I chose to dive with Forra on the strength of a personal recommendation from a diving friend and I was not disappointed with my decision – I was actually lucky enough to arrive with a liveaboard safari departing in two days so after one day diving at the beautiful far islands sites, I signed up for 6 days of diving...

Equipment for rent was good. Plenty of staff for all the divers. Good location at the foot of Walking Street. My only reservation is that so many Europeans smoke and smoking cigarettes is difficult for me to deal with. More

What do you want from a dive centre...? Experienced and professional dive guides who are still enthusiastic about finding cool marine life...? Then Forra is for you. If you are not chilled out when you arrive, you will be when you leave. Forget your watches and get into rhythm with island time. Thank you to Mao in particular for being... More

It has been two years that I have been thinking about getting the PADi as my husband already got his. I met the French owner and his staff, they were really friendly, not pushy at all, very flexible. They try to make only small groups to ensure the efficiency of the course. The instructor (Francois) made me feel very confident.... More

Forra Divers are a passionate bunch of professionals. They were knowledgeable and safe. The kit was in good condition and the beer as chilled as the DM’s. With all the beach life around it must be tricky to stay focused on the job, but these guys manage it. I’d go back in a flash. More

I was fun diving and my boyfriend completed not only the PADI Openwater course, but decided to stay with Forra to complete the... More

Friendly staff, good equipment, huge boat, 3centers, chilled out but professional, this is one of the best dive center I've been to. Instructors and DM are from everywhere, so no language barrier. You feel a bit like home, and everyone has a smile stuck on their face. For sure I'll go back and try more days, and maybe the liveaboard! More

I was brought to Koh Lipe Forra Diving Center as a non-diver by friends who are divers for over 10 years in Feb.2011. They go there since 8 years and I know there is a damn good reason for it!. I did my Open Watter Padi there with the best instructor in the world. I had the best trips and... More

Thanks to our teacher Sergi we had a great in discovering the awesome diving experience. He had lot of patience, and made the whole experience enjoyable and fun (the book... More
