Our family of five had another great dive holiday with Searobin on Koh Samui. We tried scuba-diving for the first time last year and enjoyed it so much, we went back! Once again we were superbly looked after by Ron and his team. Two fun divers, one advanced scuba, one new open water diver, one upgrading from junior scuba -... More

I just took the PADI Open water Course at the Searobin Diving Center and have to say I really enjoyed it. The 3 days were very good organized and I have to say a special thanks to the Belgian instructor, Oli, who really did a fantastic job, teaching us everything from A to Z about diving. More

The manager Ron informed me about dive courses and dive sites around Koh Samui. He and his team have been extremely friendly and professional. As I was still hesitating he offered me a free trial dive in the... More

The course took me just about 3 days to complete is probably the most fun new thing I have done in this year. Got to get back to Samui this... More

My friend who is an Advanced PADI diver found Searobin Padi Dive Centre through Trip Advisor. She read the reviews and thought that the dive centre looked great! And it was! I had an awesome dive experience with Tao, my instructor. He is a really good instructor and very experienced. He was able to handle a couple of panic attacks... More

I booked a holiday through Thomas Cook to the Imperial Boathouse on Choeng Mon Beach on the strength of them having a PADI school in the hotel, but then after contacting the hotel found they had turned this into a Kid Club. Looking on the interweb I found that Searobin were located on the same beach & only about a... More

We found searobin on trip advisor. We booked the package to Koh Tao just 3 days in advance. They were very flexible and provided a very good service. The instructor is very friendly and helpful. We are very lucky to dive with them. We definitely recommend them. More

From the moment we arrived when Ron 'the boss' met us personally from our courtesy airport transfer to the moment we left this beautiful island we were looked after so well by Searobin. Our instructor Eric's professionalism and care led us all to complete our PADI Open Water... More
