Great day! - I had a fantastic day today, diving for the first time! I was very nervous but Markus guided and helped me throughout, as did the rest of the instructors.
I was so proud of myself afterwards and really appreciated all the support from Markus and the team.
I would really love to come back and do my Open Water PADI certificate one day.
Thank you BB team!

Perfect entry into diving Two unforgettable dives - We had an excellent organized diving trip with two dives and can recommend this experience without restriction.
Everything was professionally structured and reliably implemented, from booking to hotel pickup and return. On board there was a pleasant atmosphere with a friendly, helpful team. Even for the physical well-being was well taken care of lunch and drinks were included and very good quality.
Our instructor Ivo introduced us to the world of diving as beginners with great calmness, patience and expertise. The theoretical basics, handling of equipment as well as the procedures underwater were explained clearly and understandably. This created a sense of security and trust from the first moment.
The two dives themselves were impressive. We were able to enjoy the fascinating underwater world in a relaxed and safe company. You can clearly see that experience, professionalism and passion for diving come together here.
Conclusion: An all-round successful, well-organized and eventful diving experience. If you are a beginner and want to get into diving safely and competently accompanied, you are in the best hands here. Anytime again.

Discovery dive - The experience was truly extraordinary. We dived with Seb who speaks French which made learning much easier for us. He was patient and adapted the experience according to the facilities of each.
And of course, the three sites we visited were beautiful.
Thank you for this experience!

Beautiful excursion - We had a mega day, our dive instructor Marcus was mega . He was super responsive to me and my daughter ( 12) and had a lot of patience. The dives were great even the islands approached just a dream , hardly any people , white beaches . The food was great and also with drinks we were well supplied. The dive course was super explained, you felt safe and the excitement was taken away well. All in all a wonderful experience and definitely recommend... we will be back

Safe, Fun, best diving experience possible. - Signed up for the Discover Scuba experience having never dived before. Immediately was greeted by our awesome dive master Steve and his soon-to-be Dive master in training, Oliver. My wife and I had these two all to ourselves for the rest of the day, while they slowly and clearly explained the days agendas and made it so much fun. The dives were easy and fun and absolutely exceeded our expectations. The experience was so good, and my faith in Steve and Oliver, that at the end of the day I signed up to do my open water course. I spent two more private days with the two gentleman and am now a proud open water certified SCUBA diver! Top to bottom the experience was first class, and I always felt my safety, comfort, and learning objectives were at the forefront of their mind. I couldn’t ask for better treatment and will 100% be diving at BB divers when my wife and I return.

Many thanks to Adrien and the whole team - We did 2 diving baptisms with Adrien who was at the top and knew how to reassure us when needed
He is both very kind, friendly but also very professional
We were also able to exchange with him after the dive
The whole team is on top, the equipment is very good, the boat large and well maintained
In conclusion we had a wonderful day
Again thank you to the whole team
And we of course bought 3 souvenir tank tops
Conclusion, I can only recommend this diving center!

Amazing first diving & snorkeling experience! - We had an absolutely phenomenal day with BB Divers in Koh Chang, and I can’t recommend them enough, especially our instructors Steve and Oliver.
This was our first time ever diving and snorkeling, and from start to finish they made us feel safe, comfortable, and confident. Steve and Oliver were incredibly patient, never rushed us, and truly took their time to explain everything clearly. What really stood out was how much they emphasized listening to our bodies, and even more importantly, they genuinely listened to us as well.
They constantly checked in, adjusted the pace to what felt right for us, and made sure we were enjoying every moment. Because of them, what could have been intimidating turned into an unforgettable, fun, and relaxed experience.
We felt cared for, supported, and encouraged the entire day, and it honestly couldn’t have been better for first time divers. Huge thank you to Steve and Oliver for making our day so special. We’ll remember it forever and would 100% dive with them again!

Amazing diving experience! - What an amazing experience!!! I can't recommend BB Divers more on Koh Chang! Oscar was a fantastic Dive Master, he made sure to get pictures and video of the wild life for us on our dives and was extremely helpful and friendly! Couldn't have asked for a better leader, thanks again Oscar! We were lucky enough to see dolphins on our trip as well as sea turtles and a bunch of stingrays. The lunch was fantastic and the fresh fruit was a great snack before we started sailing back. The captain and crew were also great!
