Scuba Diving for Beginners in Phuket: Pool Training & Open Water
Scuba Diving for Beginners in Phuket: Pool Training & Open Water★★★★★★★★★★ 4.95 (106)2hA beginner scuba diving class in Phuket that starts with pool training at Kata Beach, then moves to two open-water dives at Koh Racha Yai.

Children from age 10 are welcome with a supervising parent.Is it for me?Hotel pickup from Kamala, Patong, Karon, Kata, Chalong pier or Rawai means you don't need a car or a ride arranged—the boat leaves from the pier after you're collected. This settles the logistics for a first-time diver arriving without transport or staying in a central beach area.Free cancellationfromUS$ 74View ›
