What divers say
Great experience with Tony! We had 2 really nice dives, saw many really cool things!
Quang, инструктор, проводил два погружения для меня. Я была первый раз. Немного боялась, но он спокойно всё объяснил, и мы постепенно провели погружение. Локация интересная — Madonna Rock.
베트남에서의 첫번째 펀다이빙. 좋은 가이딩과 많은 볼거리를 찾아준 가이드에게 감사드립니다. 기대했던것보다 좋았던 베트남 첫 다이빙이었습니다.
Хочу выразить огромную благодарность инструктору Ярославу! Это настоящий профессионал своего дела. С самого начала он всё подробно объяснил, поддерживал и помог чувствовать себя спокойно и уверенно под водой.
Lần đầu tiên được trải nghiệm lặn biển và cảm giác ngoài mong đợi. Các anh nhân viên rất nhiệt tình và chuyên nghiệp, mình cảm thấy hoàn toàn an toàn.
Equipment is good. Safe. Staff are helpful. Fun dive.
Классный дайв-центр, забрали нас с острова, цены отличные. На лодке было много новичков, но у нас, дайверов с лицензией, был отдельный инструктор.
All the staff was super friendly. Highly recommended!

FAQ
For a Discover Scuba Diving experience, no — you only need to be comfortable in the water. For any certification course you must be able to swim: 200 metres unaided or 300 metres with mask, fins and snorkel, plus 10 minutes of floating or treading water.
After two or more dives in a single day you must wait a minimum of 18 hours before flying. Please plan your last diving day accordingly.
Hotel transfers within central Nha Trang, your PADI instructor or divemaster, marine park fees and boat insurance, full equipment rental, lunch, drinking water, tea, coffee and fresh fruit, plus a fresh-water shower, WC and changing facilities on the boat.
A maximum of three certified divers per PADI Instructor or Divemaster on fun dives, and a maximum of two students per instructor on courses (up to four on request). Quality over quantity is the whole point.
Absolutely. We run a snorkelling programme on the same boat, at the same sites, on the same day. There are no age restrictions on snorkelling as long as you can swim with our guide.
Generally February to October, with April to October the sweet spot: calm seas, better visibility and water at 26–28 °C. Van Phong Bay is best April to September; Phu Quoc runs the opposite season, November to April.
