"I and my girlfriend had a great lifeboard at the Similans and Richelieu Rock with Similan Diving Safaris from 22 to 26 December. Simply Great! Both the diving and the Thai staff were fantastic: professional and funny in the same time. I will return! "
Francesco Pipino

"I just wanted to comment that i just did an excellent liveaboard to the Similan Islands with 'Similan Diving Safaris' based in Khao Lak. Their price appeared to be the cheapest in town, but the quality of the boat, guides, Thai boat staff and indeed everything was first class. Anybody on a bit of a budget should definitely check these guys out! "
Cam Steele

"My wife and I wanted to get certified and book a liveboard with a reputable dive operator. After searching online for several hours, we decided to go with Similan Diving Safaris. I was still not sure what to expect until we arrived. We did our theory the day before our liveaboard departure and had an awesome instructor. In fact, the entire staff was incredibly friendly, helpful and professional. What a fun bunch!
After completing our Open Water Course, we decided to do our Advanced Certification in order to further improve our skills and expand our diving horizons. It was a great call. We learned how to improve our bouyancy control through the Peak Performance Bouyancy course and greatly improved our confidence.
Besides the diving, the food on board was delicious, far exceeding my expectations. you will not starve while aboard the Dolphin Queen. The guides on our liveaboard were amazing. Thanks Amy, Seth, Stefano, Jello, Sabrina and Van!
4 day/4 night Liveaboard at the Similan Islands + Open Water Course: ~$700 per person"

"I had a fabulous time diving in the Similan Islands with Similan Diving Safaris. The dive staff and crew were really friendly and professional. Good dive briefings before every dive, great food (vegetarian available), and well run ship! I would definitely recommend them and would love to dive with them again. Joe (the owner) was very accommodating and helpful and did his best to ensure everyone had a good experience."

"Learned to dive (PADI Open Water) with SeaBees - brilliant local instructor (Dokmai "Born" Chada). 1st class equipment, boats, instructors and local knowledge. Courses include PADI and SSI through to Tech and Instructor diving. Going back March '09 to learn more. Tried the 6-day liveaboard to the Similans with SeaBees. No big fish, but superb diving.

We dove Hin Daeng, and another trip to Hin Rok. We hope to make it back next year. We are very sorry to hear about the loss at Princess Divers on Phi Phi. Our hearts go out to the families involved.

"We would like to let everyone know what happened on the day of the tidal wave. Both the West and East coasts of Ko Lanta were hit by seven big waves on 26th December (2004) at around 10.30am. Two of the waves were very big, and it was these two that caused most of the damage to the island. Here at Narima, the largest wave came up over the swimming pool and sucked most of the water out. It also claimed all our brand new bar furniture and many of the sun-loungers. Thankfully this was all that was damaged. There was a mother and daughter swimming in the sea, but they realized something was wrong when the water first started to recede and were able to run to safety before the wave came in. Narima is functioning normally now (with a few missing items from the menu!) and the good news is that the beach now has lots of sand again!

Tthe Similans and Southern islands were largely unaffected by the calamity. "

"I think this is the best dive center I ever dived with. They give all the information you want: thay do a very professional briefing and tell you exactly what are you going see, where to go, where the sea horse is, where the ghost pipe fish is, etc. After you come out of the water they also do a good debriefing - telling you everything you saw. I can only say this is the best dive center I've ever used. "

"Brilliant place to dive, very informative and helpful staff. The speedboat is very cool! Breakfast and lunch were served on a deck at the back of the centre and we all just chilled out and chatted after we returned. Also, very environmentally friendly with specific eco briefing on the boat and information available throughout the dive centre about their projects. Great value for money, had breakfast and lunch and a free beer at the dive centre, fruits and amazing Thai snacks on the boat. Better than other places, very friendly atmosphere, professional staff, very safety conscious. I would definitely recommend these guys "

"I dove with them for 4 days- DMs and instructors were friendly, but somewhat rushed on the dives. The owner, though, was absolutely a slimeball and would say anything to sell dives or equipment. I would not recommend this dive center at all - it was the only time in 4 months vacation in SE Asia where I felt like I was getting ripped off. However, if you are doing free diving, they are one of the few places in Thailand that offer it. Wish I had gone with Go Dive! (Across the street.) "

