I very much enjoyed diving with Flip Flop Divers. They have a fun yet professional approach to diving and obviously have a passion for protecting and observing marine life. I would highly recommend booking in with them if you are looking to enjoy a great dive in good company. More

I went diving with a friend at Flip Flop divers last November, (2011). We are both Divemasters and have over fifteen years experience of diving all over SE Asia and the Pacific. I have never complained about any dive op before but my experience with these guys was so bad that I feel compelled to warn others of the culture... More

We did a dive to Kho Haa with Ady. Not only was the dive simply spectacular but also have we been treated with extreme care. Ady has been the most informative guide one can imagine. He certainly knows the reefs he visits and prepares the dive in an easy to understand manner. Also being freshie's in Scuba we have been... More

It's bee a long time since I have been to the beach or the sea. I had health problems and still not allowed to dive but I have great time with the people and the trip. Thank you Ady, Valerie, Luke, Clair and every one else I might not have mentioned here. Even Nelson and Flip Flop are cool to... More

We came to Koh Lanta mostly to snorkle, but my wife also wanted to try diving. Now while I like snorkling, I'm more of a rock climber myself and going down below the surface of the water is a scary proposition for me. The staff at Flip Flop is great. Ady, the owner, was very informative, very helpful, and extremely... More

I wandered into Flip Flop Divers (on the main road towards the south end of Long Beach) and straight away knew I’d found the right company for me to dive with. A chilled-out vibe, a nice little cafe and friendly staff to answer all my questions. Ady and Val, the husband and wife team that own the dive shop, didn't... More

Staff are very friendly and helpful, they definitely went above and beyond! The boat was spacious and very comfortable for travel, providing lots of tasty food. We went to several dive spots which I would love to re-visit, again and again. I would highly recommend this company if you are looking for some quality diving and good times in Ko... More
