Accommodations

Where our Phuket Dive Center is located

Our Phuket dive center is located in Rawai Beach / Nai Harn, in the very south of Phuket Island. The quiet area, away from mass tourism Patong, Karon and Kata, have still largely retained their original charm. Near by there are several idyllic beaches like Nai Harn, Ao Sane and Yanui with good snorkeling. Our attractive house reef is located at Yanui Beach. We are often seen there while diving both by day and night.

Popular Highlights: The Promtep Cape is just around the corner and is a popular view point for breathtaking sunsets. There are many charming guesthouses, hotels, bars and restaurants in the region with free Wi-Fi available. Of course there is no lack of 7/11 supermarkets and Thai massages. Tailors are also well represented, producing tailored clothes for a reasonable price. At Rawai Beach (which is not convenient for swimming) local fishermen offer their daily catch on a small fish market. If required the food will be freshly cooked in a restaurant right opposite. Another “highlight” and point of interest is Phuket’s Big Buddha, just 10 km away. Of course we have a few more insider tips, we would like to share with our guests personally!

Getting around: Access to transport makes life and holidays here very comfortable and helps you to explore the countless attractions of the island. Motorbikes can be easily rented and are cheap (THB 200 to THB 350 per day). Inside information in vacationing on Phuket you find in the Travel + Leisure blog post: A Guide to Vacationing in Phuket

Accommodation: We are always pleased to assist our guests in finding suitable accommodation in the Rawai / Nai Harn Beach districts. There is wide range of accommodation available from low cost B&Bs to 5 star Hotels and beach-side Jungle resorts – and just about everything else in between!!

Transfer from your Phuket Dive Resort for Scuba Diving: All daily boat diving trips start from Chalong Pier, which is reachable within 10 minutes from our dive Centre. The transfer is free of charge from Rawai Beach and Nai Harn district.

You will see on your left “restaurant Nikita’s” on your right a 7-Eleven shop, keep on going to the next traffic light (We Cafe) with the Rawai Palm Beach Resort in front of you at the end of the beach.

Dive Boat in Phuket

Dive Boat

Our diving activities take place on our small and family-run dive boat. On our own dive boat MV Matchanu we enjoy diversified diving without time pressure in a very relaxed atmosphere – away from Phuket’s usual diving industry.

Equipment Workshop and Equipment hire

Aloha Diving has a fully equipped dive workshop – with all the tools and spare parts (for most makes of equipment) that allow us to service and repair your equipment at short notice if required. We also have a full range of quality diving and snorkeling equipment for hire – so you don’t need to worry about bringing any of that “heavy stuff” on your International flight and risk being overweight!!! If you want to be absolutely sure we can meet all your equipment needs you can order what you need (and specify sizes) online through the Aloha Diving Phuket.

Located at our main office the dry room is not accessible for unauthorized persons. Your dive gear will be rinsed by our staff. The customized bamboo hut enables fast drying in the shade with an unbeatable airflow. The equipment dry room can take up to 26 full sets of scuba diving gear.

Dive Equipment Dry Room

If you have your own diving equipment, you know how much space it takes and how long it takes to dry. For this reason, you can store your equipment during your diving holiday, at no additional cost, in our dry room. We will wash and pack it for you, so you don’t have to deal with it in the hotel or even come to the dive center to collect it. We will guarantee that it is ready to use when and where you need it – and of course will take it to your dive boat so it is ready for your first dive for the day!

Restaurant

Have a break in the Restaurant, which is located at our dive center. The restaurant offers a wide range of Thai food, Western food and snacks and accommodates its guests in a beautiful and spotlessly clean environment.

We're a family of seasoned divers, and this is our first time in Thailand. My expectations were contained, because I thought this beautiful country is not exactly world class in terms of diving. I was WRONG!Alice, the lovely lady who runs the shop, has this uncanny gift to turn almost every dive into something unique. Seahorse for example: I see one every 300 dives, and this is my second. Assuming 50 USD for one dive, that's a 15000 USD value! She also set up a drag race between me and a black tip reef shark; I crossed the finishing line in P2, not bad for a human :).All in all, these guys have my warmest recommendation. Heil Switzerland!

It was an extremely great experience, cery organized dive center, and they do care about their customers perfectly. Their diving gear is excellent and organized, much better than orher companies in terms of details and type of gear they are providing. Also, they know the area verry well which is really needed to be safe and to see the most out of the diving sites.

