Bear Diving - Xiaoliuqiu One-on-One Introductory Dive (No license)

My wife can't swim at all, so when booking the trip, she called the instructor first to ask. She was told that as long as she wasn't afraid of water, it would be fine! So, we boldly booked the diving experience. One instructor is assigned to one student, and they also provide pre-dive instruction on shore. For those who've never done it before, the biggest challenge is dealing with ear pressure when descending. Just pinch your nose or swallow, and then confidently leave the rest to the instructor. You don't even need to swim; just relax and enjoy the beautiful underwater scenery! For photos and videos, just follow the instructor's lead! This was a truly worthwhile activity, and we're very grateful to the instructors at Bear Dive for giving us such a wonderful experience and memories!

Teacher Morgan helped me; she was very friendly, patient, and efficient. She knew I came alone and didn't speak Mandarin, so she explained all the scuba diving rules clearly in English. This activity was a lot of fun, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Even though I did it at midday, everything was great. I will definitely come back sometime.

Best for First timer like me. Clear and precise briefing before scuba diving and attentive instructor/s. Plus, photos and vids is good.

Wanting to try scuba diving, Coach Qian was truly very patient, constantly encouraging me and trying to help me relax. When I got a little nervous in the water, he had me look at him to shift my focus, guided me with hand gestures to breathe slowly, and let me relax gradually. Once I felt better, we would continue. Instead of feeling impatient or rushed, this actually gave me a lot of peace of mind. He even encouraged me by saying the underwater world was waiting for me. Although I didn't completely finish the dive, at least I got to see the wonders of the underwater world. A sea turtle got closer to me than I could have ever imagined, though I was even more worried about touching it. We love nature, but we need to respect it even more; please never touch the sea turtles, and take good care of our only nature. Instead, I feel very apologetic toward Coach Qian, as he had to busy himself taking care of me while also juggling taking photos and videos. I am truly grateful for Coach Qian's guidance, I am endlessly thankful 🙏🙏🙏 Having seen many great reviews beforehand, I participated in snorkeling and scuba diving with "Bear Dive" for three consecutive days. Although it was quite a ride from the guesthouse, I was more than willing to make the trip. Going back and forth several times every day was totally worth it. I really wish I could stay longer in Xiaoliuqiu, I truly love Taiwan so much ❤️🇹🇼

Booking in advance on Klook offers discounts and is cheaper than booking on-site. The instructor was very attentive, clearly explaining the entire process and what to pay attention to. It was a very happy and fulfilling experience, a fantastic experience overall. I would choose Bear Diving again next time I visit Xiaoliuqiu, it's highly recommended.

I highly recommend Bear Diving. Coaches Tofu and Momo were very attentive in teaching and I took a lot of photos, but it seemed like less than 2 hours.

On my solo trip to Kaohsiung, I was torn between snorkeling and scuba diving. Having snorkeled a few times before, I decided to try scuba diving this time. A one-on-one session was just over five hundred (including filming and photos), which is great value. I was so nervous when I first got into the water that I didn't know how to breathe. Luckily, instructor Ah Qian let me get used to it by the shore for a while. Once I was underwater, he asked me if I was okay every 30 seconds at first, haha. The underwater world is truly beautiful, and I even got to see sea turtles, clownfish, octopuses, and more up close. Be careful when getting in and out of the water, as the equipment on your back is heavy, and there are potholes. It's better to walk slowly. The coach helped me when the waves were big when I got ashore, thank you. I'm not young anymore, so I probably won't have many more chances to go scuba diving. It was an unforgettable experience in my life.

The coach explained very carefully and it was an interesting experience to see turtles up close. If you have any problems, we will solve them patiently to help you adapt. There are videos and photos full of harvest

Could not be happier with our scuba experience with Bear Diving. There were 3 of us, one who was quite nervous, but William went above and beyond to ensure she felt safe and confident. Brittney spoke fluent English and took us through everything we needed to know, and Mo Mo did a great job as our photographer. Highly recommend!

Although it was not my first time to Xiaoliuqiu, it was my first time to participate in a one-on-one license-free diving experience. I can only say that it was really great! Totally worth it! Because my wife has sea phobia and I think scuba diving is a high-cost activity, I have been hesitant to sign up. However, with the careful explanations of the coaching team, the patient teaching of Coach A Kun, and the thoughtful service and professional photography of Coach Tou, I did not feel insecure or that I was being cheated during the entire activity! It is a highly recommended activity!
