I made my PADI OWD with Khao Lak Scuba Adventures and i was very satisfied. The Shop offers free Wifi, free coffee and the possibility to hang out in front of the shop with other divers. The prices are usual in the market but you have to pay 3% extra charge in Thailand if you pay with creditcard. Thanks god... More

I am not an experienced diver - I don't have a licence but have done one "discover" scuba dive in Malaysia. Did another one with this company in khao lak as a day trip to the similan islands. I went with one friend who is an advanced diver and two friends who just did snorkeling. The company was excellent -... More

I am an avid diver and looked for a good company to arrange a day trip to Similan. I chose scuba adventures because of the good reviews and also because when I walked in the staff were very friendly and answered all my questions. While Similan islands diving is not the best in the world ( red sea is much... More

It was once great experience :). I really loved the Liveaboard with KSA. I enjoy every single dive that we made. All is like what they planned. Very well organised, briefing, safety, anything that you can think of. And our boat was the luckiest I guess. Sunshine all the 4 days 4 nites trip. The Manta Queen I trip #22.... More

The Khao Lak Scuba Adventures are well organized. The reseller network was well in place, the materials I saw at the Phi Phi dive center were quite comprehensive, the discount table well defined (kudos for the professional's discount!), so I jumped in on the experience. I wasn’t to be disappointed. While walking around Khao Lak I had the chance to... More

I've been on a few liveaboards before so I feel that I know how to compare them. KSA has three boats: Manta Queen 1 and 2 do 4 day trips out to the Similan Islands, including Richelieu Rock. MQ3 only travels around the Similan, with passengers arriving a leaving by speed boat to stay for as many days as they'd... More

Went on a 4-night/4-day liveaboard with KSA and it was excellent! A total of 14 dives over the four days; four dives on each of the first three days including a sunset/night dive at the end of each day. Great guides with close attenuation to safety. Basic accommodation and good food. Overall a great holiday!