Wir haben von meiner Schwester die Adresse von Aloha Diving erhalten. Unsere kleine Gruppe hat sich für einen Schnuppertauch-/ Schnorchelausflug entschieden und es hat sich wirklich 100% gelohnt. Alice und Marc haben uns perfekt betreut. Unsere Kids waren begeistert nach ihren zwei Tauchgängen und auch wir haben unsere Schnorchelgänge genossen. Wir können Aloha Diving nur weiter empfehlen. Sehr professionell alles erklärt! Sehr gerne wieder.(Translated by Google)We have received the address of Aloha Diving from my sister.

Aloha Diving is absolutely a top notch dive shop in Phuket combining Swiss hospitality with outmost professionalism and attention to customer’s needs. I had a pleasure of having a truly boutique and private diving experience with Alice off Phi Phi Islands in early July 2019. Everything, from booking on a very short notice only 2 days in advance to saying goodbye on a pier at the end of the dive day, was a 5-star experience. If you’re looking to avoid a conveyer style, tourists overcrowded Phuket’s dive shops and want to have a customized client-centric, safe & enjoyable diving experience, then Aloha Diving is that place!

Wir haben insgesamt drei Tage mit Aloha diving verbracht. Es hat Riesen Spaß gemacht und die Eigentümer sind uns von Anfang an entgegen gekommen. Simon war sehr freundlich bei der Beratung und hat uns alle Infos die wir brauchten gegeben. Alice hat uns vor Ort betreut und sich um das organisatorische gekümmert. Mark der Tauchlehrer der uns auf dem Boot und Unterwasser begleitet hat zeigte sich auch sehr bemüht und professionell. Einfach nur weiter so :) Kann man nur empfehlen.(Translated by Google)We spent a total of three days with Aloha diving. It was great fun and the owners came to us from the beginning. Simon was very friendly with the advice and gave us all the information we needed. Alice took care of us on site and took care of the organizational. Mark the instructor who accompanied us on the boat and underwater was also very helpful and professional. Just keep it up :) Can only be recommended.

Update vom 30. März 2019: Was soll ich noch groß schreiben liebe Leute..Der 5. BESUCH bei den Beiden mit Aloha und du kommst an und weißt einfach, hier bist du richtig. Ein wunderbarer Tauchtag nach Koh Racha Yai und Noi mit 3 Tauchgängen. Kommt einfach und genießt DAS WAHRE TAUCHABENTEUER! Es wird euch gefallen. Danke an Mark für den tollen Tag! :) -----------------Update 2nd November 2018: Heute mal auf Deutsch..Der vierte Besuch bei Aloha Diving in Rawai auf Phuket und mal wieder 5-Sterne Service! Trotz relativ neuer, widriger Umstände durch verschiedene große Bootbesitzer, die versuchen die kleineren Tauchschulen ausbluten zu lassen und kräftig im Preis anziehen wollten, lässt sich Aloha nicht kleinkriegen und sticht jetzt mit wesentlich gemütlicheren Booten und zwei Deluxe Tauchgängen in See. Die Boote sind etwas kleiner, Personenanzahl insgesamt auf 15 begrenzt, was es ehrlich gesagt wesentlich angenehmer macht und trotzdem genug Platz an Bord ist. Verpflegung wie immer super, die Crew fantastisch und was der Oberhammer ist, die Tauchzeit ist unbegrenzt. Der erste von zwei Tauchgängen war 70 Minuten!!! Der zweite ca. 60. Alles ohne Stress, ohne Hektik, jeder solange er Luft hat. Dafür wird gesorgt. Nicht wie auf den großen Booten wo man ständig gehetzt wird. Alice hat sich super viel Mühe gegeben, alles bis ins kleinste Detail er- und geklärt und sich wunderbar um mich gekümmert. Waren eine Gruppe von 2. Was soll man mehr sagen? Auch Simon stand wie immer mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Eines ist sicher, Simon und Alice werden mich jedes Mal wiedersehen, wenn ich vor Ort bin. Danke euch für diesen schönen, sehr fischreichen Tag und euren außergewöhnlich, exzellenten Service! Aloha und bis bald wieder hoffentlich!Richard___________________Update 27th March 2018: Third visit and stay at Aloha Diving and amazing again like all the time before! Every time you're with them, you feel very familiar and close to them. First time for me to meet Alice, the wonderful lady also in the office with Simon, who told me everything about my next possibilities in things of diving and adviced me perfectly. Had a great trip again to another spot for me. Phi Phi and Sharkpoint was wonderful to dive, perfect conditions underwater and also on the boat with that perfect organisation and of course the transfer from the hotel before, even if some hours booked before. My instructor Tony was very helpful, experienced and open minded. Thanks to you too Tony! Last but not least, Simon, thanks for all of your good and safe organisation! Guys, you're really great, thanks a lot again and hope to dive with you soon! Best regards & AlohaRichard__________________Update 20th Oct 2017:Decided one day before in the afternoon to join this great adventure again and had a another very cool and exciting diving trip. Different locations than yesterday, same great boat, same great and nice crew (always very helpful), same perfect instructor as yesterday (many thanks to Klaus again) and a lot of other fishes (also a shark), reefs and also a wreck but ten times bigger as yesterday. It was a great tour guys from Aloha Diving! Thanks again for these amazing two days! Best regards! -----------------------------------Fun-Diving with Aloha Diving on 19th Oct 2017I was driving by the way to Rawai, looking for a Diving company in Phuket and saw Aloha Diving. Simon (Part CEO/ very nice and experienced) told me everything what I want to know about Fun Dives and the Advanced Open Water Course, because I made my Open Water 4 weeks ago on Koh Tao. Decided to practice with Fun Dives was a good decision. Klaus, my personal Instructor (very competent and experienced too) told me everything to need about the region, showed me incredible beautiful fishes and as a highlight dived through a old wrack. It was a perfect day, perfect conditions, perfect team, perfect boat with all Inclusive. Fantastic breakfast, lunch, afternoon cakes and Drinks for free. A very big thank you to Simon and Klaus! Hope to see you soon again Guys! It was a pleasure for me!(Translated by Google)Update from March 30, 2019:What should I capitalize dear people ..The 5th visit to the two with Aloha and you arrive and just know, here you are right.A wonderful day of diving to Koh Racha Yai and Noi with 3 dives. Just come and enjoy THE TRUE DIVE ADVENTURE! You will like it. Thanks to Mark for the great day! :)-----------------Update 2nd November 2018:Today in German .. The fourth visit to Aloha Diving in Rawai on Phuket and again 5-star service! Despite relatively new, adverse circumstances by various large boat owners who try to bleed the smaller dive schools and wanted to attract strong in the price, Aloha can not get on and off now with much cozier boats and two deluxe dives in the sea. The boats are a little smaller, total number of people limited to 15, which makes it frankly much more pleasant and still enough space on board. Food as always great, the crew fantastic and what the Oberhammer is, the diving time is unlimited. The first of two dives was 70 minutes !!! The second about 60. Everything without stress, without hectic, every as long as he has air. This is taken care of. Not like on the big boats where you are constantly rushed. Alice made a great effort, everything in the smallest detail clarified and looked after wonderfully to me. Were a group of 2. What should one say more? Also Simon was as always with word and deed aside. One thing is for sure, Simon and Alice will see me every time I visit. Thank you for this beautiful, very fish-rich day and your exceptional, excellent service! Aloha and see you soon again!Richard___________________Update 27th March 2018:Third visit and stay at Aloha Diving Every time you're with them, you feel very familiar and close to them.

