👍👍 Five years ago, I came to Koh Tao with no plans and no friends. One thing led to another, and I truly found my family at Roctopus. From day one of Open Water to becoming a certified DiveMaster.

👍👍 We had an amazing dive yesterday! It was a morning dive and we went to green and white rock and saw many many fishes. Probably you’ll will find somewhere else as well, but the best thing. The guides/instructors! They were really friendly and made us feel so comfortable. Especially for us who only ha...

👍👍 Couldn‘t have imagined a better dive school to do my Open Water than Pura Vida - and I don‘t even speak spanish.

First, I reached out to Verena, and she helped out super caringly to set up the just right package for my personal needs. This included accommodation, the open water and the advanced...

👍👍 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.
