In overall, I had awesome time during my stay in Tioman and I enjoyed the DSD course. Nice ambience with good food and bar around B&J Diving Centre. Shout out to one of the staff Hayati for easing my stay and my diving instructor Wendy for not giving up on me.

When we talk about Scuba diving, Padi comes to everyone's mind as an established entity with world class courses. B&J was a whole new level of having an ease booking process, great diving instructor, especially, Mok Tai Wah. Mok has great leadership skill, exceptional teaching capability. This comes from someone that has thalassophobia, Mok made me overcome my fear. B&J has great faciltiies, friendly staff, dive masters. Scuba Diving is my new hobby now, thanks to Mok and B&J. Stay awesome.…

The latter is also a good place to stay at, with well maintained quality rooms (though there are other cheaper options nearby if you are on a budget).…

Through the efforts of Reef Check Malaysia and this dive centre, Tioman Island is a spot of environmental hope amid the despair of the rest of Malaysia.

They recycle, there is filtered water available without having to buy plastic water bottles, and they work together to remove the rubbish that washed up from elsewhere (including massive ghost nets). The dive shop reports to reef Check Malaysia to help protect this beautiful island and the efforts have made a difference- the diving is good, there is still healthy reef left, and the fish populations are recovering. I definitely recommend diving with B&J if you dive because you love the ocean and want to protect it, because they practice what they preach. I was very impressed.…