One Day Trip auf die PhiPhi Island, einfach ein Traum! Drei Tauchgänge waren dank der Guten Organisation von Simon & dem Team möglich. Bei Aloha Diving habe ich mich sofort gut aufgehoben gefühlt. Es wird großen Wert auf Sicherheit gelegt, ohne Tauchcomputer gehts nicht ins Wasser (bei der Ausrüstung incl.) . Das kannte ich von KohTao bisher so nicht. Außerdem hat Simon für uns tolle Bilder gemacht, so konnte ich mich ganz auf das Tauchen und das genießen des Tauchgangs konzentrieren, ohne störende Kamera in der Hand. Vielen Dank, ich empfehle Euch gerne weiter!(Translated by Google)One Day Trip to Phi Phi Iceland, just a dream!Three dives were possible thanks to the good organization of Simon & the team. At Aloha Diving I felt immediately good hands. It is very important to safety, without dive computer is not in the water (with the equipment incl.). The not I knew from KohTao been that way. In addition, Simon has made great pictures for us, so I could concentrate entirely on diving and enjoying the dive, without disturbing camera in hand. Thank you, I recommend you to continue!

Everyone said go to Thailand and do the diving and that's exactly what we did. My husband booked an Open Water Course with Aloha Diving and he was so exited and I had my doubts if I can do this or not. As expected my husband did alright and did almost everything from first try and I struggled with few skills. I have to say without Simon, our instructor I wouldn't be able to do it. He was so patient and chilled, controlling the situation at all times, and helping me to overcome my fears at my own paste. I would definitely recommend Aloha Diving for all underwater activities no matter which diving level you are and Simon as the best instructor for all girls out there who are overthinkers and have doubts about venturing into open waters. Thank you Aloha Diving and Simon, keep in touch!

