“An experience that should not be missed on any trip through Phuket!! Easy Air conditioned transfer from hotels, a seamless meet up & boat ride out to the island, and best of all, an incredible experience once you’re there!! Oody my guide felt more like a friend than an instructor, but gave clear direct instructions. I was terrified going in, but loved scuba diving because Oody provided such great direction!! The pics & videos of the beautiful dive were worth it. Could not possibly recommend more!!”
