was just great. Our dive guide Tim was super friendly and relaxed. The 3 dives were a lot of fun. The food after the first dive was also very tasty. We can really recommend the Phuket Dive Center. Everyone is super friendly and helpful.

After getting my Open Water Diver certification in Germany in June, I naturally wanted to go diving.

Since I wasn't sure which of the offered excursions would be the right one for me, I contacted the dive center beforehand via WhatsApp.

From the very beginning, the contact was friendly and competent, and there was absolutely no feeling of being treated like a mass-market dive.

As a beginner, I decided on Racha Noi and Racha Yai.

There were three of us plus the dive instructor, making for a small, manageable group.

Davide, our guide, was very friendly and even gave me some helpful tips on how I could improve when I asked questions.

I can highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours.

Look no further for an amazing diving experience. We had some days left before our flight and made a last minute decision to go fun diving.

We had a lot of questions, as we just got our Open Water Certificate, but Dave and Benz answered everything very quickly via WhatsApp.

Kan was an amazing guide during our 3 fun dives. She informed us very well about each diving spot and made sure to check our equipment together (since we are still very new). Underwater she checked up on us and helped searching for some fishes we really wanted to see. The boat was also very comfortable and the food very good.

Thank you so much to the whole Phuket Dive Tours-Team. We had an incredible day 😊

This is one of my best experiences in my life, sila is an awesome, supportive, patient and professional coach who helped me learned my open water skills well. I have a precious opportunity to see the fabulous underwater world and I’m so thankful for that. Sila guided me to go through the beautiful ocean and found a lot of amazing coral reefs and cute and colorful creatures. He’s so good at photography as well. Thanks to David who is from Phuket dive tours center helped me booking the tours, I wish I could come back again and I’ll definitely choose to do it here again. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to experience the Phuket dive tours and explore the mysterious underwater world. The instructor was incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, and I learned a lot from him, even beyond the course. He also had a professional underwater camera, which helped me take beautiful photos and record many beautiful fish! I highly recommend Sila for anyone looking to get a certification or experience diving! The instructor's Chinese-speaking skills are incredibly convenient for communication, and he'll also explain some professional diving vocabulary in Thai and English. Overall, if I have the chance to go diving in Phuket again, I'd definitely choose them!

He was extremely patient and detailed in the pre-dive briefing, making us comfortable and confident as absolute beginners. The diving group was small and private. There were nine people on the boat, and only two of us shared an instructor at sea. We look forward to obtaining a scuba diving qualification with Sila in the future.

Instructor Sila is incredibly patient and excellent. His positive reviews aren't exaggerated. He speaks fluent Chinese and English. There were only nine of us on the boat, making the small group a great experience. In the water, we were two to each instructor. Sila explained everything in detail and was very professional underwater. He also helped us take lots of beautiful photos, making us, as beginners, feel comfortable. I'm looking forward to getting my scuba diving certification under his guidance!

I took my Open Water Course with two friends (plus one fun diver) and did 6 dives over 2 days. So glad we chose Phuket Dive Tours! I was nervous at first, but we were incredibly lucky to have Tomasz as our instructor.

He was patient, meticulous, and always by our side - especially on the first ocean dive when I was really anxious. He taught us not just the skills, but also good habits like proper gear checks and weight belt handling, even repeating pool drills in the ocean to build our confidence. He’s always engaging us was and looking for interesting sea creatures, making sure we don’t miss it.

On Days 2 and 3, we were also accompanied by Dive Master P’Lam, who was also incredibly patient. He kept a close eye on us, helped me with buoyancy control, and took amazing photos during the dive. Both Tomasz and P’Lam made us feel safe and well-supported, even when we were seasick.

I walked away feeling confident in the water and so thankful for this experience. If you’re considering your OWC, I highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours and going with Tomasz and P’lam - great instructors, smooth logistics, and truly caring guidance. Thank you!

What an amazing experience from start to finish! I was able to walk in and make an appointment for the same day for the beginner scuba dive lesson. Prior to this, I had never scuba dived and I was absolutely terrified of doing so. I’m not the strongest swimmer and being under water scares me. However my instructor Lam made me feel incredibly comfortable and confident. I enjoyed it so much that I booked the day trip to Ko Racha Noi for the next day.

My instructor that day was David and he was awesome too. I especially appreciated how patient he was with me. Even though I had learned to dive the day prior, I was anxious about being in open water and it took me quite awhile before I felt comfortable going under the water.

If you’re thinking about scuba diving, just go for it!! It’s an amazing experience and you won’t regret it.

We booked a day trip (2 dives) to the Similan Islands with the provider.
Transfer from the hotel and to the Similans went smoothly.
Dive boat was well equipped, food was delicious.
Diving equipment (BCD, regulator) was in good condition.

The only drawback: The provider should point out again that divers should have a certain level of competence. In our group there were “super experienced divers” who often caught corals with their fins, touched corals (with gloves) and unfortunately didn’t have their buoyancy under control. But the provider can't do anything about it. If necessary, the dive guide should keep a closer eye on such behavior.

Amazing Diving Experience with Thomas Tomek at Kata Beach & Koh Phi Phi

I had the pleasure of going on a safety dive at Kata Beach followed by a dive trip to Koh Phi Phi, and I can honestly say it was an unforgettable experience, largely due to the excellent guidance of our diving instructor, Thomas Tomek.

