Dive Team – Our Blue View Family!
Blue View Dive Team have been working and diving in Phi Phi for over 15 years, collectively with more than 10,000 dives in our Local Dive Sites. We have returning and long term instructors each season so know all of the dive sites and island intimately!
Caroline is the best trainer anyone can get
We had the best experience while scuba diving at Phi Phi islands and it was all because of our trainer Caroline and her dive team. I was a little nervous initially but she took extremely good care of us. She even showed us some of the best marvels under the oceans. The experience has been extremely overwhelming for me and I can’t wait for my next dive. I would highly recommend Blue View Divers

Alexandra
(PADI OWSI # 292281)
Alexandra is from Alberta, Canada and was a gift from our friends at Free and Easy Traveler, when she joined our team in 2010. Alex decided that one trip to Phi Phi Island just wasn’t enough and came back for more. She has inherited the best qualities from our instructor dive team over the years, making her a fantastic instructor. Having learned to dive in cold water in Canada, Alex decided to teach diving in warmer climates! These days Alex is happily married living in Vally View, Canada although her input into Blue View is still felt today.