Fantastic experience, couldn't recommend more. Three of us signed up for the Open Water Diver course, 2 beach dives and 2 boat dives. We were lucky to have a super relaxed instructor and another trainee instructor to ourselves, which particularly helped ease me when I had a mini panic attack on first entry in the beach dive. The equipment seemed state of the art, from the deep container pool at the training centre to the wetsuits, regulators, diving computers etc. And we got some amazing photos in the mix! They seriously went above and beyond, and set a really high bar to beat for our future dives!

Amazing diving in Phuket! Small group, no more than 15 people. Simon had great communication and very responsive from first point of contact. Many personal touches in customer service. As I was diving solo and was fairly new, I was assigned a dive master, Marc, to dive one on one with. Mark was very patient and educational along the way. I highly recommend this group. They are more concerned with enjoying the dive and customer service rather than overcrowding and rushing through to maximize their earning potential. They also were conscious of my vegetarian diet and were able to accommodate when the included lunch was served. They will not disappoint!

First time to Phuket and decided to do my open water course. There are so many diving schools in Phuket and spoilt for choice but very glad I had chosen Aloha! My instructor was Marc. He is a very experienced, patient and knowledgeable instructor who gave me a lot of diving tips and assurance and always ensured safety first. Even though it was a course with exams involved, it didn't feel stressful and instead it was a relaxing and leisure experience for me. I knew I was in good hands. Thank you Marc, Alice and Simon for the warm hospitality and laughter on board. No regret spending a bulk of my holiday on diving as it was the highlight and most enjoyable activity of my trip. Beautiful dive sites, fun and friendly crews and fellow divers. Will definitely be back for fun dives in the future! Thank you for the beautifully taken pictures too! Great to have them as my memories. Happy to return home as a certified Open Water Diver with Aloha and the journey of the beautiful underwater begins!

Found this place on Travel + Leisure magazine. What was supposed to be a three day course turned into 6 and I cancelled my other plans just to keep diving with Simon and Alice. These two have a real passion for diving, and you can feel it with the detail and care they take to ensure your dive experience is top notch in every way. Patient, kind, understanding, reassuring, challenging, yet encouraging, and very hospitable. If you’re learning to dive, brushing up, or just want a great guide these are your people. Small intimate boat, great crew, excellent experience all around. I would give it a million stars if I could!

An insgesamt 4 Tagen hatte ich die große Freude, gemeinsam mit Simon tauchen zu gehen. Es war eine sehr entspannte Atmosphäre auf einem nicht überfüllten Boot. Ich bin froh, mich für Aloha Diving entschieden zu haben, um folgenden Dingen aus dem Weg zu gehen: - Massenabfertigung beim Tauchen- strikte Zeitpläne- strkte TourenvorgabeBei Aloha Diving reagiert man spontan nach Wetter und Auslastung eines Tauchplatzes, wohin man fährt. Dies macht es zu einem unvergessenem Erlebnis!Danke ans Team!(Translated by Google)On a total of 4 days I had the great pleasure to go diving with Simon. It was a very relaxed atmosphere on a not crowded boat. I am glad to have chosen Aloha Diving to avoid the following things:- Mass processing during diving- strict schedules- strict tour requirementWhen Aloha Diving one reacts spontaneously to the weather and utilization of a dive site, where to go. This makes it an unforgettable experience!Thanks to the team!

We just had two dives with aloha diving but these were just amazing. The team was great, professional and relaxed. Comfortable boat and just a small sized group. We loved that there was no fixed schedule so the divespots could be choosen spontaneous.And we saw a whaleshark!!!

When I am visiting Phuket I always end up diving with Aloha in Rawai because the company provides me with quality diving in a relaxed way. They understand that not everybody wants to be on the big boats, crammed with tourists, visiting the busy dive spots. Our last trip was on board the Poseidon. This boat can easily fit 15 to 20 divers but we were only a small group which was fantastic. We had all the time and space for laid-back diving and guess what? We discovered a new boat wreck! I definitely recommend this trip. Next I will be taking the 3 day trip to Phi Phi. I cant wait! 😊

When I am visiting Phuket I always end up diving with Aloha in Rawai because the company provides me with quality diving in a relaxed way. They understand that not everybody wants to be on the big boats, crammed with tourists, visiting the busy dive spots. Our last trip was on board the Poseidon. This boat can easily fit 15 to 20 divers but we were only a small group which was fantastic. We had all the time and space for laid-back diving and guess what? We discovered a new boat wreck! I definitely recommend this trip. Next I will be taking the 3 day trip to Phi Phi. I cant wait! 😊

Wir haben ein Schnuppertauchen gebucht, es war wirklich toll. Es hat alles perfekt funktioniert, weniger bürokratisch als die Konkurrenz und beim Preis war echt alles dabei. Tauchlehrer war richtig kompetent und freundlich. Wer in phuket tauchen möchte, den kann ich aloha diving nur empfehlen.
