Diving Course in Krabi

A new and fantastic world opens up when you first strap on your diving gear and sink into the abyss for up to one hour at the time. It is truly an experience without comparison in every sense. First of all is the visual impression made by the colorful array of countless tropical fish and corals. Then there is the unimaginable silence beneath the surface of the sea, where the only sound you will hear is that of your own bubbles each time you breathe in the water. And finally there is the weightlessness, which gives you that special feeling of freedom and overall harmony with your surroundings.

Once you have received your PADI Open Water diving certificate, you will be able to experience new diving adventures all over the world.

Season:
Due of the rainy season, which starts at different times on the eastern and western coasts of Thailand, it is very important to take the time of year into consideration when deciding where to complete your diving course. As Krabi is located on the west coast, the best period is from October to April.

Please note!
Participating in diving and other activities is done at your own risk, so you may want to purchase travel insurance before leaving your home country. We recommend Gouda travel insurance, which covers diving at no extra charge, as long as you already have – or are acquiring a valid certificate.

Structure of the course
Days start at 8 or 9 am and will be finished late afternoon. The first two days will mostly be theory lessons, but also practical training in a swimming pool or in shallow sea water.The last two days will mostly be your 4 dives, but also the theory test. At day 4 you will get your last 2 dives, and after that, you will be a certified diver!

Important!
When you arrive in Thailand for the beginning of your dive course, you must complete a medical exam. If you suffer – or have suffered from asthma, hay fever or allergies, you must bring a doctor’s certificate stating that you are physically capable of withstanding the kind of strain that diving can cause.

Please take note that there are no doctors on Phi Phi Island. We recommend that you obtain a doctor’s certificate in advance (e.g. in Bangkok or Phuket) if you have the slightest health problem. Please keep in mind that your own health is at stake.
