As a 1st time diver it's difficult to know who to choose, especially when there's as many dive schools as on koh Tao. We were recommended to go with roctopus as the dive groups are small and you get a lot of personal attention, which is really important when learning to dive. Myself, my boyfriend and our friend were in... More

Before I went here I spent some time talking with the other diving schools, but these guys gave the impression of being professional and helpful and it turned out to be completely true. The communication before and during dives was very good which for me was one of the most important things, I always felt safe in their hands during... More

I heard about this school from a girl on a bus in nepal, so as I jumped out of the taxi I really didnt know what to expect. Sammy was extremely welcoming and all the staff make you feel at home. I did two courses, my first had 4 people in it and the second had 2. SOOO much better... More

When I fell behind on my skills, the owner Will (ridiculously big & muscley but really a teddy bear) organised extra one-on-one dives for me. I can't imagine other... More

From my time there I ended up working with pretty much everyone in the shop and have high praise across the board. The owners, Will... More

After being harassed by touts on the boat for 2 hours we really wanted to find a good place to do our SSI open water. We checked out several different shops but found Roctopus to be the most genuine, friendliest and good value for money including the accommodation. We were promised a small group with a maximum of 4 people... More
