    I just finished my Open Water Diver course with Lex Van Helden, and he was absolutely fantastic! He can speak both English and Dutch! Lex is patient, detail-oriented, and incredibly skilled at teaching. He made me feel safe and confident while explaining everything clearly and thoroughly. His passion for diving is inspiring, and his friendly, professional approach made the experience unforgettable. I would HIGHLY recommend diving with Lex Van Helden—he’s the best instructor you could ask for! Thanks to him, I’m hooked on scuba diving!

    I booked the tour the evening prior and it was a great day. The staff were super nice and the food was good and served on normal dishes, no single used plastic! We got also fruits and cookies later. The guide showed us some spots and was quite helpful also taking some underwater pictures. We always were the first boat at these spots so it was quite good not to have so many people around. You could also stay on the boat and relax on deck.

    Staff were great, boat was in good shape, food was tasty, snorkeling was wonderful! We saw sharks, stingrays, pufferfish, and a turtle!

    Note: fins are an additional charge (150 baht per person) and I would recommend getting them. You'll swim much faster so you can see much more.

    Snorkeling was fun, equipment could be better, one of the guides gave me another pair of snorkel equipment and it was much better. Saw beautiful fishes and the hike has a nice view. I really didn’t like waiting an hour in the van after the trip. We were up since 7 and the breakfast and lunch were not great. Really need to improve both. We were eager to get home and wish we didn’t have to wait an hour in the van for another group.

    The small group experience was worth the extra cost. The equipment was well maintained and high quality. The mask was the clearest and most leak-free I have ever used. They even had a –2 Rx mask for my husband who wears glasses. The beach lunch was delicious. The crew helped graciously with every step of the day. It was a highly professionally run company. We saw a lot of coral and a nice variety of fish species. Unfortunately the reef colors are “washed out” due to climate change and if this is the best snorkeling spot in Thailand the oceans are doomed. Sad to see local fishermen fishing out the tiny fish in the snorkel habitat. None of this is the fault of the tour - just some editorializing about the dire future of humanity as we know it. Snorkel now before there’s nothing left to see.

    Really enjoyed our day. Started a lil slow and got. But once things/people got organized it was great. Stopped at 4 different spots and got to snorkel with baby reef sharks and turtles. Lots of fish too. The guide was super friendly and really wanted the best for all. We had 17 people on board and this is the only way I would wanna go. The other boats were packed with people.. makes it hard to snorkel with tons of people. The meals were pretty good too. Thanks again for a great day captain and crew đź’ś

    The view was gorgeous and the experience nice. David the guide was great, the ride to the islands was a nightmare. We took a speedboat that was fast, bumpy and nauseating. Both to the island and back. The views were so beautiful - making us forget the nightmare ride to - however the ride back was just as horrible … without a great view at the end. There really has to be a more enjoyable was to get there.

    Myself and friend booked this week, picked up on time from our hotel, boat crew were friendly and professional, lunch was delicious and all 5 stops were beautiful. Snorkeling equipment was provided. Would go with Oxygen tours again.

    Amazing snorkelling locations, good lunch, good communication from travel agent. Would be 5 stars except my last snorkel was only 5 mins instead of 35 because boat operator decided we had to go back 30mins early and there was no discernible change in the weather and turned out unnecessary.
