For me there was no question that I would do my Open Water certification with Blue View Divers. All of their instructors are highly professional and driven by the fascination for the ocean and sealife.
My instructor was Ryan. I had the absolute privilege of having Ryan as my dive instructor and being the only student in my batch. This meant that I received his undivided attention and personalised teaching throughout the course. Ryan is a remarkable instructor with great experience and expertise and I truly believe he has a gift for working with people.
I have to say that I shared the interest for the oceans and the marine life ever since, but I also have a lot of respect for the power of the sea. Therefore I started my open water course with excitement but also doubted myself a lil bit for keeping the nerves together.
However, all my nervous thoughts drifted away when we were going through the process. Ryan is so calm when teaching and I felt like he never doubted my abilities, so all I had to give in return was trust and believing in myself as well.
After finishing the theoretical part and the confined water (as long as I know, blue view divers is the only dive company on Phi Phi Island to have their own swimming pool for training purpose. Which is great for getting comfortable with the gear and knowing you don’t have to start out in the open), the first dives in open water were just breathtaking (never stopped breathing though?).
I can strongly recommend everyone to go for this experience with the divers of blue view. The exercises were done in no time and after that we just enjoyed. The four dives were only my first glimpse of the underwater world, but I have already seen so many sharks, turtles, lionfish, cuttlefish, squid, even stingray & a seahorse! I feel super lucky to share those memories with them. Diving with the team was definitely a magic moment for me! Thank you! Can’t wait to come back. - via
