Great family dive in Nai Yang (Phuket)

Came with the family (me, partner, two certified teenager divers) for the two-dives half day option. We had already dived with them a couple of years ago and had a great time so decided to come back here. AMAZING. We booked a second day of the same rightaway :) We dived with Tiin an day 1 and with Andy on day 2, all four times were great, the sites are incredible, visibility at least 20 meters, and we saw many different hard and soft corals, lots of fishes (incl barracudas), sponges, crabs, and more. Both Tiin and Andy were fun but safe at all times and Michael at the office kept things easy and efficient. Prices are comparable to others in the region but their offer is many times better throughout. I highly recommend and we will be back here for sure!

Operator response

Hi Cecilia, thank you so much for your trust and for choosing to dive with us again — that truly means a lot to us ❤️🐠 We’re really happy you and your family had such a great time together in the water. Sharing these moments as a family is something very special, and we’re glad we could be part of it 💙 Looking forward to many more dives with you in the future! 🐠🌴 Best regards Michael, Tiin & our amazing crew ❤️🐠

The best AGAIN!!

Went back to Paradise Diving after doing my open water qualification with them in 2024. Once again, Micha and Tiin were amazing, so much love for them and we had the time of our lives. Did 4 half day tours, massive thanks to Andy, who was incredible. Conditions were fantastic and we got to swim with a turtle!! Boat trips were great, never overcrowded and the crew were fantastic with helping with kit. Many thanks to all of them, we will absolutely be back !!

Operator response

Hi Lara, thank you so much for coming back to us — that really means a lot ❤️🐠 We’re so happy you had such an amazing time again and could just enjoy being out on the water. Your kind words for Andy mean a lot — we’ll make sure to pass them on 😊 Can’t wait to have you back with us for more adventures 🐢❤️ Best regards Michael, Tiin & our amazing crew ❤️🐠

A Turtle-y Brilliant Christmas Eve

My husband and I did a Christmas Eve dive with Paradise Diving/SeaBees and could not have had a better time! It was a brilliant and truly memorable morning of diving, our dive masters Matt and Julia were incredible and the santa hats provided by Tiin put everyone in a happy, relaxed and festive place. We even got to see a Turtle on our second dive which was the perfect Christmas gift. Thank you to all the team - keep doing what you're doing and hope to see you again next time we are in Phuket!

Operator response

Thank you so much Holly! It was agreed pleasure to dive with your family and to show them our lovely reef ! You made our Christmas special indeed, hope to see you next time again ! Your Paradise Diving Team

Class act

This was my third dive operator on this trip to Phuket, and they were head and shoulders above the others. Responsive, well organized, nice gear in great shape, efficient diving, longer bottom times (1hr), reasonable pricing, good guide to diver ratio, credit card without surcharge, help with transportation, great crew (whisk your gear away and it magically appears for the next dive - impressive on a longtail! Plus, they put your fins on for you). Very experienced guides/instructors. I'm unclear the relationship between Sea Bees and Paradise (I booked through the Paradise website but the location is Sea Bees), but for this location, regardless of which brand you came to found it, you can't go wrong.

Operator response

Hi there, thank you so much for your detailed and thoughtful feedback — this truly means a lot to us ❤️🐠 We’re really happy you felt the difference and could just enjoy the diving without worries. Our team puts a lot of heart into making things run smoothly, so it’s wonderful to hear that it made your experience special 💙 Regarding Sea Bees & Paradise: we work closely together here in Nai Yang and share the same team, standards, and passion — so you’re in the same hands either way 😊 We’d love to welcome you back anytime 🐠❤️ All the best, Michael, Tiin & our amazing crew

great experience

great diving experience at koh waeo, which is something like the house reef for see bees/paradise divers in nai yang. a shallow reef with great diverse sea life, just a short boat ride from the dive center, this made a great opportunity to get back into diving after two years without. the dive center itself has just reopened in october after having been closed due to the pandemic and the team seems really happy to get back in the water. much of the equipment is new, everything is kept in great condition. the owners run a tight operation, we felt in very good hands throughout the trip.

Great diving experience with awesome Instructors!

