点评:I spent a long weekend here with these guys and it was honestly one of the best beach holiday I have ever had. The beach was so clean, the water so clear, and the ocean life plentiful. Whilst intimidating at first with all the e-learning PADI makes you do, Kap made the practical side fun and really accessible. He was reassuring to the three of us, all beginners - I was a solo and was joined by another couple. I could feel my confidence boosting with each dive and by the end we were all on a high receiving our certification after just 2.5 days. All the training is in the sea, which is more fun I think than swimming pool sessions as you get comfortable with the mild discomforts of walking on sand, navigating coral/rock and dealing with the salty water from the start. I couldn't believe how easy it was to get to Tioman from Singapore, and Recon who mans the WhatsApp was really responsive in advising me regarding ferry bookings, logistics, etc. Kap the instructor is genuinely so passionate and knowledgeable about diving. It was obvious to me his years of professional diving experience, as well as teaching experience. They don't have an en site chalet or restaurant but there is one they partner with right next door with a beach view! And plenty of other larger dive schools about 100m away if you want a crowd to go hang with at the beach bar. As for the Ocean 13 site, it is quiet, relaxing, and perfect for a solo like me or a couple, or even if you want to book as a group!
翻译:我和这群朋友在这里度过了一个长周末,这绝对是我经历过的最棒的海滩假期之一。沙滩干净整洁,海水清澈见底,海洋生物也十分丰富。虽然一开始PADI的线上课程让我有点不知所措,但Kap教练让实践环节变得轻松有趣,而且很容易上手。我们三个都是新手——我是独自一人,和另一对情侣一起——他给了我们很大的鼓励。每次潜水后,我都能感受到自己的信心在不断增强,最后,仅仅两天半的时间,我们就拿到了潜水证,大家都兴奋不已。所有的训练都在海里进行,我觉得这比在游泳池里练习更有趣,因为你可以从一开始就适应在沙滩上行走、在珊瑚礁/岩石间穿行以及与海水接触带来的轻微不适。我简直不敢相信从新加坡到刁曼岛竟然如此方便,负责WhatsApp的Recon也回复得非常及时,给了我很多关于轮渡预订、行程安排等方面的建议。教练Kap对潜水充满热情,而且知识渊博。他多年的专业潜水经验和教学经验显而易见。他们没有自己的小木屋或餐厅,但隔壁就有一家合作餐厅,可以欣赏到海景!如果您想去海滩酒吧和大家一起放松,附近100米左右还有许多其他规模较大的潜水学校。至于Ocean 13潜点,它安静、放松,非常适合像我这样的单人潜水者、情侣,甚至团体预订!
