We are experienced divers and are able to compare blue corner to other dive bases around the world.
It’s a small dive base, very familiar. Nobody is snooty, from the first moment you feel a warm welcome. The base offers a 2 tank dive in the morning and a 1 tankie in the afternoon. The diveboats are very simple and start from the shore, they have clear signs of aging and are not really comfy. With more than 5 people it feels quite crowded and it’s not so easy to find a safe space for camera equipment e.g. The crews are friendly just like everywhere else.
The dive guides are nice and friendly and give clear instructions for the dives and safety, sometimes the diveplans were a little strange (like diving over a plane sandslope and reaching the reef after 10 minutes) and didn’t seem well thought. But, all in all they were motivated and committed.
The dive sites we saw in 14 dives where all brilliant and healthy, not crowded at all.
Between the 2 tank dive you are offered a very simple but super tasty snack (fried noodles, fried rice and egg) and coffee/water.
As we have been diving in the low season there was enough space on the base to rinse all the equipment and sundry it, but it was already quite busy. I cannot imagine how it might be in the high season.
We used the rental equipment once, which was a little old but well maintained. Everything worked well.
Considering the prices you get a discount if you do more than 6 dives and have your own equipment- if that’s the case the price is really cheap compared to other top diving spots. But, the price you pay is that you don’t have any service- you have to rinse your equipment yourself and set it up and change bottles by yourself, but that in my eyes has its advantages over more luxury dive bases where you always have to rely on others, that they set your gear up in the right way.
All in all a clear recommendation for blue corner dive if you like a familiar atmosphere and a small dive base with welcoming and warm people and top dive spots for a good price. – via