Reviews:

"I just finished my advanced diving with Thailand divers and had a wonderful experience - right from booking the course to receiving my new dive card. The whole process was easy enjoyable and very professional. The dive instruction was brilliant and I was lucky enough to have one-on-one for my course. I felt completely at ease and thought that the equipment was of a very high standard and made me feel very safe. The dive sites were interesting and varied and the boat rides out there were fun. Food was great, the boat crew really helpful and friendly. All in all - this dive team way surpassed my expectations and I would recommend and encourage anyone to go on a trip, dive or do some further training. "
Jenny Hall

"Diving with Thailand Divers was a very smooth, exciting and safe experience. The preparations, the boat and facilities, the dive master, the equipment, the dive site instructions were excellent - defintely worth the 10-15% extra price, compared to the less serious and less safe competition. Highly recommended. "
Michael, Denmark

"Hi Thailand Divers . I would like to give a big thank you to you all for the 5 star service. Thanks to Tony (manc) for taking the call and especially to Brian and Stephen for the time and patience on the open water course. Im sure they were glad it was finally over. I would like to return to this center in the future who knows maybe I will for some more fun. Had good night on the thu t'was a night to remember thanks guys appreceiated it. And Brian remember to send me some info for sites back here in scotland and a link to your facebook when you get a chance. Thank you all once again. "

"I went diving with Thailand Divers on a 4 day dive cruise after having completed the Enriched Air Diving course with Thailand Divers . The dive sites were spectacular, especially Richelieu Rock. Our instructor diver Chris showed us around to all the great sites to see and made this trip even more woderful. Many thanks to the Thailand Divers team for making my Thailand Diving Experience such a great one. "
Willem Hadders, Germany

"I recently obtained my PADI Licence with the Thailand Divers crew. My instructor for the three days was Chris ( aka Mr Cruise! ) Chris made everything so easy and explained every little detail to us so clearly! I found him and the staff at Thailand Divers so professional and they made my diving experience so amazing! Had so much fun for the the three days, but the most important thing was the safety and Chris ensured that everything we did was safe, which it was!! Chris and the lads from Thailand Divers are sound top lads,and am heading back in November to do my advanced with them! Chris thanks again for being patient and making it the best experience i've ever had! Will give you an email when I'm heading back to Phuket,take care mate, AWESOME!!! "

"I was in Phuket last week and i did my PADI open water course with Phil. Thank you Phil for the extra time you spent with me to enable me to complete the course. I had a great time with you all at Thailand Divers. I look forward to coming back and diving with you again. I am new to diving but my experience with Thailand Divers was brilliant. I would recommend this company to anybody looking to learn how to dive. "
Peter Clarke

"I recently went diving with Thailand Divers . I have been diving for years now all around the world and this has to be one of the best diving companies I have been with. They had a brand new shop, classrooms, equipment and boats. This is due to the Tsunami and they lost everything as they are located on the beach in Patong. I went there to see if the Tsunami had affected the reefs and I am pleased to say they are beautiful and untouched.
Their new boat had everything you would ever want on a day trip boat. Showers, towels, bar, music and more. The best thing for Thailand was that there were no hidden costs as everything was included in the cost of the trip, lots of great food and all drinks. Usually Thailand companies charge extra for these facilities. A very nice change.
Excellent value for money. I would recommend this company to anybody who has been diving for years or who is about to start."
Stuart

"What can i say...unbelievable location...the friendliest people I have met in my years experience of diving...I got a free t-shirt, free CD of my underwater pictures, free BBQ and met some amazing people with loads of advice (they even sorted me out with accommodation)...what they say is true, Thailand Divers is not ONLY a dive school...it's a social life!

