Tioman Dive Centre

Tioman feels like a hidden gem! Beautiful jungle-covered mountains meet clear blue waters. Excellent diving and snorkeling spots, plus a very laid-back atmosphere. Great for nature lovers and adventurers.

I had an unacceptable experience with the owner. As a new beginner working toward my Open Water certificate, I had an agreement to dive with an instructor for my safety and learning. When I needed to change the date due to personal reasons (I got my period – which is human and normal), the owner suddenly wanted to overcharge me, even though this was never mentioned before. On top of that, his attitude was extremely rude. He told me, “I don’t need to communicate properly with you, I am the owner” and insisted that he hadn’t agreed to provide me with an instructor. As a beginner, safety and trust are the most important parts of scuba diving. Instead of feeling safe, I felt disrespected and treated like a wallet, not a human being. No one should walk into a dive centre and be treated in such a rude and disgusting manner. Diving requires responsibility and respect, and unfortunately, this place failed completely in both.

I did my react right + rescue diver at TDC. Every colleague at TDC has been so helpful and friendly since our first chat. The instructors and dive masters are experienced, accountable and responsible. They definitely put safety first in every step & ensured my thorough understanding of all procedures. I highly appreciated all the detailed and useful teaching. My only regret is that I didn’t manage to stay longer after the course. It would have been awesome to dive at the most beautiful sites if I spent another two days with the fun people. I highly recommend TDC for a holistic & solid learning experience.
