Super nice guy who told us where to go and when not to go snorkelling, when we bought our snorkelling equipment at his shop.

My boyfriend and I did the discover scuba diving to sail rock and we had such an amazing day and so much joy. Jan is a great instructor giving immediately a lot of comfort and experience, so that we felt safely always. The destination sail rock is also highly recommendable. Hence, it was just perfect. Thanks again!!!…

We booked a scuba review and 2 "normal" dives with Chaloklum diving. Communication with Nick was very pleasant and even though our inquiry was very last minute he got everything organized with ease. The scuba review with Michi was very detailed and he took a lot of time reviewing the skills with us. Unfortunately, due to bad weather conditions, visibility was not great when we were there. Nick was very honest about it and recommended a day trip on a chartered longtail boat rather than a trip to Sail Rock, which turned out to be a good idea. The equipment is well maintained and all in all we had a nice dive experience despite of the bad weather conditions. Would definitely recommend!…

We returned to Chaloklum Diving this year, a lovely and trustworthy team and our favourite on Koh Phangan. They are fantastic at teaching and leading dives and they also care for the natural environment and do regular reef cleaning, picking up discarded nets and such. My husband did his Open Water course with them a few years ago and back then we did some nice dives around Sail Rock. Now we wanted to show our kids scuba diving and it was a fantastic day, they really enjoyed it. Here is my youngest daughter’s review: “So I started with a breifing about scuba diving and they told us about how the lower you get in the water, the more pressure so thats why your ears hurt and they also taught us the hand signals! Then I went and tryied/fitted our scuba gear on! After, I went into the water with our gear on and did some exercises like how to empty your mask and if your regulator is behind you, how to get it! Then I went into the sea with my instructor, Frank and we swam a little and he showed me how to deflate the air so you can go down and inflate the air so you could go up! Overall I think it was SUPER fun! -Emily😊”…

I did the PADI open water diving course and had an awesome time! Nick was very helpful and prompt in answering any and all questions pertaining to the course and Michi was the best instructor I could have hoped for: laid back, funny but serious about the rules and the essentials of diving. I felt super comfortable throughout the course and would really recommend these guys to anyone! Thank you both for the cool experience! 💕…
