Location and Booking

Our goal is to help you have an excellent, safe and satisfying diving experience on Phuket and/or the Similan islands, in every way.

  • Diving courses: a high quality divecourse for a very reasonable price, where the speed of the course depends on the student and not on the material. All courses are conducted in small groups of maximum four persons, quite a few of them are even private courses. Learning how to dive and continuing education courses are safe and fun.
  • Diving daytrips: we will give a personal advice, and make sure you get the best possible experience. Depending on personal wishes and diving experience, we will give our advice regarding boat and destination. Wherever possible, we will send a private guide along.
  • Diving liveaboard trips: there is more to a liveaboard than just the diving and the boat, it is the whole experience. So we talk to you, give you our opinion on different boats, their crews, the kind of guests that are normally on these boats, the service standard, the divemasters, etc.
Because of our personal service and advice, we have lots of returning guests. We are not happy until our guests are happy!
