Wanlitong

The instructor was very patient and friendly, explaining in detail how to use the SUP. We didn't need to exert much effort while snorkeling either. The entire experience lasted over three hours, and I highly recommend it to everyone visiting Kenting!

I'm a little under 5'3" (160cm), and my whole body freezes up even if the water only comes up to my neck. I failed at snorkeling in Phuket and Krabi, but I finally succeeded in Kenting, Taiwan! The instructor was incredibly kind and checked on my condition frequently throughout the activity. They said we might be lucky enough to see turtles, and we saw seven! The instructor took so many great photos for us! Everyone there was local, and there weren't any other Koreans. I really hope more Koreans discover this place and come visit! They have lockers with password settings, the outdoor shower facilities were decent, and they even have hairdryers and a spin dryer!

Parking fees are an additional $50 per single entry. There are dining areas throughout the museum where you can bring your own food, or you can purchase food from the museum's restaurants or stalls! The museum offers a lot, including a schedule of activities you can participate in. The children had a great time, and we recommend allocating about 4-5 hours for your visit!

Book with Klook for convenience: purchase on-site and redeem your tickets instantly. Price: Cheaper than on-site prices, plus you can combine it with Starbucks coupon package deals. Facilities: The deer and capybaras are incredibly cute.

Such a great experience, lovely and passionate people running the tour and despite the language barrier they were very patient, attentive and friendly. The instructor initially pulls you around when you are attatched to a float to show you to the reef and make sure you can use your snorkling equipment correctly; then you are able to explore for yourself. So many beautiful fish, not invasive to the environment (marine protected area) and a highlight was seeing a turtle. They even take a few pictures for you and upload to their Facebook for you to download.

I was a little worried because there were no Korean reviews, so I went alone. First of all, they spoke English perfectly and were incredibly kind. They even offered to retrieve my phone if I dropped it, and explained everything in detail from start to finish! Instructor Yuki checked everything related to safety one by one, which made the experience really enjoyable. I was so grateful for the photos, 1:1 instruction, and care provided for this price. Usually, the snorkeling I've experienced was just being handed goggles and told to go play, but here, if you swallowed water, the instructor would ask if you were okay and even explain each fish. If you're Korean, just book here, no questions asked. Highly recommended!!

It was such a fun experience! It seemed like the instructor assigned depended on whether they could communicate in Chinese. Since we only speak English, we were assigned Teacher Angie! Haha, she felt like the youngest, newest instructor. The preparation time, including the necessary explanations for scuba diving, changing clothes, and moving to the spot, felt like it took over 40 minutes. We spent a little time in the water just to get accustomed before going fully underwater. I had previous scuba diving experience, so I thought I'd pick it up quickly, but I had trouble with my breathing at first and failed twice before succeeding on the third attempt. I was a bit nervous, but seeing the beautiful fish made me forget all about it. Teacher Angie seemed to know the best spots and guided us well. She was holding onto us from behind. When I reached out my hand, perhaps to touch something I shouldn't, she gently pulled me back. I guess that means she was always keeping an eye on us, right? Haha, it's an unforgettable memory!

1. Coach: A good coach is more important than anything else, and I've experienced both good and bad ones. The first coach, an older gentleman, was very kind; he chatted with us, took photos for us, and taught us not to be afraid. In contrast, another younger coach started the activity before we were even ready, before we had fully sat down or properly gripped the handles, constantly urging us to hurry up. Although we were on the water and wearing life vests, so nothing serious would happen, these are issues of safety and attitude. (I don't know what that coach teaches, but it's best to avoid younger coaches.) 2. Facilities: The showers were old and dirty, and there were insects. I'm a germaphobe and afraid of insects, so those spaces made me feel anxious. I recommend just a quick rinse there and then showering properly back at your hotel. 3. Experience: If you're not strong, don't do this activity. You have to constantly grip the handles, and they're very slippery. I even fell into the water midway because I genuinely ran out of strength. It requires much more effort than I expected. The force was so strong that I completely lost my grip several times because I had no strength left. Luckily, my friend was next to me, supporting me.

“The Excitement of My First Dive in Taiwan” My two children got their Open Water Diver (OW) certification in Hong Kong in July, and their first practical dive was here in Kenting. We initially went to another shop that had a lot of online ads and a large facility, but unfortunately, the experience wasn't great. Luckily, I had booked with Nanyung Diving! Nanyung's shop isn't big, but it's full of warm Taiwanese hospitality. They never rushed us, allowing us to take our time listening and learning. Coach A-Wei was incredibly friendly and gave very clear instructions; the introductory divers followed him. My children went with the experienced Master Tang-ge, who continuously taught them diving techniques and knowledge along the way. With them in his care, I felt at ease to enjoy my own underwater world! We didn't have plans for the next day, so we booked another morning dive with them. This time, the children went with Coach Long-Long, who meticulously searched for small marine creatures in the ocean for them to see. My older son said that once, the coach pointed to a pile of sand, and they looked and looked, not knowing what to see. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be an adorable sea bunny! For these two days, the waves near the shore were quite strong! Since it was a shore dive (introductory dive), we couldn't walk into or out of the sea on our own. Fortunately, Coach A-Wei is strong and familiar with the terrain. Whether going out or coming back to shore, all we had to do was float and relax, and he single-handedly towed both of us safely to the center of the sea. We're so grateful for his hard work! As Master Tang-ge said: “The system isn't important; skill is!” Similarly, the shop isn't important; skill is! When I was diving with the other shop, I thought, “Oh my god! Is this all Kenting diving has to offer? So disappointing!” We are so thankful to the coaches at Nanyung for giving us a perfect experience! P.S. For friends in Hong Kong who want to get certified in a better marine area or take their children snorkeling, Nanyung is absolutely recommended! @kentingnanyung #NanyungDiving
