Wetzone Divers Khao Lak

We spent 5 days diving with Wetzone and my teenage daughters completed their PADI Advanced OW with Lorenzo, who the girls said was great instructor, really straightforward and helpful. He passed them with very nice compliments. Wetzone are a terrific operation, with excellent and very experienced guides and instructors. I'm particularly conscious of good procedures for safety and dive management and was very happy with their approach. They're also very conscious of environmental matters (as the National Park requires) with reusable steel water bottles provided and no disposable plastics on board. I dived on the same days as my girls, once with Matt and the rest with Peppe, all exceptionally professional and consistent. After their course we dived in the same group together. Peppe and the rest of the guides and instructors were unfailingly helpful, patient and considerate. They made a great effort to make sure everyone was happy. It was great diving with such friendly and committed guys! The UW visibility was unreal (40+m on one day) and the sealife totally spectacular on all the dives - Richelieu Rock, Koh Bon and Koh Tachai. The guides were great in getting us to plenty of interesting spots. Wetzone is one of the few places that goes to and from these destinations on a daily basis so you can stay in a nice hotel onshore instead of roughing it on a live aboard. We stayed at Le Meridien and were picked up on time at 8:10am every morning by Wetzone. Much more comfortable to have a proper shower and eat a nice dinner at the end of the day! Wetzone provided lunch on the boat every day and it was tasty and filling (assuming you like mild curry) and did cater to dietary restrictions, although we didn't need that. There were also bananas and fresh water, so it was very comfortable. On the occasional day when the sea was less than calm, the captain was very skillful in maneuvering the very fast boat through choppy waves without any drama. Highly recommend for courses and really world class diving. My only complaint is that my kids are now totally spoiled with these fantastic dives!

I am absolutely delighted with this dive center and can highly recommend it. The organization is excellent, safety standards are taken very seriously, and at the same time there is a very friendly and relaxed atmosphere both in the shop and on the boat. A special thank you to the divemasters: Lorenzo has a very calm and confident presence that immediately makes you feel safe. You can clearly see that he is a very experienced diver, and I felt completely comfortable and secure diving with him. I completed my Deep Dive Adventure with Colin. His explanations were very clear and precise, and I especially appreciated how consistently he used hand signals already during the briefing. Seeing the signals repeatedly makes it much easier to apply them correctly underwater. He also shared additional information that I had not heard before but that is very important for emergency ascents. Overall, the briefing was extremely detailed and very professional. A big thank you as well to Matt. Diving with him was fantastic. He really takes the time at the dive sites so you can fully enjoy observing the marine life without any rush. At the same time, he brings a great sense of humor, which creates a relaxed environment and takes a lot of pressure off, especially for less experienced divers. I did not dive with Ronen, but he was always present on the boat and brought such a cheerful, positive energy — a real ray of sunshine who greatly contributed to the great atmosphere on board. The same goes for Pepe. I didn’t go diving with him either, but he was in a great mood, kept making jokes, and created a relaxed atmosphere while still being professional and clearly taking his responsibilities seriously. The entire team was consistently friendly, attentive, and professional. I felt well taken care of from beginning to end and can therefore confidently give a five-star rating — I would gladly give even more stars if that were possible. The only small disappointment was learning that manta rays and whale sharks are actually seen very, very rarely, even though they are strongly used in the advertising. The chances of seeing them are extremely small, which would have been helpful to know more clearly in advance.

Fantastic experience from start to finish. The team organised a refresher dive for my son and husband the day before the sea dive, collection and drop off to the hotel we were staying in.Dive itself to Koh Bon was incredible and so special for those non divers to be able to accompany on the boat and snorkel. Team looked after us so well and would highly recommend
