Scuba Diving with Instructor Nelly - Loved it. - Just did my Open Water diving course with Scuba Birds, my instructor Nelly was amazing and I had a blast. She was serious but fun, and gave the whole group confidence to succeed in all the skills and dives. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to complete their open water diver course.

Incredible instructor, diving and resort. Had the time of my life, thank you!! - Had the absolute most incredible experience at Bans, Abbie our instructor was so lovely, helpful and competent. Felt so safe and looked after learning how dive with her, and so many good local recommendations! The resort was also so ideal being close to Sairee beach and a countless number of restaurants and shops. Met a bunch of lovely people, the place is so multicultural and the diving was just stunning. Already want to come back and do my advanced training, thanks so much Abbie and Bans for the best 4 days ever (minus the early mornings lol).

At the top, extraordinary - The top, I'm afraid I won't finish the PADI but our instructor Stephen has put us in confidence.
He was patient and understanding.
I took confidence and we got our PADI.
The funds are extraordinary, the wildlife is crazy.
We were staying at tao thong villa 2 (at the top also if you are looking for a little piece of paradise)
Thanks again to Stephen.
You can go now. Trust me.
Be careful, if you do not understand English ask in advance for an instructor in French.

Diving with friends in Paradise… - As seamless and straight forward as learning to dive gets. Huge props to my friend & I’s instructor, Fransisco a.k.a ‘Sisco’, we couldn’t recommend a diving instructor more. Super chilled & patient but also direct and efficient when it’s time to knuckle down. We breezed through our open water course and became certified in just 3 days after 4 really nice dives and the whole time learning everything there is to know to dive confidently and set up dive gear on my own. Huge thank you to Scuba birds, a very well organised dive school that were very helpful from the beginning. Great facilities and equally as nice equipment to use throughout the entirety of the course. Couldn’t recommend them more!

Amazing experience. Top instructor - We had Josip as an instructor. Absolutely amazing experience. He was so passionate about diving and very patient. Great instruction and willing to put in every effort and explain topics clearly and precisely. He went above and beyond. Amazing value for money. I recommend anyone wishing to dive in Koh Tao use Scuba Birds and if you get Josip you will have the best experience and tuition.

Professional and safety - Nelly my Russian mother ♥️pilot me through the course, pep me up gave me security, knowledge and a wonderful experience of diving.
I live on this experience for a long time. Nelly is very professional and thorough instructor, safety first, she show great patience because I completely lacked knowledge of diving or English language
If I will dive in the future I will return to Scuba Bird on Koh Tao

Great facility and instruction - I can’t recommend Cisko enough. I was a complete beginner and Cisko made the course enjoyable and safe, taking away any anxiety I may have had regarding diving prior to the start date. He is really passionate about what he does and tries his best to create a sense of community in the dive group.
The location of the centre is really handy as it’s right by the pier, equipment good & it’s very much worth every penny.
Thank you for making my first dive experience a good one!

PADI OWD - We did the PADI course at this school and our instructor was Victor. Highly recommended! Victor is everything you'd hope for - he's patient, careful, has an empathy for those students who aren't doing so well. He has a high level of skill and diving knowledge, which makes you feel safe. At the same time he's fun and open and makes the course as enjoyable as possible.
