Why go, and how to do it well

Based at Kata Beach in southern Phuket, this diving operation runs a full range of underwater experiences for visitors at every skill level — from first-time snorkelers and beginner divers to certified divers pursuing advanced qualifications. Beyond local reef dives, the outfit organizes day trips to premier sites including Phi Phi Island and multi-day liveaboard-style expeditions to the Similan Islands, giving guests access to some of the Andaman Sea's most celebrated dive locations.

Visitors can expect a structured, well-communicated experience from booking through to the dive itself. Instructors are noted for their patience and approachability with nervous or newly certified divers, and the team handles logistics — including timely pickups and thorough pre-dive briefings — with consistency. PADI certification courses, including Open Water and Advanced Open Water, are available for those looking to qualify or upgrade their certification during their stay. The operation functions as both a tour agency and a dive school, making it a practical one-stop option for underwater activities in the Karon and Kata area.

Reviews from Google

Look no further for an amazing diving experience. We had some days left before our flight and made a last minute decision to go fun diving. We had a lot of questions, as we just got our Open Water Certificate, but Dave and Benz answered everything very quickly via WhatsApp. Kan was an amazing guide during our 3 fun dives. She informed us very well about each diving spot and made sure to check our equipment together (since we are still very new). Underwater she checked up on us and helped searching for some fishes we really wanted to see. The boat was also very comfortable and the food very good. Thank you so much to the whole Phuket Dive Tours-Team. We had an incredible day 😊

We had an amazing 2-day Advanced Course in the Similan Islands. The diving spots were absolutely stunning, and the whole trip was organized perfectly. ​The staff on the boat were so helpful and friendly, and our instructor was professional and made the learning process fun and easy. We felt very safe and well-taken care of the entire time. ​If you’re looking for a great diving experience with beautiful views and a professional team, this is it. Can’t wait to come back!

Did my first ever dive with Phuket Dive Tours and I have to say they are a brilliant team! All incredibly helpful and friendly. Johan was exceptional! He was very patient and an excellent trainer! Made my sister and I feel so safe in the ocean and when learning in the pool. Highly recommend this dive center, especially if you are a beginner.