Safety Dive at Kata Beach:
The safety dive at Kata Beach was a fantastic introduction to the diving conditions in Thailand. The underwater visibility was impressive, and the dive site offered a rich marine life experience with colorful fish and vibrant coral. Thomas ensured that every aspect of safety was covered, explaining all necessary procedures thoroughly and making sure I felt comfortable throughout the dive. His calm and reassuring presence made the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. It’s clear that he has extensive knowledge of the area and takes safety very seriously, which made me feel completely at ease.

Divetrip to Koh Phi Phi:
The trip to Koh Phi Phi was simply breathtaking. The crystal-clear waters and stunning underwater landscapes are beyond words. We encountered a wide variety of marine life, including graceful schools of fish, exotic species, and even a sea turtle. Thomas expertly guided us through the dive, pointing out fascinating marine creatures and ensuring that we were always safe and comfortable.

What stood out the most was Thomas’s professionalism and enthusiasm. He is not only highly skilled but also very passionate about diving. His ability to make each dive an educational and enjoyable experience truly enhanced the adventure. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced diver, his clear instructions and personal approach make him an exceptional instructor.

Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better diving experience. The dives at Kata Beach and Koh Phi Phi were beautiful, and I felt incredibly safe and well-guided thanks to Thomas. If you’re planning a dive in this area, I highly recommend Thomas Tomek – he’s a top-notch instructor and a wonderful person to dive with!

I had the opportunity to dive for two days in Phuket, exploring the impressive Phi Phi Islands and other points of interest in the area. From the get-go, the team was very professional and organized, making sure everything was ready for safe and exciting dives. The boat was very well equipped and everything was always under control for quick and efficient diving.

My instructors, Sonkid and Thomas, were exceptional. They both demonstrated great knowledge, patience and passion for diving. Sonkid stood out for his attention to detail and ability to convey confidence underwater, while Thomas made each dive even more special with his enthusiasm and professionalism. Thanks to them, I was able to enjoy the dives, in a safe and very fun way.

The dive sites chosen were spectacular, with incredible visibility and a great variety of marine life. From reef sharks to schools of barracudas and impressive coral formations, each dive was a unique adventure.

I definitely recommend this center to any diver, whether beginner or advanced, who wants to explore the waters of Phuket with a professional and passionate team.

I hope to return soon for more unforgettable dives!

Small dive groups made the attention to each diver really easy. I would highly recommend Phuket Dive Tours for this family tour.
I also did a shore dive with Pai and had such a great time. Easy access to the beach and Pai was great as showing me all the sea life and it was a great slow relaxing dive. For a fast dive if you’re limited on time, do a beach dive with Phuket Dive Tours.

Superb experience with my pool and beach “try dive”, cannot recommend these guys enough.

For context, prior to this, my first and only time scuba diving was a terrifying ordeal (being literally thrown in the deep end with no training) so I was put off for over a decade.

Walked past this shop and the friendly owner explained I could do a session in their pool to get familiar with the basics followed by a dive at the beach which involves a shallow gradient, so again, not scary at all.

Saw some amazing coral and fish, many thanks to Lam and Emily for their professionalism, reassuring me and training me, it’s been a game changer and made my Phuket trip truly memorable.

My instructor, Pascal, was absolutely outstanding. He demonstrated a genuine passion for teaching and was exceptionally competent, calm, and professional throughout the entire course. A heartfelt thank you, Pascal, for making this such an enjoyable experience!

Although I initially signed up for 4 dives (2 dives per day), I was given the opportunity to add 2 more dives each day for an additional cost. The diving spots themselves were stunning, making the entire experience even more memorable.

Safety was his number one priority. We also did a recreational dive after the course which was so fun and Tim even got some great photos of us during the dives. Everyone in the shop that helped us set up the dives were honest, helpful, and seemed like great folks. They even went above and beyond to help me sort out an issue/mix up with my PADI certification card. Would definitely recommend.

PADI shop near Kata Beach. The nicest dive boat I've been on with the best food! Our small group only had 4 guests and great instructors willing to help with anything you need. The owner was very friendly and funny. This will be my first stop when back in Thailand!! Thanks Benz & Gunn!!

I would recommend this Dive Tour. Dave was responsive with my questions via WhatsApp before I traveled to Phuket. My wife and I were picked up at Patong Beach hotel in shuttle Van of ten people. When we arrived at the marina, my wife and I were immediately partnered with Pascal. Pascal greeted us warmly and navigated us thru the marina and took us out to our dive boat. The double decker dive boat probably carried about 80 people which was a little surprised but Pascal was only assigned to my wife and I which was very reassuring. Pascal went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and explained what’s was going on and what to expect. My wife and I enjoyed the free buffet breakfast and a relaxing boat ride out to island. Pascal showed us our dive gear and explained the basics of diving. We did 3 dives and Pascal made sure we were comfortable/safe in the water. It was one of our best days on our vacation and it was because we had the right dive master looking after us = Pascal.

From start to finish the experience was brilliant. Done my deep diving and wreck diving courses and from booking David was very helpful.

My instructor was Alla and she couldn’t have been better. Very enthusiastic, helped ease me into diving again after a year away and took me to some beautiful diving spots and was very knowledgeable on the sea life. Knew exactly where the fish would be resting and was constantly showing me fish spots that most divers would overlook.

