These are some questions you may have,

I believe they are called Frequently Asked Questions.

We are awesome, that's why! No but in all seriousness, it's because we love what we do. Every dive school we work with has been personally checked by our team. That means we know the team, we know the managers who run the show and we've also personally been diving with them or worked for them.

We also make sure safety is adhered to in everyway. It goes without saying but we will mention it. We want you to be comfortable and safe during this new adventure.

We also check the vibe of the school and make sure that also matches. (Insert Namaste gif here)

By having access to multiple dive schools we can help meet everyone's need when it comes to things such as language requirements, certification agency choice and more options for dive sites. Availability becomes easier which means if you name a date, there is a greater chance that we will get you the one that works for you.

Not at all! We aren't trying to be sneaky and charge people extra, we have agreements with the dive schools to get paid by them not you! That's how we afford our fancy website and weekly dinners. We have no hidden fees at all. Any extra charges like marine park fees or national park fees (Thailand loves those) are always included in the price so you have no surprises.

Please don’t be sad. I was pretty tired when I wrote all this so maybe I missed it. OR it’s more likely that your question was so brilliant and amazing that I could never think of it. Chat with us!
