 FIRST TIME DIVERS
Learn to scuba dive or snorkel or get PADI certified with Discovery Divers!!
 Koh Samui is a wonderful place to learn to snorkel or scuba dive as it has safe warm waters offering year round access to some of the best snorkeling and scuba diving in Thailand. Our snorkel trips and PADI scuba diving certification courses are open to anybody aged 8 and above in average fitness and health.
We train you with care and pride so that you dive safely and with confidence.
At Discovery we pride ourselves in producing certified divers who can look after themselves and their dive buddies safely and with the confidence that is achieved only by thorough training. We offer a complete range of PADI courses for beginners, from a single scuba dive experience up to the internationally recognized certification of Open Water Diver.
PADI (the Professional Association of Diving Instructors), is the largest diver organization in the world and PADI diver certifications are recognized worldwide. PADI courses are set apart from their competitors by their superb diver education techniques and well designed course materia ls which make learning to dive easy, safe and fun.
We take no short cuts with our training, and you will be trained to the highest standards personally by one of the owners, all of whom are experienced PADI Instructors passionate about the sport of diving and about your safety and enjoyment. We progress at your own pace with flexible scheduling to make the best use of your precious vacation time. Class sizes are small, often with just one or two people (you and your buddy!) at no extra cost to you. Family groups are especially welcome at Discovery and private trips can easily be arranged.
All of the rental equipment required is included in the price of the course. There are no hidden costs at Discovery!!
If you would like to take a course whilst you are diving with us, PADI standards require you to complete the PADI Medical Statement (download HERE).
Please read the form carefully and if you have to answer YES to any of the questions you will need to have the form signed by a suitably qualified Doctor to state that you are medically fit to Scuba Dive before you arrive. Please note, Medical Doctors cannot certify themselves medically fit to dive by signing their own forms.
We give you the best available skills, knowledge, experience and time
 Dive TODAY!
Many people mistakenly believe that learning to scuba dive means spending hours in a classroom whilst everybody else is enjoying their vacation and having fun. This is simply not true! At Discovery we fully support PADI's "Dive Today" philosophy which puts diving first.
After attending an equipment familiarization and safety briefing with your PADI Instructor, we take you diving. It's as simple as that! You can be in the water DIVING for real under the watchful supervision of a PADI Instructor, in less than a couple of hours from the start. This is made possible by the enormous flexibility built into PADI courses. After all, diving is supposed to be about having fun and exploring the fascinating colourful and peaceful beauty of the underwater world, and you can't do that in a classroom!