Overall I would highly recommend dive tours for both excellent management and amazing instructors.

Me, my husband and my friend decided to go with this company for a package which comes with a diving lesson for beginners and a short dive, we really amazed with our instructor (a sweet thai lady named Gan). She was very patient taking her time to ensure that all of us understand how to dive safely and comfortably.

I am not good at swimming at all, always extremely nervous going into the ocean without a life jacket.

Gan paid close attention to me as my husband and my friend are excellent swimmers who just don’t know how to dive. In the middle of the lesson in their pool, I was already gave up thinking of going back to the hotel, however, she patiently went over and over on the equipment, breathing and other things that we are supposed to know in details and had me practice until I felt comfortable and safe to go diving.

After that we all went into the ocean together because I was not able to control how to use the fins perfectly yet, she held my hand and we dove next to each other and at the same time look out for my husband and my friend.

We had such a great time and experience with her. We would definitely recommend anyone who’s interested to be taught by Gan.

My best day in Thailand was diving with this center. From my first inquiry, David was so responsive and flexible in answering my questions and meeting my requests. The customer service here is beyond excellent.

I had M as my private dive guide, and he gave me truly 5-star service through his utmost professionalism, friendly and warm attitude, and attention throughout the day. He took fantastic video and ensured we enjoyed long dives at Phi Phi islands. I feel like I've made a friend and a wonderful dive buddy I would happily recommend to all.

We were so privileged to see multiple sharks and such healthy marine life. The sites we visited were diverse and carefully selected with priority given to safety, divers' certification level, and conditions.

As a PADI Instructor and former dive center owner, I recognize just how much hard work (so much of it behind the scenes) goes into maintaining such a smooth and safe operation such as this. It's no easy feat, and the team at Phuket Dive Tours makes you feel like an honored guest and part of the family. I look forward to coming back one day to explore more. Thank you all for embodying the best spirit of the dive community through today's dives!

The reviews are correct for this one! Fantastic tour from pickup to drop off.. what made it so special was small group size in a large boat. The guides were safety conscious yet catered to various skill levels. The photographer/guide was available to take amazing pictures and videos (well worth the extra tip). Saw lots of nemos and other colorful little and medium size fish. The coral is alive and vibrant.
The guide even shared some free diving tips that helped. It was my second time playing this activity. Not feasible for me, living in Canada.
It may cost a tad more than other crowed tours, but think about what’s more important!

My fiance and I did a practice pool dive before we went to the ocean, which was extremely helpful as this was my first time scuba diving. Our instructor Somkid was excellent and taught us everything we needed to know in the pool and really took his time to make sure we felt safe before going into the ocean. I was a bit concerned that i wore -2.50 prescription for glasses and i would not be able to see underwater as i could not wear my glasses… but Phuket Dive Tours provided a solution and had prescription goggles available for my use and they worked excellent! Everything about this experience was worth the money and it will be an experience we will always remember. I HIGHLY recommend this company.

I have just finished my 3-day SSI open water diver certification here and Pascal was my instructor. Due to food poisoning, I felt terrible on my second training day. Pascal was very reassuring and planned an easier day for me which made all the difference. He also used the underwater videos to help me understand different ways to move and navigate around the water which was very useful. I had a great time learning to scuba dive with Phuket Dive Tours! Thank you very much!

I would like to thank Dive Tours, in particular instructor Alla, for providing an excellent opportunity to try out the recently received PADI OWD certificate and get my first good diving experience) there is always an opportunity to see rare marine inhabitants underwater, but not 100%. I was lucky, I saw a turtle, stingray, barracuda, moray eel, fish frog and a bunch of other beautiful iridescent fish) I want to recommend the Dive Tour, because they provide a Russian-speaking instructor, 3 dives and the quality of the trip leaves a pleasant impression, I recommend it!)

P.S. (If I have to make a complaint, it would be that the memory of the photos is very expensive🤷🏻‍♂️compared to other schools that do the same excursion)

This 5 star rating is NOT based on the actual diving experience. It is based on the service and attentiveness of Phuket Dive Tours itself. A more detailed breakdown follows if you are interested. In short, these are the people to go to for coordinating your Phuket, Thailand SCUBA diving.

Benz, the owner, was AWESOME. Clear, concise and very helpful. We planned two dive days for our stay in Phuket, and I did not regret at all using PDT for our arrangements. You are in great hands giving your trust to them for a great dive experience. PDT is an SSI shop, if that particularly matters.

About diving in Phuket.

I am a Master Diver and was open water certified in 1979, i.e. lots of dives

This DOES NOT reflect on what a live aboard trip as far as the dive experience is concerned in the area. We booked a multi-dive day to the Phi Phi islands and another to Racha Noi (sp?).

Few (if any) of the dive centers here actually own their own boats or equipment. They sub-contract for spots on large dive boats and your dive guide is the primary contact to coordinate your dive day and get you from hotel to diving and back. Our guides were Victor and Andy and they were two of the best I have ever been around!

As planned, our shuttle to the pier arrived and off we went. They were well equipped to handle people with their own dive gear, but for this trip, half way around the world, I only brought dive vest, mask, fins and dive watch/computer, opting to use their equipment as it was just two days of diving. To my surprise, all dive gear was included in the price, so you can literally just show up in a swim suit and go diving.

