5.00I did my PADI Advanced Open Water with BBDivers, and can only recommend the diving school. Always approachable, super helpful and top organized. And also super fun. My Instructor Delphine was outstanding, explained everything and guided me through the course superbly. Anytime again, and the next FG in Dive is already booked.
Just recommendable.

5.00I did my open water part of the OWD at the bbdivers. I felt super cared for. The whole team was super nice and also top organized. And I want to thank Steve my dive trainer in particular. I was very nervous at the beginning and also made many mistakes but Steve calmed me down very quickly due to his calm and professional way of working, from there everything went super uncomplicated. We had two fantastically beautiful diving days (with words not to be described at all). The next fundive is already booked. Thank you very much
Amazing dives and a great course.

5.00What an absolutely amazing experience! Not only did BB Divers teach me skills needed to dive safely, but during these lessons I was lucky enough to see a Whale Shark, Sea Turtle, and dolphins! My teacher Frederica was amazing, extremely helpful, and answered all my questions. Any time I had an issue during the training, she helped resolve. If you book this course and have her as your instructor you'll be in good hands. Thanks BB Divers and thanks Frederica!
Highly recommended!

5.00I have completed the Open Water entry level course. Everything was super organized! Since my English was a bit rusty I even got a German-speaking diving instructor on the side! I felt safe all the time and there was always enough time for questions and queries. Can only recommend! If you are here and feel like diving, this is the right address!

5.00What an experience 🤩 The day starts at the BB divers shop on the bang bao pier. No worries if located further away, taxi picks you up. Once everyone is registered we take of to the boat. Nostalgia al over. The charming old boat takes you at a slow pace at your destination. While enjoying the wonderful suroundings we get briefed, make our gear ready and once there we get straight to driving. The crew works as a solid machine. Making everything happen easy and controled. I loved the atmosphere, the experience and knowledge BB divers offered. Thank you 🙏
