Rumblefish Adventure - Similan Islands
The team at Rumblefish Adventure, based right there in the Similans, really know their stuff. We’ve always been impressed by their dedication to proper, thorough training, especially their professional-level courses. If you’re thinking about going pro, or even just stepping up to Rescue or a specialty like Adaptive Diving, this is where we’d send you. They combine serious education with a genuinely relaxed vibe, which makes a huge difference when you’re learning new skills. We love that they focus on smaller groups. It means you get more personalised attention, whether you’re sorting out your buoyancy on an Open Water course or fine-tuning your dive leadership skills. Their instructors are all long-term residents, so they know the Similan sites like the back of their hand. They’ll point out the resident leopard sharks napping under the bommies at Koh Bon, or where the reef life is thickest on the way to Christmas Point. We’ve seen them patiently guiding new divers, making sure everyone feels comfortable before dropping in. They’re PADI pros through and through, but it’s their friendly, supportive approach that sets them apart. Expect a laugh, some solid dive advice, and maybe a few good stories over dinner.