Visibility was decent, affected by shore runoff from heavy rains the previous month, still pumping silt into the ocean. I must say that the environment did not look at all hearty and my daughter and I noticed a brown green tinge to everything, that might be attributed to the runoff. But, the system is obviously stressed by too many divers and warmer than usual waters, making both factors too much for the ecology to handle. As we dove Mid-October right at the beginning of the dive season, I can only imagine conditions will not improve with throngs of tourists pouring into the area.

As for our first dive, we were on a large boat with at least 50 divers of all experience levels (and nationalities). For me there were too many people in the water and the different groups tended to get on top of each other as guides from different groups jockeyed to get their dive group to the best locations in each dive area. I would not recommend the local dive sites during peak tourist season if there are even more dive boats dumping divers on top of each other, at least for the Phi Phis. Watching inexperienced divers kicking the bottom and bumping into coral was also frustrating as the corals and micro-biom are already struggling as it is.

The “rental equipment” (as stated, included in the cost) was adequate and most importantly, the regulators worked as they should. My pressure gauge kept sticking, so this too was a distraction having to constantly tap it to see how much air I had left (an important factor to know when diving 🙃). These dives are pretty much timed out conservatively by the guides anyway and I was never close to running out of air. None of this is “the fault” of PDT, and should not be a reflection on them.

Apparently, the dives we have planned for day two are further south and water conditions are much better. I will add that experience later if it is significantly different than our day one.

I no longer dive just to “blow bubbles”. I want decent visibility, plenty to look at, especially the “small stuff” (because ANYONE can see a shark or a turtle) and enjoy the wonders of the underwater world. From the expectations that had been built up for me about “diving Thailand” from other divers, I have to say I was disappointed. Yes, I’m a salty old diver, so take that into account.

Overall:

Phuket Dive Tours: 10/10
Boat, Equipment: 7/10
Crew, Boat Service, Food: 8/10
Dive Experience, Environment: 5/10

She took great photos for me and was so happy and positive. During the ferry ride she went in depth explaining the locations and the itinerary while answering any questions that I had. They provided transport to the docks, ferry ride to the dive site with three meals, all of which were really tasty. Felt super well taken care of and had an amazing time.

Hello!!!
We were lucky enough to be able to spend a whole day with you, thank you Benz for all the organization and the great team that you have, starting of course with our instructor Kaan, a wonderful, professional, fun person who was attentive to my friend at all times. Aida and me (which was my first time doing a dive)
In my case I did 2 dives and my friend who already has a qualification did 3, and during the time I was doing the third dive I was able to be snorkeling.
The organization was perfect, the food was incredible (congratulations to the cooks) and both the boat team and the rest of the instructors were very attentive to everyone to make it an unforgettable experience,

Thank you really,
You have discovered a new and wonderful world for me,

See you in the blue 🥽🐡♥️

Had a brilliant experience with kata dive tours in August. Signing up in person at their shop was a breeze. No upselling or rushing. Everything was explained and displayed properly. Communication on the day the van picked us up from my hotel was also good. Replies on WhatsApp was fast

Did 3 dives to king cruiser wreck, shark point and Koh doc mai. I had the pleasure of diving with one of the best instructor/divemaster I've had in Andrii.
He was attentive to our needs and safety at all times. He got us ponchos due to the heavy rain at the start of the dive. And gave clear instructions and briefings on the dives with maps of the dive sites that he brought.
He took special care to make sure I got my dive gear on properly as it had been some time since my last dive and I forgot some things. His patience and clear instructions were both professional and fun. I had confidence in the safety of my equipment and appreciate that he looked over every detail before we started each dive.
The dives were beautiful and fun. He helped us take beautiful pictures of us as well and took the trouble to find interesting marine life for us to see.
His tips on diving and easy going manner made this diving day incredible. Give this man a raise!

Phuket Dive Tours is a class act. Starting with personalized service of the owners David and Benz who walked me through the sign up process and made concessions when my flight didnt allow me to finish my 3rd dive. David was legitimately concerned for my safety and advised me not to dive the 3rd dive. The boat is huge, and beautiful. The staff is extremely helpful, welcoming and engaging. The food spread was endless and delicious. My guide Andrey was the cherry on top. He was meticulous, informative and ever watchful underwater. He even made sure he showed me how to clean and maintain my equipment after he learned I had just bought all my gear for the first time. I highly recommend this crew and company. I will definitely be coming back to see them again.

We had an incredible experience with Thomas as our dive guide during today's scuba diving trip to Phi Phi Island. From the moment we met, his warm and welcoming demeanor put us at ease. Thomas's professionalism and knowledge were evident throughout the day, making us feel safe and well-prepared for each dive.

The briefing before our dives was thorough and informative. Thomas took the time to explain the dive sites, safety protocols, and what to expect underwater. His attention to detail and patience with our questions made us feel confident and excited about the adventure ahead.

Underwater, Thomas's expertise truly shone. He led us through stunning coral reefs and vibrant marine life, pointing out unique species and interesting features along the way. His keen eye and deep understanding of the area enriched our experience, allowing us to fully appreciate the beauty of Phi Phi Island's underwater world.

