Our PADI Dive Centre on Koh Phi Phi
Koh Phi Phi is an amazing place both above and under water therefore choosing the right PADI Dive Centre for you is important.
Professional, motivated, safe and fun!
I took the Open Water course with Nathalie and it was absolutely perfect. Nathalie is passionate about what she does, incredibly professional, puts a lot of enthusiasm and patience in teaching. She made me feel safe all the time and was always available to answer questions also go over things I didn’t understand. She showed me the equipment room at the dive centre and the compressor, explained carefully about their maintenance procedures and definitely felt 100% reliable. A good team!
