Absolute Empfehlung, wenn man auf Phuket seriös und gut betreut tauchen will. Wir sind spontan Donnerstag Mittag... vorbeigefahren und haben einen Tagestrip für Freitag gebucht. Beratung toll, Leihmaterial super in Schuss und der Tag mit Mizuho & Ben auf dem Boot war einfach großartig. Genau so muss es sein.read more

If you’re tossing up between dive shops or even going for a dive, I highly recommend!

My partner and I (Aussies,... both Advanced divers) did a three dive day trip with Rumblefish while staying in Kata. Neither of us have a single complaint.

Camillo was our dive instructor and he was awesome. Super friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I had so much fun with him and 90% of the time out of the water I was laughing because he is hilarious.

Our gear was in great condition, it all fit and worked perfectly.

There was plenty of tasty food, sweet treats, water and hot coffee/tea between every dive. There was clean toilets/fresh water showers and plenty of space on the boat for everyone to relax. The boat staff were all super kind, helpful and approachable.

We had pretty good visibility on all three dives. The shipwreck was hands down both our favourites. A lot of fish and cool coral!

And the dive shop organised pick up and drop off to our hotel. So easy!read more

I am an old tek diver. I was diving in cold deep water of lake Baikal in Russia, did ice diving with zero visibility,... enjoyed drifts of Maldivian Islands, cool waters of Tenerife, Crete, was diving in Malaysia, Phillipines and some 30 times visited beautiful Egypt. But still most of all I love diving in Tai. I adore a combination of fascinating Temples, spicy food, nature and smiling people. My task this time was to master sidemount. I wanted to start with shore divig and then a longtail and a boat. I applied to several dive centers near Karon and Kata and they kicked me off :)) to Rumblefish. Mr. Thien was very cooperative, sent me weather broadcast and answered by whatsapp faster than lightning:). I needed help also in surching for Apeks service kit and he helped me to buy it (even delivered to a hotel). DM Mr. Eak helped me with cramps underwater and showed lots of fishes , moray, squids etc. I was also diving from a boat with Ben. He is ex military and very professional. I love diving with military guys. They are highly disciplined, fast and smart. And if everybody around starts panicking they normally smile and just do all is needed as per instruction untill all the rest smile too:)). I do recommend this dive center and all people I met. Especially I loved transfer to the sea on Mazeratti:)read more

I had a fantastic experience with Rumblefish Adventure and recommend them 100%. They were super organised,... fantastically communicative, professional, patient, fun and beyond helpful. They've been established in Phuket for years so they are super knowledgable about where to dive, the weather etc etc. The owner Tien is so friendly and easy going - my instructor was Ben who was just amazing. Thank you everyone for a brilliant experience. I will be back for more!!read more

Very personalised diving experience. Thien and Au operates the diving outfit that focuses on the experience of... customers. Shop is very near to Kata beach that offers fantastic shore dives. Very flexible in their customized dive arrangements. I've had a fantastic time diving with them. Will absolutely return to dive with Rumblefish.read more

I’ve had the pleasure of spending the last month in Phuket, mostly just diving. From taking (multiple) courses to fun... dives to giving me a home for a month, Rumblefish has been absolutely incredible. From the leadership of Thien, to the hospitality of Au, to the knowledge of Judith, my experience has been unforgettable. Don’t even think twice if you want to dive in Phuket, just send them an email and do it. I 100% promise you, you won’t regret it!read more

I totally recommend Rumble Fish adventures for training in scuba diving. Thien and his team have been outstanding in... not only teaching but taking care of everything beyond just the course. I thoroughly loved staying at the hostels and learning from Camillo and Thien. Thank you so much!read more

I highly recommend Rumblefish! The people were so nice, friendly and helpful. I learned how to take care of diving gear... here. Other places did it for us, but Rumblefish encouraged us to do it ourselves, which was very educational, and a good opportunity to learn more about the equipment. We also had some issues that came up during our Open Water certification course. I got dizzy in the morning, and I was really afraid of being underwater.. but they helped us get through the skill-learning sessions at our own pace. Moris is a good instructor. Funny, friendly, and also very knowledgeable. We learned a lot from him. He made us feel safe, so we could overcome our issues. I hope to learn more from him someday! Lots of thanks to Ophelia, too. She comforted me when I was having some troubles. I was able to dive with confidence because I knew she was behind us. Thanks, guys! We will come back for another fantastic experience!read more

Highly recommended, I got my open water certification from here. My instructor Joe was very good and patient . Friendly... place , friendly people, chilled out yet professional attitude.

I guess the most important and stand out thing about rumblefish would be that the group's here are very small especially when opting for certfication,which I feel is very important and safe.
Oh yea and good diving off the shore of kata beach!!!read more
