I am a newly certified open water diver and was looking forward for my first dives in Thailand. After emailing dozens of dive centres, I chose Aussie Divers because of their reviews and professionalism (trust me, you can feel it just by exchanging emails with them).
I took a day trip with Ashish for three dives in Koh Bida Nok, Turtle Rock and Shark Point. I was a bit apprehensive as my certification was done with a dry suit in the UK in a lake and this was my first time diving on the sea, obviously without a dry suit. Ashish helped me with my buoyancy and trim and made me feel comfortable and safe throughout the day. We spotted huge schools of fish, moray eels, sea snakes, barracudas, trigger fish, clownfish, sharks, cuttlefish and a few turtles.
I asked him to take some pictures and videos and he was really good at showing me the best angles and poses. He then transferred me the media on the boat without any delay.
The boat was good, with decent facilities and good food - they catered for my dietary restrictions. We had the best spot for the dives, right next to the platform, so we were always the first on the water and managed to go first around the places.
Great experience, I hope I can come back to dive with you guys again!
