Dear Divers and
everyone who is interested in Scuba Diving!
Welcome
to
Koh Samui Easy Divers!
We are a PADI-Five Star IDC-Centre, which means that you can do almost
every PADI Dive Course – from Discover Scuba Diving all the way up to
the Instructor Development Course, we’ve got it all in our program!
Our dive school is well established here on Koh Samui – founded in 1987 and
run by an international management.
Our
dive operation offers a large training centre at Lamai Beach with fully
computerized and air-conditioned class rooms, a swimming pool, where you
can experience your first breaths underwater in a relaxed and safe
environment and of course our own boat, the
M/V Seastar, which
takes us easily and comfortably to all our amazing dive sites in the
Gulf of Thailand.

The
M/V Seastar allows us
to offer you a unique diving experience and the relaxing atmosphere on
the boat guarantees for an enjoyable day. There is no need for a ferry
transfer and we can avoid crowded dive sites easily.
The dive sites offer easy diving conditions, the currents are usually
mild, visibility between 5 to 30 m and the depths are ideal for
beginners as well as for experienced divers.
There is a lot to see
at our dive sites of course – the warm tropical waters of the Gulf of
Thailand offer a rich aquatic life and an underwater landscape full of
variety and adventure.
Our top quality well maintained Scuba Equipment guarantees for your
safety and comfort during your dive.
Safety is our strongest concern – but you still won’t miss any fun! We
dive in small groups of maximum 4 divers to one highly professional
Instructor or Dive Guide, so they can focus clearly on the needs of
every diver. Even if you are travelling without a ‘dive buddy’, you still
can join us and dive with one of our groups.
If you are interested in going one step further and become a
professional diver you are more than welcome to join us. Divemaster
Courses and Instructor Development Courses are run frequently – contact
us for detailed information!
Have a look in our ‘treasure
box’
and you will see, what is there to discover in Neptune’s paradise!

MEDIA RELEASE
Koh Samui, 03. March 2006
Easy
Divers Koh Samui Goes ECO with the Project AWARE Go ECO Operator
Campaign
Easy Divers Koh Samui is
the latest PADI dive centre to be awarded with Project AWARE Go ECO
Operator status in 2006.
Project AWARE Foundation, the dive industry’s leading non-profit
environmental organisation, launched the Go ECO campaign into the Asia
Pacific region in 2005. The main objective of Go ECO is for dive
centres to minimise their impact on the aquatic ecosystem whilst
contributing to environmental, economic and cultural conservation.
Dive centres are required to meet best practice environmental guidelines
and commit to the Project AWARE Go ECO philosophy.
“Koh
Samui Easy Divers’ is delighted to be awarded with the Project AWARE Go
ECO Operator status for 2006. As a Go ECO Operator we are
committed to providing dive experiences that enhance visitor awareness,
appreciation and understanding of the local aquatic environment,” said
Marita Fassbender, Course Director and Branch Manager of Easy Divers.
Joanne Marston, Coordinator, of Project AWARE Asia Pacific added, “We
are pleased to recognise Easy Divers Koh Samui as a Go ECO
Operator. We look forward to working with them to implement
environmental best practices and educate tourists about how they can
travel responsibly.”
Go ECO
Operators also demonstrate a commitment to conservation and pledge to
follow the Go ECO Operator guidelines.

DIVERS
ALERT NETWORK
Easy
Divers Koh Samui is proud to support DAN
Asia-Pacific (DAN AP). The Divers Alert Network (DAN) is a global
network of not-for-profit, member-based, dive safety organisations
working for the safety of all divers through education, research and
training.
DAN AP
provides Worldwide Emergency Evacuation Coverage and optional Dive
Injury (Treatment) Insurance Services for Members. In addition the
organisation is responsible for funding and/or manning 24-hour diving
emergency hotlines throughout the
Asia-Pacific region.
DAN AP is
a part of the International DAN Federation of Dive Safety Organisations
with worldwide Membership presently exceeding 300,000.
Wherever
members live or dive around the world they have peace of mind knowing
that DAN is available 24-hours a day, 7 days a week to assist in the
event of an accident/illness.
Why
is it so important that as Divers we are protected with DAN Membership &
Dive Injury (Treatment) Insurance?
It’s all
about being prepared for the unexpected, namely dive accidents and
illnesses. It’s essential that divers have a reputable organisation to
call that will be able to co-ordinate a rescue effort and get them to
the most appropriate treatment for their injury or illness. And then
there is the issue of cost. DAN protection ensures the diver will not be
lumbered with the burden of a potentially hefty invoice in the event of
an accident or illness.
An Example
In 2007 DAN was involved in the evacuation of a paralyzed diver from the
Solomon Islands to Australia. The evacuation cost was around AUD$90,000
(as an aircraft had to be sourced from far away). In addition, the
treatment costs were in excess of US$30,000, plus on-going expenses.
The
essence of DAN Membership & Dive Injury (Treatment) Insurance is about
being prepared. DAN offers members peace-of-mind, which comes from
knowing they have the experts in diver accident management to call in
the event of a diving accident or illness.