Thomas also made a point to check on each member of our group, ensuring we were comfortable and enjoying the dive. His calm and reassuring presence was invaluable, especially for those of us who were new to diving. He was always attentive and supportive, making the experience enjoyable and stress-free.

Overall, Thomas made our scuba diving trip to Phi Phi Island unforgettable. His professionalism, knowledge, and genuine passion for diving made the day exceptional. We highly recommend Thomas to anyone looking for a skilled and personable dive guide. Thank you, Thomas, for an amazing day underwater!

I spent ten days doing scuba training with Phuket Dive Tours back in January, so this review is a bit overdue. It was my first time ever diving and it was an absolute blast. I cannot recommend these folks enough.

Scheduling was super easy. After browsing their website to understand their course offerings, I contacted David, the owner, over WhatsApp. He was very prompt in getting back to me and was happy to answer my questions as a diving newbie. Booking and payment was handled online.

Over ten days, I completed the Try Scuba, Open Water, Advanced Open Water, Night Diving, Deep Diving, and Nitrox classes. A total of 18 dives.

My instructor was Tim Mayor, a scuba veteran with over 6500 dives logged. I couldn't ask for a more competent and patient teacher. I felt safe the entire time and we got to dive some really cool sites. He also took a ton of great photos and videos during the training, which is something I especially appreciate.

If you're thinking of trying diving, you can't go wrong with these folks.

Alla is a very talented instructor, she showed us everything and explained everything as many times as it was needed for a full understanding. First we practiced skills in the pool for a long time, then on the beach Kata. I was like a squeezed lemon after the first two days. :)
When it was time to dive from the boat, I was already having fun and enjoying the process ^_^
The staff of the center is very friendly and communicative. Always ready to help.
If I will be in Phuket someday, I will definitely come for another dive!

Our main lesson learned with Thailand, is that if you want seclusion, privacy and empty beaches, Phuket is not the place. This applies to diving. It’s busy and everything is on a grand scale. Our 3-dive day trip to Phi Phi was on a boat with probably 20-30 divers and it was the first time diving in such conditions for us. That being said, it was well organised, professional and our dive guide was very good. What you see is simply luck of the draw - we saw no sharks, but plenty of everything else.

1. Arranged online with ease
2. WhatsApp tips/support helpful
3. All your equipment is setup for you on the boat
4. You get breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, ice cream/fruit + soft drinks/tea/coffee/water
5. Boat has a large sundeck to take in the sun
6. 3 WC with showers too (wet room style)

I would recommend the tour (Phi Phi) and company, but be mindful of the following:

1. Phi Phi is a full day- 7:00 am pickup and back on land at 19:00+. Getting to the first dive site is approx 3 hours, as the boat is a bit slow
2. It’s a large group so if you want some 1:1, worth paying a personal dive guide
3. I did not read that we had to pay 600 THB pp on the boat for the national park fees (my bad)

Final tip - ask about what tour suits you beforehand. Better than simply googling “top dive sites in Phuket”.

We were staying at Club Med and had diving planned with them. The boat’s motor broke up on the d-day so we could not dive neither this day nor the following days (boat still broken+end of our stay) and NO REFUND was granted whereas they were not able to propose the same trip later (motor still out of service+unavailability from us). Be very careful with their compliance with the rules ⛔️ motor not working should mean refund!

There are two things I miss with Phuket, first of all is the fried shrimp. But that’s not the most important one, the most important one is Phuket Dive Tours and specifically Tim. My first diving instructor. The amazing experience Tim gave me and my girlfriend laid grounds for an amazing appreciation for diving and how to have fun under water but staying safe while doing so. Never once was any important safety step skipped and not once did we feel unsafe. It was the best start in diving I think you could have. I’d strongly recommend doing the open water diver course at Phuket Dive Tours.
Thank you Tim. (Me and my girlfriend who did the open water with Tim are now dive masters 5 months later)

Had an amazing time in the 3 Day Open Water Scuba Certification taught by Tim Mayor! He is super knowledgeable and kind and makes sure the students are confident and competent with every skill. Class sizes are small which is great. I would recommend this program.

Tim took me for my SSI open water referral, he was so calm & put me at ease immediately from the get go, went through all the steps and made sure I understood what was expected. I had so much fun & felt totally relaxed. Tim also took my daughter out with us and it was so magical to be able to dive together. He was such fun that we booked him for the following day with my youngest and did a discover diving with her, very calm nature put her at ease.
No question was a silly one, so calm
& patient with us all but with a great sense of humour!
Boats were exceptional clean and organised, food was amazing & really tasty.
The crew really looked after us on both days, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Phuket Diving tours to anyone! Thank you for making my holiday!! 😀🤿🤿

Phuket Dive Tours are a professional and friendly dive tour operators based in an easily accessible shop just before Kata beach. I enjoyed my quick refresher and two dives with divemaster Laem. Our dive sites included a ship wreck and a motorbike and an array of corals underwater. It was a great memory revisiting Kata beach after first love of Phuket 18 years ago. Thanks to Benz and David for making it an experience for me.

Can only recommend doing your diving lessons here. We had a great time with our instructor Tim. Wether it is theoretical knowledge or practical he is really easy going and can explain everything easily so anyone can understand it. We did our open water here and for sure will do the advanced aswell here!

