Staff were soo friendly and helpful and our instructor for the open water padi cert was great. I was nervous and not super excited about diving to begin with but I had a lot of fun and will definitely do more diving after this experience with Flora Bay! We took a package with the Flora Bay resort, which made the trip really easy to organise.

Unforgettable experience!
We are a couple (24, 27) and did the open water diver course with Kelvin as our dive instructor. The whole team is very professional regarding the preparations and the dive lessons as well. Prior to the start of the course the administration lady Siti was really accommodating with all our questions and worries.
Everyone at the dive center is helpful and relaxed and the atmosphere is chill and pleasant.
Kelvin is a patient and empathetic dive teacher with much of dive experience. He was able to help each of us for our individual deficiency. His English is clear and easy to understand for non english speakers. We felt very safe during the whole course. He also teaches us how to dive in a way that protects the environment and the animals underwater.
Also the island, especially the Teluk Dalam Bay where the dive center is located, is a absolutely beautiful place with white, sandy and quiet beaches.
We are very thankful for this awesome experience and the wonderful stay at the Perhentian Islands! And thanks to Kelvin - it couldn't have been better!
P.S.: Kelvin you were right, we got our corn not until Lombok.. :D
Kind regards from Germany

I was there to do the open water diver. It was absolutely fantastic. Celvin is such a good teacher and the location is just great. I highly recommend to go there too. If I had more time, I would do the advanced open water diver course there as well. Thank you guys!

Amazing experience with Flora bay divers! I did my open water course there, they have been really professional and friendly at the same time! I found a really good atmosphere and the organisation was really good! The perhentian islands are a wonderful place for diving and this school is located in one of the best beaches!

Flora Bay Divers are a fantastic group of people who teach others how to enjoy the beauty of the underwater world and protect the environment. I did the Open Water Course plus several fun dives and had a wonderful time.
PADI Instructor Kelvin helped me to overcome my fears and made me fall in love with scuba diving. I admire his patience, compassion and enthusiasm.
The booking experience is perfect, guys will answer all your questions, and if something unexpected happens, like when you miss your flight, they can fast arrange the changes to help you.

While I didn't get a chance to dive with them (family bereavement) , through email the service was fantastic. Kelvin was extremely helpful and answered any questions I had. Very quick response time too. Really hope I get the chance to dive with these guys one day!
Thanks for all your help!

I’ve done 3 fun dives in Flora Bay divers and the experience was amazing!
2 dives with Henry as a guide: they were funny and he showed me lots of fishes where nobody can find them! The dives were also very useful, Henry helped me with my buoyancy issues when doing the safety stop and I finally got a good one! So proud 👌🏻
Flora Bay divers put all the facilities in your hand all the time and they make your experience very easy. I could share a dive with my boyfriend while he was doing the AOW course and we could dive in a wreck together with Suanne, an authentic fish lover ♥️

I had the chance to took my AOW course in Flora Bay Divers and I think I couldn't have made a better choice. Suanne was my instructor and she was thorough and comprehensive during all the sessions. She dedicated as much time as I needed to understand all concepts, and during practice, she kept giving tips to improve my experience and make me a better diver.
All in all, I can't do anything else than strongly recommend this diving center!!

Hola! Sorry we do not have any Spanish Instructor at the moment. You can try the Panorama Divers or Anti Gravity Divers. They may have Spanish instructors! :) Good luck!

Hello Sadhana,
Yes,a non swimmer can still enjoy the dives. As long as you're comfortable in water then all is good. If you're not,we recommend you to take up some basic swimming lessons just to be comfortable and gain more confidence in water.
