Signing up for a Divemaster course in Thailand with Khao Lak Explorer was one of the best decision I made. Khao Lak Explorer team is family style, friendly team, everybody got along, I feel like Khao Lak was my new home really soon after arriving there. The diving was amazing, manta ray, whale shark and all the daily “usuals”, turtles etc… Now I made the choice to extend my year break to continue in the diving industry. A life changing experience !