Update: We have finished our advanced course too. And where lucky enough to have Tim again as our instructor. As a bonus we have also included the nitrox course which was exceptionally well explained by our instructor. Over all we had 6 Boat dives for our Advanced course on Phi Phi island King cruiser etc. I cannot recommend explain in words how beautiful the underwater world is.
The only thing I can recommend is using Phuket dive tours for your licensing or fun dives they are so nice and welcoming. Will come back for sure to do some fun dives!

Did the beginner pool + beach dive with Kan for my first time doing SCUBA and had such a great experience. Instruction was clear and fun and didn't feel rushed, but it still felt like we had solid time out for our dive. The small group of three of us learning was perfect. I would definitely come back here for full certification.

The initial contact via the shop conveys quite a bit of sales pressure. However, this would not be necessary as the tours are really well organised and visit beautiful dive sites. The crew on board, the food and the schedule (divers have priority) are superbly organised. We also had a great diving instructor, Jon, who went out of his way to show us everything. All in all, highly recommended.

My husband and I went on a dive tour for the first time with our instructor Victor from Phuket Dive Tours and it was an incredible experience! He is a great guy and he made us feel very comfortable throughout the journey. We were properly briefed for every dive and all our questions were answered. He is also extremely passionate and enthusiastic and goes above and beyond in taking amazing photos and sharing his experiences! We saw so many beautiful corals and marine lives throughout the dive!

We took the practice dive at the pool with instructor Alla and she was pretty amazing! She explained all the necessary details required for the first time diver and we practiced diving in the pool.

A very big Thank you to Victor & Alla! You guys are amazing!🙌🏼

Under the guidance of Jon Parr, my PADI instructor, I had an extraordinary open water diving experience. Jon's swift and decisive actions saved me from a potentially dangerous situation, showcasing not only expertise but a genuine commitment to safety. His patience and cool demeanor transformed each lesson into an enjoyable and enriching experience. His teaching style it fantastic breaking down tricky skills into simple stuff. The equipment provided by Phuket dive store was of the highest quality, contributing to a seamless and comfortable dive. Jon's meticulous approach to each skill instilled confidence, and his dedication to giving ample time to every student created a supportive learning environment. Bonus: he took some exceptionally cool photos and videos under water. I wholeheartedly recommend Jon Parr for an exceptional and safe diving journey.

I came to Phuket with my 12 old son for his winter school vacation. Very last minutes we have decided to get open water certification. We searched google, found out this Phuket diving tour we did 3 full days for training. It was awesome . Program is well organized. As a beginner, it is great experience. I met Vitor, our instructor, he is French origin. He is GREAT instructor !!! He guide and trained us most effectively .
My son and I are very impressed his instruction. Thanks to him we made it. He opened our first step to explore the new underworld..
If you are considering to get certification open water scuba diving in Thailand.. highly recommend this school .please find Vitor.
I am planning to comeback here again with my divers friends. Mostly from Korea.

Did a night dive speciality course with Phuket Dive Tours and it was really fun. The instructor Jon was really patient and explained everything in detail for us. We haven't dived for a long time so he also helped to recap some of the things for us before the dive. Got to see a different side of the reef, tho there's less things to see but it was a great experience.
One thing though, please please please be early. We were about to set out to the beach when someone just showed up so we got delayed.

I completed a refresher dive at Kata Beach with Victor yesterday afternoon as it had been about a year since I was diving.
He was patient, professional and gave me reassurance I just needed to breathe and take my time!
I ended up booking a full excursion today with Phuket Dive Tours, and had the pleasure of having Victor again for the three dives. Our group was great- two members received their open water and it was a relaxing, pleasant experience.

If you are coming to dive for the 100th time or even the first time, I will strongly recommend Victor as your instructor. He has the right balance of patience, professionalism and overall great attitude.

Merci Victor 🤿🙌

My daughter and I were with Tim - I needed to sort my buoyancy and my daughter did some intro dives and he was incredibly patient and thorough and I’ve never felt more comfortable with my buoyancy. It’s great they have a pool out the back so you can refresh your skills in an easy, convenient location. Highly recommend.

Fully endorse. Tim was our instructor. He went above and beyond to make our certification program a success.
It was our first time ever Scubadiving, and my girlfriend had never snorkeled before. With the transition, Tim was patient and built the course around our level of comfort - eventually getting us to successfully complete our open water certification.
The equipment was great. The course took us from knowing literally nothing to feeling comfortable going together without an instructor.
David, the owner, met us on the first day. He answered all of our questions and was exceedingly patient ensuring we had all the answers we needed.
The boat dives were awesome - highly recommend you consider springing for it.
If you want a safe bet, Phuket Dive Tours is it… and ask for Tim!

Great dive company, booked two day tours with them and had clear communication before the dives through WhatsApp and email. Dive groups were small - I was in a group of two for my first dive and was alone with my guide for the second. Both guides (Tim and Yak) were knowledgeable and kind and made the process seamless. Pricing is similar to other dive shops in the area and they also included hotel pickup.

Avoid these companies. I booked a day trip to the Similan islands through Phuket Dive Tours. The dive was outsourced to South Siam Divers. We arrived at the dive boat after a 2.5-hour minibus ride and 1.5 hour speed boat ride. Our first dive was where the boat was moored for the night, and we were swimming over sand for around 35 minutes out of the 50-minute dive, and the rest was some sorry looking half dead corals. They were just too lazy to move the boat. Spend your time and money with companies which try to provide you with enjoyable service, not these two.

