Source review excerpts
Our 10-year-old son completed his Junior Open Water Diver certification at Turtle Diver, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. The entire team was professional, friendly, and incredibly patient with children. He felt safe, well supported, and had a lot of fun throughout the course. The training was well structured and clearly explained, while still being enjoyable. We as parents also did a refresher course, which was excellent as well. Everything was organized perfectly, and we felt very comfortable and well taken care of. We can highly recommend Turtle Diver – a fantastic experience for the whole family! 🌊🐢

Really nice experience. I did the Discover Scuba Diving experience with Turtle Divers and can absolutely recommend them. The whole team was very friendly, professional and careful, which made me feel safe from the beginning. My dive was with a Spanish freelance instructor called Uriel. He really helped me overcome my fear and made sure I felt comfortable at all times. Thanks to him, I had a fantastic first scuba diving experience. He also speaks German, which made me feel even more confident and relaxed as an Austrian. Overall, I can totally recommend it. .

TLDR: The team deserves more than 5⭐️. Shout out to Verena & Wayne (owners), Gage & Gizem (incredible instructors) and Pom (always had our back). *** My partner did her OWD with Verena & Wayne back in 2018. She was so impressed back then that she promised me that I won’t find a better diving school on the island, so I didn’t look any further for my OWD. The entire process (including accommodation) was efficiently done via WhatsApp and two weeks later, I started my diving journey with Gage (a brilliant teacher btw). Whilst I was doing my OWD, my partner went out with Gizem. A couple of fun dives later (all w Gizem and it was great diving with her) we decided to do the AOW. Gage helped us through the AOW and equipped us with all the skills we need to go explore some of SE Asia’s most challenging/interesting diving sites. Instructors aside, the entire team made us feel at home during our 10-day stay on Koh Tao and we ended up spending a lot more time at the Tipsy Turtle (they have great burgers btw) than we would initially have expected. We enjoyed the experience so much that we already decided that we will be back. We can wholeheartedly recommend the diving school; even more so if you speak German as more than half of the team/patrons come from German-speaking countries.
