About Discovery Divers
Discovery Divers is a premier PADI 5-Star Dive Centre based in Bophut on Koh Samui, offering scuba diving courses and excursions throughout the Gulf of Thailand. With over two decades of operation on the island, they have built one of the most experienced full-time dive teams in the region, guiding thousands of divers to sites around Koh Tao, Koh Phangan, Sail Rock, and Ang Thong National Marine Park.
Their course catalogue spans the full PADI range from Discover Scuba Diving introductions for absolute beginners through to Divemaster and Instructor Development programmes. Certified divers can join daily two-tank boat trips to premier Gulf of Thailand dive sites, where visibility regularly exceeds 20 metres and encounters with whale sharks, bull sharks, and barracuda schools are common. All equipment is maintained to manufacturer standards and replaced on a regular cycle.
What sets Discovery Divers apart is their commitment to small group sizes — most boat trips cap at six divers per instructor — ensuring personalised attention both underwater and during briefings. Their Bophut shop sits just minutes from the Fisherman's Village night market, making it easy to combine a day of diving with an evening exploring Samui's food scene.
