Lanta Diver – Koh Lanta Diving and Snorkeling

Planned pretty much my whole Thailand trip around learning to dive with Lanta Divers, and I’m so glad I did. From the first email with Julie, the professionalism and efficiency of the shop became clear. Throughout my 10 dives with them I felt everyone there strikes a perfect balance between having fun and taking safety seriously. It’s clear the whole staff takes pride in what they do. I did my Open Water Cert with Tae, who is SO clearly brilliant at getting beginners to grips with the basics of diving. He was a steady, calm and humorous instructor for our group of newbies. I later did my Advanced Open Water with Gaz, who was also super patient and friendly. I always felt well taken care of as a new diver. Overall I had a great experience and will absolutely dive with these guys again when I’m back in Lanta.

We had a really fun snorkeling trip. They collected us at our hotel, and dropped us off afterwards. Claudia explained in great detail about our snorkeling sites and what we could expect to see. For lunch they had both vegan and non vegan foods. If you have a scooter you could also drive yourself there, as we did have to wait about 40 minutes for the others to arrive. I would suggest asking in advance if the divers are doing 2 or 3 dives on the boat as that will determine whether you have 2 or 3 snorkel times. We thought we would snorkel 3 times, but as no divers were doing 3 dives we headed back after the 2nd time. Our trip had a photographer, you can speak to him before getting in the water about any photos you might want. On the boat ride back we were able to view the photos and then purchase those we wanted. He emailed them to us before we had even gotten back to land. It was a fun trip and highly recommended.

Amazing experience with Lanta Diver! We had such a fantastic day with Lanta Diver. My boyfriend booked a scuba diving trip while I joined the snorkeling tour, and both experiences were handled so smoothly and professionally. I was paired with Isabelle as my snorkeling guide, and she was absolutely amazing—kind, patient, knowledgeable, and made me feel completely comfortable in the water. She took great care of me the entire time and made the experience truly enjoyable and relaxing. The whole team was friendly, well-organized, and clearly passionate about what they do. From start to finish, everything felt safe, fun, and well taken care of. Highly recommend Lanta Diver whether you’re diving or snorkeling—we’d definitely book with them again! 🌊🤿✨
