Get the snorkeling tour. Small group (me and my wife as snorkelers and four divers - three instructor - two for divers and one for snorkelers and three of boat crew) on a well equipped big boat with everything you need (even clean western restrooms and freshwater showers). Good lunch after first (rice, vegetables and chicken, so even if you're a vegetarian you have your option).
Visibility was not perfect about 15m or less but anyway it's worth it.
There were two stops for about an hour on two nice spots without any other groups.
So it's really well organized and planned little trip (10:00 to 15:00), with no rush, with lot of comfort (beanbags on a front deck is awesome).
Thank you a lot, hope to meet you again!

Having run my own dive centre for many years I'm fairly particular who I dive with when on vacation. I received a warm welcome when I signed up for some fun dives with the team at Tarutao and right from the start I knew it was a well-run dive centre with a friendly atmosphere. They have only recently set up on Koh Lipe with brand new equipment and a large boat which is perfectly set up for diving. The instructors and divemasters are multi-national and speak several languages. I had a great time diving with them and they deserve to do well. Big thanks to Ditlev and his team. We'll be back next year!

If you are ever deciding to dive w/ Tarutao Divers - DO IT! You are equipped on the boat saving time and after the dive, the team treat you as family. Go back to the dive shack, log your dive, have a beer and create some memorable memories with the instructors and team. I will definitely be sure to go back and I HIGHLY RECCOMEND anyone reading this to do this as well. AMAZING SERVICE, AMAZING PEOPLE, AMAZING TEAM!!!

In my opinion, the best diving center on Koh Lipe.
Center of walking street, awesome personalities both the instructors and staff in general. Everything very smooth, and great boats with good food and facilities.
Overall an excellent experience - can only get the best recommendations, and will definetely come back to these guys soon again.

I’ve been on 2 dives with Tatutao and I highly recommend the guys. Equipment is new and not worn out. Guys are very friendly, no problems at all. Caesar who was our guide was very professional. Highly recommended :)

Thanks to the great instuctors I completed my OWC and had alot of fun doing it! Great people, friendly and patient. Struggled abit the first day but talked it over with all of the instuctors and they all helped and made me find peace of mind so I could complete and enjoy scuba diving. A great team, new gear, awesome boat! I'll be back! Thanks Miek, Chacha, Simon, Adrian, Triny, Jiab, Morten and Ditlev.

Great diving experience also for families.
We went two times (so far) with them. We took our two daughters (6 &8) on a snorkelling trip, which was really great. They took enough time, showed us nice places that were not so crowded.
So we decided to make a refreshment and a bubble maker with our older one. Annemiek was perfect for our daughter, she was calm and our daughter loved diving with her.
And so did I.
We did some skills near the beach in shallow water.
We were small groups (actually it was just us three in a group), there was no hassle or stress. Just great.
The boat is very good, the equipment is well maintained and new.
The staff was very helpful and friendly!
They also serve great food.
I did app. 30 dives so far and have seen some diving companies. I‘d say, they were one of the best so far.

This is the first year of operation for this dive shop, I have dove with one of the dive leaders before so thought i would check them out. I dove 48 times from mid Jan to mid Feb/20. The boat "Destiny" is great large, comfortable and maintained. All the equipment BCDs, fins, masks, tanks are new. There are a few unique things about this company, they offer a nanny service on board , so couples can dive together and have their kids looked after, they have a reef clean up program each Monday with the diver collecting the most trash awarded a prize, you can rent the boat for a special event, I attended a wedding on the boat. They have 2 dive time per day, the morning dive is for fun divers and courses, the afternoon dive is for snorkelers and Try divers. This allows them to select the best sites for each activity. They have a greater range than any other boat on Lipe and are quicker than the other big boats so you are usually at the dive sites before others arrive. Lipe has some of the best diving around so if are headed there check out Tarutao Divers I will be back again next year.
