The best PADI Dive Center on Koh Phangan

DEEPLY ADDICTIVE since 1997

Why Dive With Us?

1. Personalized, Small-Group Diving

We cap our fun dives at maximum 4 guests per guide and we do not mix experienced divers with beginner levels, so you’re never kicked in the mask by a stranger’s fin. Less crowd = more reef time, more marine life, and more one-on-one pointers from our experienced Instructors and Divemasters.

2. Top-Rated, Yet Totally Chill

TripAdvisor? Five shiny stars. PADI audits? All clear. Vibes? Pure island chill. We blend pro-level safety with a “you’re-part-of-the-family” atmosphere that keeps divers coming back every season.

3. Fair, Transparent Prices

We believe affordable scuba diving in Thailand shouldn’t feel like a budget compromise. Gear rental, buffet lunch, snacks, fresh fruit, and a heap of tips are baked into every quote. No hidden “boat fuel” or Park fees, ever.

Signature Experiences

Fun Dives for Certified Explorers

Already got your scuba certification? Our main dive site is the iconic Sail Rock, with occasional trips to Koh Tao, Angthong Marine Park, and other exciting destinations available upon request.. Nitrox upgrades, underwater photography briefings, and snorkeling gear for non-diving buddies are all on deck.

Learn and become a certified Diver—PADI Courses in Thailand

From Discover Scuba to Divemaster, we run the full PADI menu. The hero program? Open Water Course—four days of theory (online), pool/beach drills, and four ocean dives that end with you holding a diving certification and a grin that won’t quit. Training happens right here in Haad Yao’s calm bay before we venture to deeper playgrounds.

What Makes Us Different

  • Local roots: Founded by dive pros in 1997; still owner-operated
  • Eco mindset: Reef-safe sunscreen available, no single-use plastics, coral-restoration partnerships
  • Real mentorship: Gear tweaking, buoyancy clinics, career advice—our team loves turning rookies into confident buddies
  • Our dive team is not only highly trained but also genuinely friendly and passionate about what they do.