We had a great time with Tiin and Michael. Starting with a refresh dive to get into diving after a few years. We took 2 trips to Koh Waeo and 1 Trip to the Wreck (Tin Lizzy) and Stone Coral garden. The dive spots for half day trips are really quick to reach, so we had a short trip on speedboat or longtail. The divesites are really nice and interesting and suited as well for beginners as for experienced divers. Boat: Speedboat or Longtail Boat for the Half day trip. Excellent Service and boat crew. Water and fruit is provided for the trips and the crew shared some of their lunch with us :) Had a great time on all Boats. The trip starts directly from the beach in front of the ressort/dive base, so no long trips to the pier. Equipment: Top Quality, Full Service with tank change on boat. All items in a good shape and regularly inspected and serviced. Locations: Easy to reach dive sites. There is a lot to see, even in shallow deepths but as well in deeper regions. Beautiful rock formations, corals and tons of fish! Even got to see several cuttlefish. Instructors: Best diving experience ever. Got to know, what "fun dive" means. The preparation (Refresh dive) and briefing, as well as the whole time under water we felt completely comfortable. The dives were relaxing, there was time to explore all the corals and rocks with caves. Some fun activities like flips and posing for pictures were also done, so that these dives were some of the best dives i have ever done! Tiin and Michael create a very comfortable atmosphere and have a great crew, who are very helpful and customer orientated. We felt a very warm welcome, a great atmosphere even between the trips. We just had a great time there. If you feel uncertain or have struggled with diving before, you should give those guys a chance to take all your worries away and experience a great diving experience. We will definitely come back!!

Again fantastic expierience. Will definately come again!

Revisited Paradise Diving Asia and crew again in March 2020 as also in the years before. This is always the last stop in our vacation in Thailand after also diving in other spots with different diving companies. Again diving in Nai Yang was the highlight of our trip. - superb professional and friendly crew - good dive sites (even when diving here for the 5th time I always see something new) - gear is very well taken care of wheather it is your own or the companies My son took the nitrox course so we could dive with nitrox, but you can take all SSI courses as far as I know. We also took an awesome night dive with a marine biologist with uv-equipment. As we did photographs and videos the relaxed atmosphere and cool dive guides helped a lot.

With a friend who had not dived for several years they took especial care and helped him to refreshen his skills. The dive sites atound Nai Yang are reachable in around 30 Minutes with their own speedboat so you will spend half a day for two dives instead of a full day the you normally would with other sites. Highly recommended for families or couples where not everybody is diving as they also offer sties where you can dive and snorkel at the same time. As always we felt very safe and well cared for. Coral and marine life have actually improved here the last year's so it does not always have to be the Similans, also their dive sites are less crowded as to the point that we sometimes were the only boat at the divesite. Thank you very much! We'll be back! The very best regards Niko, Guido and Sandrina care and helped him to refreshen his skills.

Great times

I had an amazing time with Sea Bees diving. Although I was running a bit late, they were able to set me up quickly to have a great and memorable dive! I only wish they had underwater cameras to capture Moments for people like myself who forgot their camera at home! I would definitely recommend them!!

So pleased we returned - the dive sites have really improved.

We have dived here many times over the years, with various dive operations. Sea Bees (as they are known locally) are by far the best by any measure - staff, skill level, dive boat and they know how to make diving fun. The diving at Koh Waeo is now much improved, the marine life is now returning to its former beauty and the coral is growing again. We saw great shoals of colourful fish on every dive, blue spotted rays, cuttlefish and the occasional turtle too. Boat diving is only as good as the people you dive with. The everpresent American couple who even pop up in Wat's Bar in the evenings are a lot of fun. They have some great local doveing tales. Until we did the wreck dive on the Tin Lizzy we never realised what a navigation expert Tiin was. I now understand why locally they refer to this dive site as the Tiin Mine. We can't forget Michael (the Defender) - who keeps everything at peak efficiency so there is no hanging around the boat always leaves on time. His English is so good we couldn't believe he was German, until we remembered the efficiency. All the other staff too, Sandra and Jashin, the weird Swiss guy all make this a very special dive operation which is highly recommended. See you all again in February.
