I had an amazing Try Dive experience at La Bombona! I was quite nervous and even panicked a few times during the first dive, but Armand was incredibly calm, patient and reassuring. He took the time to make me feel comfortable.
Dive into fun · Koh Tao
Join an unforgettable underwater journey with our Fun Dives in Koh Tao, Thailand. Whether you're a seasoned diver or exploring Koh Tao's depths for the first time, our experienced guides ensure each dive is a unique, safe, and exciting experience.
Koh Tao is one of the world's great diving playgrounds — granite pinnacles, shallow coral gardens and a genuine navy wreck, all a short boat ride from Sairee Beach. Each Koh Tao fun dive trip includes a professional guide, full gear rental, and a boat trip to two of the island's top-rated dive sites. Certified divers from any agency are welcome.
We run two boats every day — the AM boat meets at 6:45 am for the calmest conditions of the day, and the PM boat meets at 11:00 am for a slower start. Same price, same two dives — just pick the departure that suits your day.
Price for 2 dives — ask us about multi-dive packages. Not included — mandatory dive insurance (100 THB). All AM fun dives must be paid in full online.
Our dive boat is spacious, comfortable, and fully equipped with all the necessary safety equipment to make every dive as safe as possible. It offers a smooth ride, space to gear up with ease, and a rooftop area to relax between dives. Leaving right from Sairee Beach, it makes your diving day smoother, more social, and a lot more enjoyable.
Insights from our divers
I had an amazing Try Dive experience at La Bombona! I was quite nervous and even panicked a few times during the first dive, but Armand was incredibly calm, patient and reassuring. He took the time to make me feel comfortable.
I returned to La Bombona after doing my Open Water here in April, to do my Explorer 30, Deep 40, and Nitrox courses. I had Vasco as my instructor, and he was fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable on scuba diving techniques and theory.
We had a blast doing our open water course with Carlo and Intza! With no previous diving-experience, the whole crew made us feel both welcome, comfortable and safe throughout the whole experience. Really cool and professional people.
Amazing diving experience. The staff (Carlo Rossi) was very professional and explained the theory with the detail that was easy to understand.
Great dive shop! Me and 3 friends came to Koh Tao with me and 1 friend doing an open water, 1 friend doing advanced open water and 1 friend doing fun dives. Each of us had incredible experiences in our respective courses.
Big thanks to La Bombonera Diving School and my outstanding instructor Martin for this fantastic opportunity to learn a new skill and discover the underwater world! The whole team is incredibly welcoming and friendly.

Around the island
Koh Tao's signature deep site — a granite pinnacle wrapped in anemones, with big schools of trevally and barracuda and, in season, whale sharks.
The Gulf of Thailand's most famous dive — a vertical chimney swim-through, huge fish schools and the best whale-shark odds around. Our Friday fast-boat trip.
The all-rounder just off Sairee — coral gardens, angelfish, blue-spotted rays and turtles. Brilliant by day, magical on a night dive.
A rocky islet off the south-east tip with soft corals, sea snakes and the occasional passing pelagic when the current runs.
A cluster of submerged peaks covered in anemones — groupers, snappers and big schools circling in the blue.
A 48-metre former US Navy ship sunk as an artificial reef — an unforgettable first wreck dive on your Advanced course.
... and way more! Book a dive and explore Koh Tao's wonders with La Bombona Diving!
Absolutely. Any recognised certification works. If it's been a while, pair a Refresh with your first fun dives and you'll be back in the groove in no time.
It depends on the day's conditions and the divers on board — Koh Tao has more than 20 sites, from the shallow coral gardens of White Rock to deep pinnacles like Chumphon. Your guide picks the best pairing for the day, and we rotate sites so repeat divers always see something new.
All necessary equipment is provided by us. Just come prepared with swimwear and a sense of adventure!
While there are age limitations for certain courses, children as young as 10 can start with the Junior Open Water Diver course. Safety is our priority, and we tailor programs to suit different age groups.
No worries — if you've lost your card we can look you up online. We just need the full name you registered with and your date of birth.
A medical questionnaire is typically required. If you answer "yes" to any medical history questions, a physician's approval may be necessary. Safety is paramount, and we ensure all divers are physically fit for the underwater experience.
