Diving Course

It was so cool because you directly dive near koralls and this at your first diving session. Our teacher was perfect. I would do it directly again at this school. They are all happy and it looks like they have fun at work😇👍🏼

Diving and Snorkelling

My son did his PADI open water dive course aged 15. Instructor Zorro was excellent. I went snorkelling with my 12 year old daughter and saw so many sharks and turtles we actually started taking them for granted! Excellent and fun snorkelling guides. I’d recommend this place highly.

OW Course was an extraordinary experience!

Managed to acquire 2 certificates, one on normal open water diving, and one on advanced water diving. However, I couldn't have done it without my amazing instructor, Zarul. He was patient and careful in his teachings, and we easily understood the course because of it. The course was a breeze with him around! We were also lucky during the course to be able to find a whale shark during a dive! Recommending this company for anyone wanting to take their open water diving course.

Very recommended to have your diving with them

I have just finished my AOW course with Go Aquatic. My coach is On Jai who is a very patient and funny coach. With his clear instruction, my course finished with enjoyable view and experience under water. If I had to complete any speciality (in scuba diving) in Kota, I must find On Jai again! Very enjoyable experience!

Great, knowledgable divemasters - thoroughly enjoyed our course!

We had a great time learning our advanced course with Go Aquatic! All the staff were really friendly, boat was clean, water and lunch provided. We learnt a lot of new skills and were able to practice them during our adventure dives. A big thank you to Zarul for being a great dive master! Would 100% recommend using this dive centre for fun dives or an advanced course at a very good price.

Fun times with Din

Our guide Din was super friendly and chill. Even though we were newbie divers, he was very patient with us and ensured our safety at all times. I highly recommend everyone to have Din as a instructor!

5 Star padi dive centre, highly recommended

First impressions, easy contact via WhatsApp, and the equipment and boat was top quality. Got to dive at some great sites and observe healthy corals and plentiful marine life, including schools of barracuda, jacks, two spot snappers and an eagle ray. Bat fish, angel fish, butterfly fish, triggerfish etc. Soft and hard corals, very impressive fans and tunnel sponges. Even with some bad weather nearby the vis was still about 10-15m at depth which was fine. It can get a bit choppy on the water so bring sea sickness pills etc if you suffer from that. Alwee was a fantastic instructor, I couldn't ask for anything more, friendly, knowledgeable and patient. It was a pleasure to have him teach me for my advanced open water, thank you.

Best diving school in town!

I can't recommend this place enough! Shukry is a great organiser and always friendly. All the guides are very knowledge and helpful. They don't just want you to get through the course but also learn something! And I learned a lot. The visibility under water was not the best but that's just the way it is. I've done 5 days with GoAquatic. At first my open water and then my advanced right afterwards. Totally worth it. And the price is more than fair!
