Its difficult to know where to start... Is it with the excellence in training, friendliness of staff, helpfulness of staff, awesome dive sites.. Having just returned from a fabulous trip in Phuket the highlight was gaining my open water and advanced scuba tickets with the wonderful people at Phuket Scuba Club. Kevin and Chantal are wonderful people who know the... More

Thank you so much for the lovely review. It was tremendous meeting you and we enjoyed watching you become a more than competent scuba diver. Your enthusiasm was very gratifying. Looking forward to seeing you again and to meeting your children. A very warm regards from all at the club. More

OK.....so I'm a fan of PSC (3 reviews). Found them on Tripadviser over 4 years ago and 3 days ago completed the Padi Rescue Cert with them. Reflecting on the course, day trips and beach dives over the last week I realised that the club continues to evolve for the better of thier guests (more fun) while maintaining strict training...

My two sons (13 & 16) and I greatly enjoyed to complete the PADI Open Water Diver course at the Phuket Scuba Club in April 2012 ; the team was very nice, relaxed and professional at the same time, and our personal instructor Alexia was especially great to achieve this fine balance ; we started our first dives from the...

Everyone worries about snorkelling, and whilst not a scuba addict, we find that heading to Phuket Scuba club at the south end of Karon Beach gives you the access to some lovely sights underwater with a snorkel . . . they will hire out the gear and give helpful advice on what there is to see on the home reef....

we read about the little shop on Karon beach on TA, so we went along to hire some snorkelling stuff, as we love snorkelling off the beach. WOW! Lovely people, lovely snorkelling. Glad we went! More

My partner and I got our Open Water PADI certification with Phil over a four day period. All the instructors are laid back ; however, they make sure you know how to do everything for your diving. The Beach at Karon South is so picturesque and being underwater just adds to the magic. I would recommend these guys anyday. Thanks... More

My daughter and I (12y) are diving enthusiasts from Sweden and have become very good friends with Kevan, Chantal and the rest of the staff at Phuket Scuba Club. And this time, they were as friendly and professional as always! Simply world class. This time we spent our first week in Kata Beach diving from the beach and doing daytrips... More

Phuket Scuba Club were amazing throughout my stay in Phuket, so much that I ended up diving and spending more time underwater than I had anticipated. From my first refresher dive off the shore to the 3day/2day Similian Islands boat trip organised and luxury day trips, the club provided me with endless information, support and the best instructors that I...

I contacted Chantal, part owner of Phuket Scuba Club and a TripAdvisor travel expert, about non-dive related questions. Not only did she provide me with local contact numbers that I couldn’t find on the internet, when I arrived, even though I was not diving, she and Kevin graciously included me in the club, inviting me to join them for both...