So, after my first DSD with David's crew in April, I got my open water certification and beelined it to Phuket for more dives with them. This time around, we had Tim as our dive guru for three awesome dives. Hanging out with Tim on the boat and underwater was an absolute blast! The guy's a legend, making the whole thing a breeze and keeping us in stitches with his cheeky dive stories.

The first day took place with 2 dives on Racha Yai and a snorkel on Coral Iceland from a catamaran. We hadn't dived for several months. Victor was able to remind us of the main diving rules and give us confidence.
The second day, we made 3 dives on Kho Phi Phi. The fish, turtles, corals... were there. Thanks to all of Victor's kind advice and his experience, we learned a lot.
We recommend this diving agency and the dives with Victor.

Spent two days with dive instructor Jon P. from Phuket Dive Tours completing my Advanced Open Water certification. I can’t thank Jon, plus David and his team from PDT enough. Incredibly well organised, Jon was outstanding, I’m not your typical diver. 6’4” 155kg and I gulp air like it’s my last. He worked through every stage, teaching me perfect buoyancy and trim, breathing techniques and observational awareness.
I had a moment where I started to panic, Jon calmed me down, got me focused and we completed the dive safely. Thank you so much.
If you’re looking for a place to up skill, or just a recreational dive, you can’t go past Phuket Dive Tours, also, ask for Jon if he’s available, a real gentleman.

Me and my diving buddy did the Adventure Course with Phuket Dive Tours. It was an awesome experience. The paperwork at the shop was easily done and the pickup from the hotel worked well.
At the pier we were greeted by our dive instructor Jon. From there it was just amazing. We were properly briefed for every dive and all our questions were answered. Jon took care of pretty much everything and we were always suited up and ready when the signal from the captain came - so we had the most of the dive experience and time. The dive spots were awesome and Jon showed us all different kind of wildlife hidden at some places. He made the tasks fun and took away the nervousness.
It was a great experience that I'd dearly recommend.

TLDR: great dive shop, totally recommend!

I did a refresher followed by Advanced course with PDT, and it was a great experience.

Refresher; there was a bit of a planning hiccup once I arrived at the shop for my refresher as the instructor got delayed/overbooked. This was however handled very well by the staff at the shop and in my favour, meaning I got more than I originally paid for.
If you’re doing a refresher, do the beach one! The sea life is really great and it’s totally worth the few extra baht!

Advanced: big thanks to Jon who was our instructor and made the 2-day Advanced course so much fun!
I got paired with another girl for the course, and kudos to the shop for that pairing cause we were the best dive buddies!
Jon always got us ready early so we would be the first to jump into the water and get dibs on the dive site 😁
He also took pictures (additional paid service) and I’m so happy to have these memories of the beautiful dives and animals we’ve seen!
We had pick up and drop off at the hotels, the food on the boats was fine, and the communication in case of questions smooth.

Kata shop: I popped by the shop a few times and the staff there was always very welcoming, helpful, and in a good mood 😁

Excellent diving, very friendly and helpful people.. With 110 euros 3 dives and I didn't worry about anything..
Excellent organization, they pick you up at the hotel, take you to the port for the day of diving and bring you back to the hotel.
Equipment included in the price, you can go in costume and they'll take care of the rest. Between one dive and another there are guys who refill the tank and fix everything without having to do anything, obviously you always have to check. Very helpful guide, the guy I ended up with Tom took several photos which he later shares on Instagram for you to download. Highly recommended! 😎

From start to finish, everything about Phuket Dive Tours was spot on ! I booked while I was still in the UK via their website weeks before we arrived in Thailand.
My son aged 13 did his SSI Open water dive course and I did a refresher course. The on-site pool at Phuket Dive Tours is a real asset to the business and great for novice divers and people like me who haven't dived for years so we can get the basics down before taking to the sea.
Tim our instructor was a fantastic mentor who talked us and guided us through the course and the 4 dives we did off Phucket. We really couldn't of chose a better dive school of dive instructor !
The boat and all the equipment supplied was fantastic.
If you are considering learning or going diving while in Phucket you should really consider giving these guys a look and see for yourself how good they are at what they do.

We recently dove at the Great Barrier Reef and both agreed we liked these even better. We saw black tip reef sharks, a turtle, and tons and tons of beautiful fish. The boat ride was smooth and although I am prone to sea-sickness, I never felt sick. Would 100% recommend and will dive with this company again when we return!

We got picked up at our hotel and met our friendly and professional guide Jon. He briefed us on the dives and set us up with equipment.

The boat ride was nice, serving delicious snacks and meals with about an hour between each dive site.

Our guide Jon made us feel safe and welcomed during 3 50-minute dives which he adapted to our experience level.

Jon knew exactly where to spot amazing wildlife including black tip reef sharks, turtles, and tons of fish. He also took us through a beautiful open water cave, and even took professional photos of us and everything we saw so we could focus on diving.

The dive sites were warm, not too crowded, and had great visibility. Would definitely go again!

Jon was so patient, kind and encouraging and I never had any doubt that my son wasn’t in the safest of hands. We went to 3 dive sites in one day and saw beautiful coral, thousands of fish and a motorbike. We were very lucky with the weather being low season and the visibility was fantastic.

