Princess Divers Reviews - What Our Guests Say

Stunning dives!

My partner and I had a great experience from start to finish with Phi Phi Island Divers/Princess Divers. We booked in for a refresher and two fun dives in the afternoon and visited Bida Nok and Viking Cave. Our guide Wass was lovely, patient and enthusiastic and gave clear briefings from the boat. He ran through a couple of skills at the beginning of each dive (regulator retrieval, mask flooding, air sharing), which were done thoroughly but without taking too much time away from the rest of the dives. And the dives were amazing, the seahorse was adorable, the pufferfish and moray eels were dramatic and the enormous schools of fish were stunning. If you're after some beautiful dives, delicious lunch, small dive group size and exceptional crew then I highly recommend this dive center! Date of experience: May 2026

First Scuba Diving Experience

After diving into the world of scuba diving for the first time, I explored many dive institutes. But Princess Divers caught my eye, and I immediately felt they were the best in the Phi Phi Islands. The instructors are incredibly professional and knowledgeable. They clearly explained the rules and instructions before our dive. A huge thank you to my dive instructor Henco! He was absolutely amazing, ensuring we were comfortable and taking us right up close to the reefs and so many marine life forms, which was truly amazing. The entire crew at Princess Divers is top-notch! I appreciate that insurance is included in the package, which I didn’t see at other institutes. Thanks to Elena for capturing such amazing photos and videos during the dive! I would highly recommend Princess Divers to anyone planning to dive in Phi Phi. Date of experience: June 2026

I can only issue an Impeccable Recommendation.

I've been feeling very comfortable from the beginning. Both my taster dive with two dives in total went smoothly. The staff and especially Roman who looked after me and my buddy are all very friendly and incredibly competent and very close to the customer. Our needs were extremely taken care of so that we felt very comfortable both in the shop and on board and later underwater. Our enthusiasm after the taster dive was so great that on our vacation we decided to make our OWD on the spot, this one we also conducted with Roman again. All in all there is abolutely nothing to expose, therefore I can recommend Princess Diving to everyone, no matter whether a professional or an absolute beginner because here everyone is well kept. Thanks for everthing dear Princess Diving Team
