Reviews from Google

Amazing Dive Experience to Sail Rock with Discovery Divers! My daughter and I had an absolutely fantastic time diving with Discovery Divers to Sail Rock. From start to finish, the entire experience was super well-organized. The pick-up was prompt, checking in was seamless, and the briefings were clear and comprehensive. Our dive master was amazing, truly focused on ensuring we had a great experience both in and out of the water. And wow, what can I say about Sail Rock? It's an incredible dive site, absolutely packed with marine life – a truly unforgettable dive! The travel to and from the site was comfortable, and the lunch provided was delicious. We were also impressed by the international team on board; it was great to have options for communication in English, Chinese, French, and Thai. I would definitely dive with Discovery Divers again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top-notch diving adventure in Koh Samui!

Very friendly, experienced, multilingual and professional staff who will look after you very well. Large choice of rental equipment in good condition. Getting to the dive sites is a fair hike on the boat as they are not in Koh Samui but closer to and around Koh Tao. "Sail Rock", the most famous dive site in the area, takes about 50 mins on their speed boat, while Chumpon Pinnacle takes 90 min. So be prepared for a bit of a journey back and forth which is also reflected in the price for diving off Koh Samui. But if you go diving while on Koh Samui, this is the dive shop to do it with! I spent 4 fabulous days with them, and managed to see a whale shark on day 3, yeehaa! This is the 4th time i have been diving with Discovery Divers over the years and on 3 out of the 4 managed to see a whale shark,....soooo happy! ;-)

Me and my boyfriend did a two dives day trip. He had never dived before, so he went with the Discover Scuba Diving course. Our instructor Fischer/Fisher was very friendly and professional. Very friendly staff in general. Good included lunch and included soft drinks. The equipment seemed quite new and well maintained. If we had more free days for diving, we would have gone with them again.
