Scuba Cat Diving

Scuba Cat Diving was founded 20 years ago in Phuket, having been based solely on Patong Beach, we decided to expand our presence in Phuket by opening a Second Branch at Naiharn Beach, a beautiful location at the South of the Island.

At both locations expect to find our quality training and customer service. We are the only PADI 5 * CDC Centre based in Rawai/Naiharn, this is the highest PADI Dive Centre achievement possible. PADI CDC distinguishes us from the rest.

Both locations also have a full range of Diving and snorkelling retail as well as classrooms providing great locations to start your diving holiday. This has allowed us to have our dive centre at both ends of Phuket Island so is more convenient for our guests.

Scuba Cat Diving is still under British ownership and management and they have the only female course director teaching IDC’s on the island. Along side this we were the first DDI (Disabled Diver International) instructor trainer centre in Asia and the only one in the South of Thailand.

Scuba Cat has a long history of being eco aware, from laying artificial reefs, bi-annual underwater clean ups and winning awards from Project AWARE. We are the only Reef Check Centre on Phuket.

Following the changes we made on the retail side of the business this year Scuba Cat has also made changes in the type diving we are offering.

As always we conduct our PADI courses to the highest standards, with emphasis on quality rather time. IDC’s are available every month along with Tech diving up to Instructor level.

We are planning to run 3 boats this year, all of which will have Nitrox available and limited numbers of divers on them, this will enable us to have 3 different schedules which will suit all divers and snorkelers.

Daytrips to the local islands on board MV Scuba Fun will run 3 dives per day at different locations. New for this year there will be freshly cooked meals from our own kitchen.
Half day trips to the local reefs of Phuket on MV Scuba Sport, new for this year allowing boat diving on mornings, afternoons and night dives.

Our liveaboard MV Adventure will run trips to both the North Andaman and South Andaman this season, allowing for 3, 4 or 7 day trips offering the best diving Thailand has to offer. She offers uncrowded conditions, by having reduced numbers on the boat.

Also new for this year we are offering tech diving charters for both daytrip and liveaboards.
