Ok I can only give Discovery Dive Center 6 Fins, literally.

When I first contacted Eric via E-mail, he responded within 24 hours, in Thailand, that´s not a matter of course. Although google.maps is not precise about where the center is located, it´s own website is. Therefor it was easy to find. When I finally talked to Eric in person he explained me that I could go for the trip basically whenever I wanted.
Since I was not staying at chaweng beach but at lamai, he offered me a pickup the morning of the dives and when I said I would go by scooter to the shop, he paid the scooter rent for me.

Arriving at the shop on the morning of the dives, I was surprised since everybody was very punctual, which is not common in Thailand, even for other dive centers.

All Equipment was prepared already so I did have to do - nothing. They just took us to the pier where the boat was.

They do have a speedboad with quite a lot of space. The boat makes 35 knots which takes you within an hour to sail rock, which is arguably the best dive side around, because it is rich of marine live. We arrived first so our boat got to be closest to the rock. Although the dive side became very crowded later on, we were not disturbed by the other divers.

The instructors / guides on the boat were all very kind, and more important, professional. Although I did dive just 10 days before, and do not consider myself a beginner, my instructor (Claudio) explained everything fast, but in detail to me so I was not able to forget something.

In the water the dive was really relaxed. A good depth, no hurry, no stress. We had plenty of time to discover all the wonders of sail rock.

Also Claudio, as well as one of the other instructors, were taking pictures which were given away for free.

On the Boat we had an hour break, with prepared tasty food, cola and water also was included in the price.

The second dive was even more relaxed and when we ended the dives and got back on the boat, I did not even have to worry about my equipment - Claudio had taken care of everything.

Therefore I was able to chill in the back on the boat during our ride back.

All in all, great day!
