    I took the AIDA II Beginner Freediving Course with Regina and Niko. Coming from scuba diving, I really underestimated how physically and mentally challenging freediving is. But Regina, who was my instructor in the ocean, was so compassionate and patient! Regina and Niko’s passion for diving is really infectious, so even though I could only pass the pool requirements for the certification, I still had a lot of fun. I 100% recommend Freedive Koh Tao! PS. Their dogs are super cute.

    JOYNME at Freedive Koh Tao! One stop shop for Freedive courses - AIDA certification, and all snorkelling and freediving gears. We got our flippers from here for a really good price and good quality too! The owners Tom and Tommy are amazing freedive instructors 😊 and of course, there are many other instructors and fellow freedivers here too 🤗 Thank you for an amazing time. We can't wait to come back 🤩

    Absolutely loved the learning process here. Completed my AIDA2 today. I come from almost zero diving experience. Charlie was my instructor and was very patient and observant and helped me build my skills slowly through the course. I came in with a congestion but Tom was very supportive and suggested some things I could do to be ready to dive, but I had the choice to not continue in case I was still congested. I had no problems equalising and went on with my course, no issues. Everyone at the shop is very friendly and supportive too. Highly recommend

    Took Aida 2 and 3 in Freedive Koh Tao! I absolutely recommend this school to learn and improve at any level. Niko, Regina and Tom are awesome instructors! I got there without any knowledge and left with a lot. Also I had a blast while diving with them! Cheers guys !! Agustin

    I had a great experience at this freediving shop. I had AIDA 2 course with Charlie and Tom. The instructors were not only patient but also incredibly observant, making sure to address any issues I encountered during the course. Their unwavering dedication to our progress was truly commendable; they poured all their energy into ensuring we had the best learning experience possible. I couldn’t have asked for a more attentive and committed team. If you’re looking for a place to learn freediving with top-notch instructors, this is the place to go

    I did the beginner course Aida 2 with Niko and a coaching session with Regina. Very motivated instructors, make you step by step improve yourself according to your abilities without pressure. Also the owner Tom always has the time for supporting. Highly recommended! Thanks for those great days 🙏 Thomas

    I did the AIDA 2 course as an introduction to the sport and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I found the teachers to be very professional and I felt safe at all times. They also all had a sense of humour and they created a good atmosphere on the course which I appreciated. Hopefully I can go back to Koh Tao sometime to dive more with them.

    Freedive Koh Tao was perfect in every sense. Very serious about the theory, concepts and safety, with a very knowledgeable and experienced staff, that at the same time had an amazing energy and were super fun to interact all the time. Charlie and Regina were amazing instructors, made us feel safe and comfortable about every small detail, and were super fun to hang out with. 10/10 experience, loved doing it and strongly recommend to anyone considering learning freediving.

    Found this place by chance and decided to do my AIDA3 here & I honestly feel that this is one of the best decision I’ve made. Everyone here is so friendly and kind, from the staff to the instructors I really felt at home. Tom (my instructor) was really passionate, professional, funny and meticulous with his teaching & I felt really safe under his guidance. This is definitely a great place to learn definitely check them out! Also the cafe is a vibe ❤️
