Lanta Diver

PADI 5 Star Dive Center

Lanta Diver is a family run 5 Star PADI Career Development Center (CDC) situated on the beautiful island Koh Lanta on the west coast of Thailand. Lanta Diver has been operating since 1999 so we do have a lot of knowledge about diving around Koh Lanta and the best dive sites around the archipelago of the Andaman sea – the best scuba diving in Thailand. Our main diving sites is Koh Haa, Koh Bida, Hin Bida, Hin Daeng / Hin Meuang, Koh Rok and Kled Gaew wreck.

Lanta Diver offers PADI diving courses, Fun Dives, snorkeling trips and also Divemaster and Instructor training. We welcome all who are interested in Diving, from beginners to pros! Maybe you never tried diving before? In order to give you the best experience we always keep our groups small with not more than four students per instructor if doing a course. If you do a try dive there are only two people in the diving group.

Lanta Diver Koh Lanta operates three very well-maintained boats and all our boats are safe, clean and comfortable. If you choose to go on a snorkel trip, we always provide a snorkel guide to show you around the sites. We also provide life jackets for kids and adults who feel a bit insecure in the water.
