Kiwidivers
The best SCUBA shop in Phuket for dive tours and instruction

I just came back from my holidays in Thailand, where I did 6 fun dives with kiwidiver. I can only recommend this shop. I did some research and emailed a few of the local dive centres before going. The team of kiwidiver is very professional, responded quickly and the whole logistics were seamless. My boyfriend and I had a great time on the boat and underwater. Our guide was very helpful and knowledgable and took the time to point out various macrolife and gave us time to take photos. Would definitely book again! Thanks for the great experience!

It was really great. I did my AOWD course with Charles. I really enjoyed everything. Dive sites were great, brilliant boat and a very, very well experienced instructor and a great person. If i come back to Phuket one day, i will devinitely book my place at Kiwidiver again. Thanks again Charles. All the best!!! Best regards, Dominik (from Austria :-))

Charles is such a cool guy, very detailed, and tells you the why of things and real life scenarios when teaching the techniques, safety skills, and equipment usage. When in open water, he guides you through everything and makes you feel safe even if you never dove before, swimming between corals, showing you really cool marine life, and taking pictures of you! I highly recommend taking the Open Water Course with him, and I can't wait to be back in Thailand to dive more and maybe doing the Advanced Course with the most experienced instructor in Phuket!

Myself and my partner dived for 9 days with Charles and Kiwidivers in the incredible Andaman sea. Charles was a fantastic instructor and guide; he is competent and friendly, we always felt safe and he knew each dive site really well, sometimes taking us to areas where no other divers seemed to be visiting. We saw amazing wildlife while we were diving, and Charles also gave us time at each site to collect footage we wanted for a project. Both of us are certified divers but still felt like we improved massively during the course of the trip. We also completed the drift diver specialty with Kiwidivers, which was completed and signed off quickly. The dive sites themselves are special, and Charles ensured you get a variety if you go to the same island multiple times. Kiwidivers were extremely helpful with other travel tips, transport to the boat, and support when our gear broke/not appropriate for what we wanted to do. Could not recommend Kiwidivers enough, we had an amazing trip and will be coming back.

Professional, friendly and well run. Charles is knowledgeable and down to earth, great dive spots and only ever has small groups unlike many other operators. Highly recommended.

I did some fun diving, training and booked a liveaboard through Kiwidivers on a recent trip to Phuket and had a great time with them. From prompt responses to emails during the initial enquiry and booking all the way through. I had Vincent as an Instructor/guide for the bulk of m dives out of Phuket. He is a fountain of knowledge on the diving around Phuket having been there so long but he still gets excited and passionate about all the dives and it’s possible to do a whole dive from a day trip boat with Vincent without seeing another diver. I certainly will be back.
