Flipper Diving Club, a PADI 5* Instructor Development Dive Centre, runs daily diving and snorkelling trips to the islands around Phu Quoc. Snorkelers, divers, and passengers all go on the same boat, so even if you just want to come relax and read a book on board while the rest are diving or snorkelling…no problem!
In May, day trips to the South are offered. Compared to the North, the South also has a larger variety of sites to choose from and better diving! Check out the dive sites here.
Do remember to allow 24 hours after the end of your last dive before flying! Be safe.

Prior to diving, you will have to fill out a medical statement to certify that you are fit to dive as well as a liability release form. If in doubt, do consult a doctor BEFORE this trip. You will not be able to get a doctor on the island to provide verification that you can dive. Please also remember to bring your certification card and logbook!
*If you are not sure about diving, but want to see what all the excitement is about, then a Try Dive is an ideal first time experience! Each Try Dive is a 25-minute, one-on-one dive with an instructor. You will dive to a maximum of 6 metres. Please note that the “Try Dive” is not a PADI program or affiliated with PADI. If you are feeling confident and want to learn more, then the PADI Discover Scuba Diving program (see below) is a fantastic option for your first diving experience. Each dive will last ~45 minutes with your instructor, to a maximum of 12 metres.