What an amazing experience with Phuket Dive Tours. We came from the USA having already completed our SSI pool testing and our paper exam. We planned to complete our open water dives as referrals when we arrived in Thailand. Dave was great in coordinating our referral and planning our dive trips. Jon was our primary dive master and we also had a second dive master since we had one adult , an 11yo and a 14yo. Jon was amazing- incredibly patient , kind, engaging and very informative. His years of experience, passion for diving and teaching are evident. He really was the perfect match for our family. The boats, crew, food, transportation were just
The icing on the cake. It was a flawless experience! Highly recommend!

Professional, courteous, accommodating and kind. I really can't say enough good things about the team here.

I did a one day pool try dive here and I'm currently two days into my three day open water course. My partner is slightly less confident than I am and our instructor Jon is exactly the right mix of kind and assertive. She feels safe learning with him.

The equipment provided to us for rental is high quality, sometimes even brand new, and we'll maintained.

This is one of the only dive schools in the area with their own pool so if you want to avoid fighting with other schools in a shared pool of too many people during high season then this is definitely the place!

Looking forward to finishing my SSI open water in the next few days and will definitely be back for me!

The perfect dive tour operators,
Dave does a fantastic job with the customer service he provides, always replies straight away and will help you in your decisions on your scuba activities.

The team he has to provide the training are top calibre and full of knowledge and experience, I had the opportunity to meet 3 of his instructors during my scuba diving experience. And every day was made to be a memorable one.

You have loyal customers in my brother and myself.

To Dave and his team.
Thank you.

I did the Scuba Open Water Diving Course (SSI) with phuket dive tours and it has really got to be the best experience. My instructor, Jon was extremely patient and assuring as I was very unconfident with being in deep waters. He made sure that i was comfortable and kept encouraging me on. I definitely felt that i was in good hands with Jon! He is also extremely passionate and enthusiastic and goes above and beyond in taking amazing photos and sharing his experiences. He knows how to calm you down really well, taught me how not to be afraid of the wild life underwater. If you’re not confident like I was, you can trust Jon Parr!

I had a refresher course and 2 dives with John on a speedboat at Racha yai and Racha Noi. Two of my buddies completed their open water there and we were really happy with everything. John's courses are very thorough and detailled and he is also a fun lad. The coworkers and owner adjusted our whole program to our needs and were incredibly flexible. We also did a night dive with Benz and Kan which was also fun. The training pool didn't offer any shade and that would definitely help. To put it in a nutshell we were really satisfied with what we got for money and we can highly recommend this diving school and our instructor Jon.

I signed up my 3 teenagers age 13,15&17 with David for the Open Water certification course. We were very impressed and happy with the instructor Sean who is assisted by Sam - a trainee instructor. Sean is extremely experienced and patient with the kids and make the learning fun for them. He is able to impart the essential skills and knowledge required and I feel safe with him leading the kids on they first dives which is so important. He makes them enjoys the diving and doing it safely too.

Phuket Dive Tours has great customer service and great prices! I went into my Open Water Course a bit nervous about what could happen underwater. My fears were eased in the stupendous training given at the pool first, Jon did a great job having us practice each part of SSI a lot so that when we were in the ocean, it was just second nature and there was no panic if there were to be a real emergency. He also eased my fears of sharks or other animals attacking by his attitude toward diving, very happy and relaxed! It was a real joy to be underwater! We saw some amazing creatures and Jon was the perfect guide for it! He is super patient and never sounds annoyed or rude in his tone of voice, even if he had to repeat himself multiple times. I was really grateful for Jon being my first instructor in diving! We had lots of great conversation with him and the other students on the boat too! He's got lots of great stories and wisdom to share! I'm sure all of the other instructors are amazing too because the culture among the staff at Phuket Dive Tours seems great!

I have done an Open Water Dive course with Phuket Dive Tours. David and his team are very attentive, friendly and helpful and did a great job to teach and improve your diving skills. Yet a beginner I have always felt comfortable in/under the water. I have enjoyed the two day tours with 6 dives very much. Tony is a very competent, patient and good instructor. The dives were a lot of fun. The associated boat and the crew are also very nice. Excellent service and food. Highly recommended if you wanna dive around Phuket and have a great diving experience. Go with Phuket Dive Tours at Kata Beach!

My wife & I got our SSI Open Water Diver Certificate with Phuket Dive Tours. We had an amazing time with our instructor Sean. We felt safe and any questions we had were answered. Sean was a great help to overcome any insecurities and fears we might have, and at the end of our six dives we feel comfortable to do more dives and pursue further SSI training in the near future. We also really appreciate that Phuket Diving Tours organized someone to watch our 3 year old twins on the boat while we were diving as well as during the pool training session (thank you Mark!)

We highly recommend Phuket Diving Tours to anyone!

I did my open water diving certification with David. The prices are super fair and everything is intuitively explained. For the course material you just have to download an app. It is very convenient. Also, I stayed at one of their bungalows for a week. The bed is comfortable, there is a wardrobe, a big table you can work on, a kettle, a small fridge, and AC, the shower is hot. There are several bungalows on the property and it does feel cosy with the greenery around.
The beach is not even 300 meters away.
David and his wife Benz are very helpful. They arranged transport to the airport for me that was inexpensive eventhough I had only asked the night before my morning flight.
