PADI DIVEMASTER REVIEW – Awesome staff and amazing diving!

I came to Phi Phi to do my rescue, EFR and divemaster course with blue view divers. They were so helpful when I was trying to plan my trip there over email, especially Caroline, with quick responses and loads of information!

All the staff there are awesome, and for this reason I really enjoyed doing my courses!

Diving off long tail boats is wicked and by far my favourite way to dive. Because they always have small groups, it’s a lot more personal and you get to know people. The lunch was amazing also!

Diving around Phi Phi has by far been my best yet, with good visibility and of course so much to see! I will definitely come back here to dive again!

Cheers to everybody at blue view for one of the best experiences and for making me a divemaster!
