Welcome to the ScubaGuards Website




If you're looking for great service, professional and friendly staff... you're in the right place. We have the knowledge to pass on to you, whether you're taking a course or just fun-diving and looking for some local orientation.  But that's not all. Our website holds details on all aspects of what we can offer you, from the first time diver through to someone having hundreds of dives in their log.

All of our Instructors are fluent in English and in numerous other languages too. They are all trained to PADI Divemaster certification or above and all are in Active Teaching Status with PADI as well as holding legal work permits.

ScubaGuards can be found as an integral or resident service at many of the larger hotels and resorts in Kata, Karon and Patong where we provide a free try of the scuba gear in the hotel swimming pool and provide information and scheduling on our courses and diving daytrips. These hotels have fully trained staff to help with your diving needs.

For those of you with your own private villa and pool, in areas like Rawai, Naiharn, Surin and Bang Tao, we also provide private tuition where we bring our services to you. You can learn in your own villa, and it's great for the kids too. Check out the PADI Bubblemaker course, for children of 8yrs or more.


All of our Instructors are kids friendly and in just a few minutes, we'll have you children in the pool and enjoying the scuba gear as part of the PADI Bubblemaker or the Seal Team course.
These courses are designed for fun, in a safe environment.


Dive safety is very important, and we adhere to Standards that are recommended and governed by PADI. Generally, our training classes have between 1 and 4 students for first time divers. When there are more than 4 first time divers in the same group, we'll add more Instructors to give extra confidence and safety in the water as needed.

For your open water training sessions, we take a daytrip boat to one of the local islands, like Racha Yai, Racha Noi or even Phi Phi, where you can enjoy Thai hospitality, 2/3 dives per day, some snorkeling and of course some relaxing. Non-divers and snorkelers are welcome to come with you on the boat too. It makes a great day out for the family.

When you're short on time, these training sessions can also be provided at the local beaches of Kata & Kata Noi.

For divers wanting to upgrade their level of certification, we can highly recommend sites like King Cruiser, Shark Point, Anenome Reef and Koh Doc Mai as places that differ in diving conditions. Great for Advanced Open Water courses.

Those of you who already have diving licenses will appreciate our selection of dive boats and speedboats for daytrip diving and snorkeling. We have a lot of options for you, with dive sites from beginner to advanced levels.

In high season, beach diving and night diving are great experiences that we can offer you. If you're interested in trying something different (dive-related!), ask us, and we'll see if it's possible.

We're a professional dive service, and we aim to provide you with a great time in the class room, in the water and even if you care to join us in the evenings! We hope you find our website informative, and we're online if you'd like any more information.
