La Bombona Diving - Scuba Diving Center - Koh Tao - Thailand

Big thanks to La Bombonera Diving School and my outstanding instructor Martin for this fantastic opportunity to learn a new skill and discover the underwater world! The whole team is incredibly welcoming and friendly, which makes the learning process feel effortless. I can’t recommend Martin highly enough, he shares his knowledge so clearly and patiently that it felt like I’d been diving for years. Highly recommended!

Cannot recommend enough! My friends and I signed up for the Open Water 20 course and we absolutely loved our experience. Everyone from the instructors to boat staff were so friendly and fun! Our instructor, Adrian, did an incredible job at making us feel safe and excited for scuba diving. He did a good job at explaining skills/content and adding humor to the dives. I had so much fun that I decided to stay on for my Explorer 30. It was a blast and who knows, maybe I’ll make a return to get my dive master :) Also, the photos are 100% worth it! Jose did an incredible job and I could not be happier with my experience at La Bombona

A Dream Realized. It is hard to put into words my thankfulness to LBD for helping me to achieve one of my lifetime goals/dreams. I did a TRY DIVE with instructor Sofia. Sofia guided me through the land, boat, and dive instruction. When I fell back into the water after donning my scuba gear, there was extreme excitement and as well as a terror. BUT Sofia was there with her calm voice and mannerisms coaching me. The first time I totally submerged, was overwhelming but I just kept looking at Sophia and following her calm hand signals. It was magic. If I started to feel panicked, I visually checked in with Sofia and all was well again. We did two dives. I felt strong, powerful, safe, and deeply humbled by the beauty of what lies below. I have no words Sofia for the gift of realizing a long term dream, and for realizing that age does not define me. I'm SO very thankful that Sofia introduced me to Jose, LBD Photo. Jose is a professional underwater photographer and he was also by my side taking photos of my dive as well as the beautiful underwater landscape. Friends and family that have seen the photos have said they are so vivid and was like being there with me. If opportunity presents itself, I highly recommend that you let Jose capture your LBD experience. Thank you Jose. Finally l, I would like to acknowledge the LBD, boat crew. They are the glue behind the scene, making everything run smooth and safe. Remember to respect our oceans Don't contribute to the trash epidemic in our oceans, that is even finding its way into paradise. There is vast life and beauty beneath the water that we need to protect. Again, thanks LBD, Sofia for helping me to fulfill my dream and Jose for capturing my experience.