"Sheldon Hey, the Australian ex-pat who owns Dive the World Thailand answered all my questions and worked with me on an itinerary. He picked out the dive boats I used in Phuket and Phi Phi Island. He also arranged all my transfers (seven) in air conditioned taxis."
Bill Mashek

"If you are a first time visitor to Phuket and want to check out several dive operations, I recommend Dive-The-World.com. The folks there set me up with a hotel room in my price range and arranged a week of diving with various operators, based on the type of diving I wanted and my preferred locations on specific days. Less than $700 for the week for room and diving. Everything was handled via email prior to my arrival. I forgot my wetsuit on this trip. A Dive-The-World.com employee/DM drove out to my hotel that first night with a suit for the week. No charge for the service or the suit."

"Truly a disappointing experience. I would never dive with them again. Nice web site, but unfortunately it's all smoke and mirrors. I paid in advance for a dive master internship, and was forced to stop half way into it. They do not have the instructors, students, or facilities to provide a PADI dive master course. Dive shops like this reflect poorly on the entire dive community. "
Eduardo Couce

"Never ever advise any one to dive or study with pro-tech dive college. I did my rebreather course and payed in advanced more than 1500 US dollar for nothing, 8 days in classroom for theory and one day in swimming pool and decide to quit the course. All 8 days the instructor said all the time "you are not fit for rebreather and rebreather not for recreational diving". They pushing the students to quit the course. There was me and another student, I don't know him also quit in his last dive. "

"We highly recommend Sharkey Scuba - Karon Beach, Phuket, Thailand. If you are traveling to Thailand, you have to dive with Iain, Oui, and Max of Sharkey Scuba. They will take you to the best dive sites, from the Similians, to Phi Phi. My complete family (myself, my spouse, and three sons) have trained with Sharkey and received Open Water thru Advanced and Rescue Diver ratings. Sharkey is a family run operation that puts safety first, pays attention to all the details, custom tailors dives, and trips, to your specific needs and desires. Iain, Oui, and Max love the sea, they know where to go, and they take good care of the enviroment. They dive in a safe, relaxed, manner that allows you to maximize bottom time and get the most for your money. My three sons (ages 17-12) are budding Marine Biologists mainly due to their positive and motivating experiences with Iain, Oui, and Max, of Sharkey Scuba. "

"This is surely the best liveaboard boat I have been on, Colona VI. Comfortable cabins, with aircon and your own toilet and shower. The staff assistance was just wonderful. The Divemasters, Mark and Raoul, were I think the best divemasters I've ever dived with. They were great fun and very well educated in the diving area, which was the Similans amd Hin Daeng / Hin Munag. Highly recommended. They also have another boat coming out soon, Nautica. We have just booked another trip for March. Just great! Excellent value for money and the diving much better than Australia (GBR) or the Red Sea. "

"We got really spoiled from the relaxed atmosphere in their professionally run dive centres. The incredible dive and office staff gave us detailed Information how to use our dive vacation effectively. Located in Katathani at Kata Noi Beach we had some good Beach dives and our AOWC with their highly qualified Instructors made this dive experience unforgettable. The brand new equipment, the good equipped day boat and the very helpful crew ensured safety diving. Everything was well organised and we only can recommend this PADI 5 star IDC center to all Thailand travellers. "

"Excellent dive company. I did both my advanced open water and rescue diver courses with Dive Asia and was very impressed. They are well organized, professional and very friendly. Their day trip boat, the MV Dive Asia, is excellent. I would highly recommend them for fun diving or instruction. "

"I concur fully with John Gerwin's comments.Very professional and friendly. Safety first! For a fair amount you can buy a DVD from your trip. I used them for many years to my satisfaction.

Reviews:

"It's not Super Divers fault but their website states that they don't have more than 4 divers per instructor, which is misleading because you think that you're on a boat with minimal people. BUT! Many local dive shops have their customers on the same boat. You walk down 3 steps with fins on and the boats crew tells you to hurry up. Given the boat needs to jettison the divers cause it's not anchored, but some help on the exit is needed. They do help with donning your gear and giving you a hand at the aft exit platform but no help getting out of the water except throwing a rope with a bouy, they do pull you towards the boat and take your fins. So you climb outta the water with your scuba gear. The reviews about the diving are from first timers. I'm a dive master and if you want a good experience then a live aboard is best. "
