Very friendly diving team!Posted on Denis Krišťák2 May 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Did my open water course here. Absolutely amazing, Fred was professional when needed, absolutely chill and friendly when there was time for it. As for the course and locations, I cant really imagine much better 👌Posted on Fida Dean28 April 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently organized a diving trip for my office group with Octo Diver on Perhentian Island (25–28 April 2026), and it turned out to be an amazing experience from start to finish. We had a mix of participants doing their Open Water course and fun dives, and the team handled everything smoothly and professionally. A special thank you to Anas for being incredibly attentive and accommodating throughout the planning process. Every request was handled with care and efficiency, which made organizing a group trip so much easier. Huge appreciation as well to Instructor Fred, Koci, Hafiz and DM Apai for taking such great care of us underwater. Their guidance, patience and attention to safety made everyone feel comfortable and confident whether it was their first dive or not. Although the visibility wasn’t ideal during our trip and we had to reduce the number of fun dives, the team managed the situation well, suggesting suitable dive sites and always prioritizing safety and overall experience. All in all, Octo Diver delivered a great experience with a friendly and dedicated team.Posted on Sarah Rozani28 April 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I did my OpenWater with them. For a first timer, they really thought me what I needed to know. The staffs here are really friendly and thoughtful. The knowledge that they provided is great for everyone while maintaining a fun environment. The dive experience on the other hand is something that will bring me back there in the future. With Octo Diver, you will definitely get the full Perhentian experience. Much recommended 👍Posted on theycallmebasy_20 April 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
