First of: I have been to some great places for diving, such as Maldives, Mexico, Belize, Egypt. Having said that, I have never come across so many schools of fishes up close, as I have on Sail Rock together with Alain as my dive guide! I was very lucky to be the only diver on that day (Dec25th), so Alain and I got to enjoy two very very relaxed Nitrox dives between 8-26m (AOWD). We also got lucky with good visibility of around 20m above 12-15m, whereas below 15m you could see the thermocline and below that visibility dropped to 2m! Apparently visibility is always a big gamble in the gulf of Thailand, due to its shallow overall depth of ~50m - so bad weather/currents etc always directly impact visibility! We saw loads of Barracudas really close and a host of other fish life in big schools (-> at times you could hardly see the water, so many fish were there). Alain was a great guide and a very relaxed, secure diver, looking out for me before and during the dive. After a few minutes into the first dive, it was clear that we got along very well and started to have a lot of fun just going wherever we wanted. Sometimes you just follow the dive guide blindly, but Alain was happy to go wherever I asked or pointed without hesitation - going through a tunnel a couple of times, hanging out in the current, watching the barracudas for minutes etc :) I can highly recommend France Plongee and Alain!!! Thanks for the two awesome dives and the good company under water :)…

Amazing PADI Open Water with Fred. Fred was not only an excellent teacher but he was also a very safe, listening and funny person. I strongly recommend this diving center. They are serious, flexible according to the client level and pace of learning. Material is very good recent. Excellent experience and they can make it in French or English.…

Joined the France Plongée team for a trip to Sail Rock and do my Nitrox certification. Everything was well organized and they have new equipment! They even let me use my own Suunto wireless pod on their first stage. Special thanks to Jean-Bastien for educating me on oxygen en nitrogen levels :-) Recommended! …
