点评:Dived with Alex yesterday at Phi Phi. The company is very organised, access permits for the pier, national park fees, meeting time and location were all sorted before hand with a reminder of timings and pin drop for meet sent out the night before.
Got on the boat and got settled, before I realised what had happened Alex had the kit for first dive set up and ready to go.
The bit that really set this apart was the dive briefing, no promises of sightings were made, if anything they were down played, the emphasis was on safety with clear instructions of what to do and all hand signs.
Alex doesn't follow the set route with the rest of the guides, he reads the tide times looks at the currents and goes through options fir different conditions, all decisions are explained so everyone knew what was happening and why.
If I can get back here I won't dive with anyone else.
翻译:昨天和Alex在皮皮岛潜水。这家公司组织得非常周到,码头通行证、国家公园门票、集合时间和地点都提前安排好了,前一天晚上还发了时间提醒和集合地点的定位信息。
上了船,安顿好之后,我还没反应过来,Alex就已经把第一次潜水的装备都准备好了。
这次潜水最特别的地方在于潜水简报。他们没有承诺能看到什么海洋生物,反而淡化了这一点,重点放在安全上,清晰地讲解了所有操作步骤和手势。
Alex不像其他潜水向导那样按固定路线潜水,他会查看潮汐时间、观察水流情况,并针对不同的情况制定不同的潜水方案。他会解释每一个决定,让每个人都明白发生了什么以及原因。
如果以后有机会再来这里潜水,我肯定还会选择Alex。
