Incredible experience, it was our own private tour. I thought it was going to be a large group and it wasn’t. Our guide was on time and nice. He went diving with us and showed us the cool Nemo fish as he called them (clown fish). Lunch was great and view stunning. I would highly reccomend to anyone wether it be a couple or a family outting.

The A-Dong operating team staff are attentive, and they provide motion sickness medicine if you are worried about seasickness. The photographer will guide you in taking pictures.

For my first scuba diving experience, I compared many companies and finally chose this one, which was moderately priced at 700 yuan. We met at 8 a.m., and I walked there since I was staying nearby. Because my foreign language skills aren't great, I wanted to arrive at the meeting point early, but the official location was inaccurate. A kind local Thai man helped me look for it for a while and finally walked me there, which was only a few dozen meters away. When I arrived at the shop, they asked if I had a diving license. If not, there was an additional charge of 1700 Thai baht, and photos with the instructor were 500 Thai baht (optional). One of the instructors was a very attentive Chinese girl who took care of me throughout the whole process and explained everything patiently. There were no language barriers, and she stayed by my side the whole time I was underwater. It was a great experience! @For first-time divers, spending several hours on the boat can cause seasickness, which can affect the experience. I hope my experience can help anyone who wants to try scuba diving.

If you're over 30 like me, and you used to enjoy all sorts of exciting activities as a kid, but now you just want to relax somewhere, do a little snorkeling, splash around in the water, go on a boat ride, and chill out in a quiet place, then this activity is perfect for you! Our guide, Upp, was lovely, arrived on time to pick us up, and thoughtfully asked us what activities we wanted to do and if we wanted to take pictures. I highly recommend this experience to everyone. It's a super small, mini-group tour, with the guide providing transportation and taking care of the entire day's activities. Highly recommended!

BEST BOAT RIDE EVER!!! we had so much fun, the guides are very accommodating, friendly and take very very good photos. The snorkling, the white beach and the speed boat are the best.
