I had great experience diving with the Nemo Crew.I learned so much in 3 days,and i was blown away by the wonderful underwater world at the similan islands.I had only 8 dives before the trip and didn‘t know that much about diving,to be honest.Now i feel really safe and comfortable with all equipment and processes.Thanks again to my instructor phoebe!i felt safe and everything was profressional,thai staff made sure everything was on point and ready to use,always making fun with their guests and kind of loosen the atmosphere a bit.We were served with at least 3 meals a day,all good and always enough for a second plate,plus snacks,fruits and water for free-also cool that they wanted you to take one bottle,empty it and refill it at the station saving plastic,thumbs up.There is only one „negative“ thing,the generator runs all night ro make sure ac and power is available all the time,which made me not sleep that well,even with earplugs.But i was nearly the only one who had problems,so might be also that new situation sleeping on a boat.Thanks to conny for the warm welcome,whole diving crew and thai staff for the great times!

See you again

Hello Theodor Thank you very much for your time to write your review here for sharing your experiences with us on our M/V Nemo 1 with all the others. We are so happy you enjoyed so much on your trip and all the positiv points we are happy to give it over to our whole team. Yes we know, the noice of the generator during the night is not so nicely but it's more than is seems. There is not more than 60 DB in the cabins and this is comparable to a normal conversation. But yes, mostly it's the unusual sleep on the boat, the light rocking and now this monotonous hum from the generator. Most people don't sleep very well the first night but from the second mostly much better. We wish you a good time, take care and hope to see you once again here in Khao Lak and on board of Nemo 1. Best regards from the whole KLFD-Team

After a very long time I did my first dive experiences with the Khao Lak Fun Divers and it was really perfect. Carmen Caselli took great care of us (we were four OWD scholars): she did a detailled briefing before every dive, took much time and was responsive to everybody of our group.

But not only that Carmen is a very good dive master, the whole dive school is organized in a very professional way with well maintained equipment and a very lovely team.

Me and my boyfriend really enjoyed our stay at Khao Lak Fun Divers and can only recommend to experience it! Special thanks to Conny, Gallus, Ivan, Teuy, Carmen, Patrick and Claudia for the time that we could spend together.

When you are diving with Fun Divers everything is hassle free. I hadn't been diving for many years as I was tired of all the hassle on the boats and with the gear before and after actually beeing in the water. After having a long chat with Conny, who is the soul of the Company and at the Office most of the time in the day, I decided to give it another try.

It is hard to put in words how amazing it felt to be in the water again after such a long time. The Similans and Koh Bon are just amazing. Gallus, the director and head instructor of the Fun Divers, took me by the hand and around him you cannot help but feeling at eaze, relaxed and confident. I was even rewarded by finally meeting the amazing Mantas. Pure happiness!!

I can only recommend the Khao Lak Fun Divers. If in Khao Lak don't go to any other Company.

Thank you for everything

My wife and I booked a 3 day 2 night live aboard not with fun dive but ended up with them. Everything was great, boat, food, crew, cabin equipment BUT we were there to dive and sadly our dive master Ivan was by far the worst I have ever met. Because of him my wife only dived twice out of 10 dives and on one dive when he was supposed to be my buddy I got detached from the group in a drift and he didn't even notice. Add to that that when the speed boat left taking people back to Khao lak while we were waving them of he made a crude ( F off ) gesture to the boat and on an evening dive while other group were briefing for their dive he was still sleeping.
Don't get me wrong other than Ivan the boat and crew were good but our holiday was ruined by one man.

We did a 2-day / 1-night trip with the MV Nemo 1 ina double bunk as our first real diving trip ever after previously being certified. The folks at Khao Lak Fun Divers were incredible every step of the way. The divemasters helped put us new divers at ease and were great with tips and help with our diving beyond just guiding us through all the amazing sites.

The Thai staff on the boat were fantastic as well. Food was plentiful and quite good and the staff helping with getting in and out of the water anticipated all of our needs before we even knew we needed them.

Only regret is that we didn't have more time to dive even longer!

I did my 4 days OWD course with Khao Lak Fun Divers. It was just AMAZING. Gallus, the instructor took really care about us and explained everything well. So we passed the theoretical and the practical part in the pool very good, within the first two days. Then we went to the Similan Islands by Speedboat for an overnight stay at the big boat. The atmosphere on the big boat was lovely and we enjoyed great service and good food. We had 4 perfect 'OWD dives' and two 'fun dives'. Every dive was a great experience, beautiful and lot of fun.

I really recommend the Khao Lak Fun Divers. Gallus and Conny are of very good nature and taking care about everything and everybody. The other dive guides are very good experienced, friendly and funny. The equipment and the office is well maintained.

Thank you and hope to see you soon again my 'little Khao Lak family' =) LG, Andrea

Amazing team here at Khao Lak Fun Divers!! Carmen was our guide and Gallus was accompanying us taking some pictures and finding cool stuff. What an amazing dive site, and specially made so enjoyable by Carmen and Gallus. The only longtail boat with a toilet and fresh water shower! So well organized, comfortable, professional plus great food, and above all, great knowledge!! Will definitely come back to them next time in Khao Lak!!

Have booked my 2D1N liveaboard through another party, but was glad to have been with khaolak fun divers! The boat may not be the biggest or most luxurious around, but the service crew and DMs were great! Food wasnt the widest spread I ever had but its surely enough to fill tummies. Will consider diving with them again!

Hello and thank you very much for your review about your stay on our M/V Nemo 1. We are always happy to give our excelent service also to customers of our agent. Yes of course we know, there are more comfortable and luxurious boats around but there is also the price much more luxurious. We try to come close to all these luxury boats at least with our service and as you wrote, we come close to this standard :-) Regarding the food, please do not forget with what modest means and facilities as well as the very limited space in the galley, the cook serves up a menu with 4 different plates each time. But the most important thing is still ... it always tastes absolutly great, doesn't it? All the best for you, take care and have a great time. Your KLFD-Team

Just got back from a 3 day 2 night trip to the Similan Islands.
Business is very organised and punctual.
Instructors / guides are very friendly patient and encouraging. I think my diving skills improved enormously.i also completed my nitrox certification.
The boat staff were really friendly and helpful - nothing was too much for them down to help on putting on my fins.
Food was delicious and ample.
Diving was superb and I saw a huge variety of fish etc.
If you're looking for a dive centre that specialises in Europeans, this is the best one I know of in Khoa Lak.
Cant wait to come back. Thanks for everything.
