My GF did her OW there. Rob and Verné were super kind and flexible with our requests. We could dive together during her course and it was wonderful!
We have had an amazing time with Verne and Rob. It was my first time diving but they completely put us at ease and made sure we were comfortable. Would definetely recommend!
We were looking for a fun relaxed dive as a family who last dived 3 years ago and wanted to get back into it. Verne was very helpful with the booking, even as we had to move it by a day. After a quick pool refresher, she took us out today with half the family snorkeling while the others did two dives. The dive sides were only minutes away on the big and calm boat from the pier which made for a very relaxing and convenient experience for all aboard (no way to get sea sick on such a short ride). Verne guide us professionally, pointing out all kids of animals and even took some pictures and sent them. You be in good hands with her and enjoy nice diving around Phi Phi. We certainly will do it again.
Verné and Rob are not only extremely competent divemasters but also so friendly and enthusiastic about scuba diving, I immediately felt at ease as a solo diver. We did some amazing dives in the area. Everything was extremely relaxed, friendly, professional and I really appreciated the fact that we were a small group of divers (unlike the mass tourist diving companies in Tonsai). Many thanks to you both, I’ll definitely be back ??
First time experience of doing Scuba diving but I think I will do it again and again because of Leisure Dive Center Team specially Ms. Verne and Mr. Rob It was wonderful diving experience. Instruction was so clear for your safety and location were we dived was amazing.
I had the pleasure of diving with Rob and Vern during my time in Phi Phi, and I can’t recommend them highly enough.With over 400 dives under my belt and 20+ years of diving experience, I can honestly say that I thoroughly enjoyed my dives with them.Was it the quietness of the dive boat at the start of the season? Perhaps.Was it the vibrant health of the reefs teeming with huge shoals of fish? Maybe.Was it the included choice of delicious meals in the 2-dive package? Possibly.But if I’m being honest, the real reason I had such a great time was the exceptional nature of Rob and Vern. They are incredibly friendly, professional, and have a wealth of experience in the diving industry. They’ve been diving since they were kids, literally!I spoke to representatives from all three dive shops on Laem Tong Beach, and it became evident that they are not all the same. Diving with people who genuinely want to give you the best experience is a world of difference compared to diving with someone who treats you as source of income. Just goes to show that not all PADI dives shops follow the “Put Another Dollar In” mantra.I’m absolutely certain that I made the right choice by choosing Rob and Vern so much so that when I return to Phi Phi I’m 100% sure I’ll be diving with Leisure Dive Center again.
Our recent diving experience with this dive shop was deeply disappointing and concerning. Not sure what others are going on about with all the positive reviews here, as our experience was the complete opposite. From start to finish, the trip was marred by poor management, a lack of safety protocols, and unprofessional behaviour from one of the dive guides.During the first dive, I had difficulty equalizing while descending. Reviewing the underwater footage later, it appeared that she had dragged me down, which contributed to my inability to equalize properly, forcing me to abort the dive and resulting in me having to seek medical attention for my ear. This was particularly concerning as I’ve never encountered such issues in my previous dives nor had any trouble with buoyancy control, raising questions about her approach and technique and qualifications. Dive professionals are expected to remain calm and supportive under pressure, but her behaviour was anything but. She was impatient, dismissive, and openly rude to both me and my partner, as other divers on board also observed and later informed us on, including calling out vulgarities to my partner.Safety protocols were glaringly absent throughout the trip. For instance, the boat was under operated, as there was only one crew member, the one operating the boat, which is inadequate for a dive operation of this size. There should typically be a minimum of 2 crew members to help out.After the second dive, the boat pickup was in a poorly chosen location, putting my partner at risk of injury. He narrowly avoided a serious incident, almost cutting him up in pieces, and the boat even began driving off at one point while I was still holding onto the ladder. The dive master’s behaviour exacerbated the situation. She used inappropriate language toward my partner during a stressful moment, which was unprofessional and unnecessary. Other divers on board shared similar sentiments about her lack of composure and organization. Additionally, I was informed by the others of her making negative remarks about me to them, which was uncalled for and only added to the unpleasant atmosphere.Her boyfriend, who runs the shop with her, the other dive guide on the trip, displayed defensive and dismissive behaviour when we raised our concerns afterward. His responses felt more like standard, scripted customer service platitudes than genuine acknowledgment of the issues we highlighted. While he seemed more experienced, neither of them appeared equipped to handle challenging or potentially dangerous situations.This experience left us questioning the dive shop’s commitment to safety and professionalism. Several fundamental safety protocols were either overlooked or ignored, which is unacceptable in any dive operation. The other divers on board, who are extremely experienced, echoed similar concerns based off their observations, reinforcing our belief that this was not an isolated experience.Essentially, we found this dive operation to be poorly managed and unsafe, with unprofessional behaviour from these guides who seem to be out of their depth, especially the female, and highly defensive, contributing to a stressful and unpleasant experience.
I really recommend this to anyone who comes to Phi Phi Don to Dive with this leisure school, amazing experience, really helpful when feeling nervous because this is something I haven’t done before, Rob made me feel really relaxed and he took us through all the safety measures in the swimming pool before taking us on a breath taking view of under the sea!

As a novice open water diver with a passion for nature, I recently enjoyed a leisure diving experience near my resort on Ko Phi Phi Don. The instructors, Rob and Verné, were incredibly friendly and dedicated, ensuring that every moment was enjoyable. Each tour included two dives, averaging about 50 minutes, and they expertly guided us to some fantastic underwater locations. The experience was so rewarding that I decided to dive again the following day, eager to explore more of the vibrant marine life.
