Important note for Fun Divers

Krabi fun diving is best experienced as an advanced diver. Hence, if you only have an open-water certification, you should pick the advanced diving course. You will head out to the same spots as other fun divers but at the same time, you will get your advance certification. If you do not want to take the advanced certification, we recommend you go for our Bali fun diving trip instead.
