Wow, we booked this for our last day in Kenting and it really didn’t disappoint. Noah and his wife were friendly and super helpful, as the tides were different on one side Noah took is to this lovley bay, he showed us how to paddle very safely and safely conscious. After our SUP we snorkelled and OMG we saw a huge turtle an amazing experience. Noah had a cold flask of coffee or tea and a peanut butter sandwich for us in the middle of the Ocean! I can’t recommend them enough it’s been a highlight of our trip

The whole park is very large and you can spend half a day there. You can save 50 yuan if you buy it with Klook on holidays!

This is my first time to experience boat diving on Taiwan Dive. I hope the coaches can pay more attention to the condition of the novices. After all, the pace is different when you go into the water with the veterans.

I really like this place. There is food, drinks and fun. Although the food is simple, there are lean meat porridge, toast, steamed buns, cold noodles, side dishes, ice cream, drinks... There are many items. The fun is even better. There is a small soup X bear, plus a bouncing factory, bumper cars and water bombs. It's super fun.

The room is clean and convenient to go out. The door is right at Kenting Street. It is very lively at night. The room is quite spacious. There is a parking space. There is also a convenience store downstairs. If you are too lazy to walk, you can rent motorcycles downstairs.

There is food to eat and fun to do. Unlimited drinks and food. Unfortunately, there are only 2-hour and 3-hour prices. Although you can renew the time, it is strange to come back for renewing after it has been broadcasted, so most people choose to forget it. Come back next time!

Originally booked a single-day introductory dive, but the experience was so enjoyable that we immediately scheduled another session two days later. The staff are exceptionally friendly and the instructors demonstrate great patience. You will be given with a thorough briefing at the beginning and first practice in the shallow end to ensure you're completely comfortable before going to the actual dive. Instructor will capture plenty of stunning photos for you and is eager to share diving knowledge whenever you're curious. As long as you remain relaxed and enjoy, you'll receive ample dive time even during an introductory session. Recommended for anyone wanting to dive in Kenting
