While it was our first time in Koh Samui, my wife (20 year NAUI Advanced) and I (30 year NAUI Dive Master) and now my son (2 year PADI Advanced) have dived at a number of locations around the world. My son and I did 9 dives in the 3 1/2 days we had available and enjoyed the quality of... More

As a gift to my husband, I took a three-day dive course at Dive Academy and received my PADI open-water certificate. I liked the professionalism of the instructor, the skill, and the fact that, unlike other dive companies we saw during our open-water dives, this school limits the number of students to teachers to a reasonable ratio. Mine was one-on-one.... More

I am an experienced (30 years ) Advanced Padi diver and can honestly say that this was the worst diving experience of my life. Having done research in advance I booked a dive to Sail rock with a view to booking more dives once I arrived in Koh Samui. The day before my first dive I was called by the... More

It was our first time in Koh Samui and these people really took care of us! We were both of us and our kid having some fun at Samui and we arranged for our advance open water diver certification before our arrival, and just by the way Sarah and Paul answered our questions by email we knew it was going...

My instructor for the course, Tom, made learning so easy and relaxed yet fun, especially the confined water component in the resort pool. Paul and Sarah just... More

The shop was quite over priced compared to shops in other dive destinations, particularly given the low cost of... More

Great dive operators and really went out of their way to help with local places to eat & hang out. Helped make our time on the island awesome!! No hesitation in sending anyone who visits to them again & again. I will be! More

If your looking for a dive company on Koh samui I can recommend the dive academy there a 1 st class outfit. Nothing is to much trouble for Paul & Sarah the guys that own the company. From e-mails before we came out to booking restaurants for us & helping me with my underwater proposal. These guys & there staff... More

We did 4 days of diving with The Dive Academy in August 2011. We had contacted them by e-mail before leaving the UK and they replied promptly and personally to our enquiries. We did 2 days of diving with Instructor Tom and the other two with Paul, (owner ,with wife Sarah, of the Dive Academy) and we thoroughly enjoyed it!... More
