Shop policy

We are very flexible when it comes to choosing dive sites and dive planning. We like to listen to what you are looking for as a customer and all diving activities are neatly arranged in groups of maximum 4 divers per dive leader.

Finally, we offer long dive times of one hour for Koh Tao standards, of course depending on air consumption. This with the intention of giving more time to enjoy the underwater world.

Impian Divers is deliberately kept small by not working with freelance diving staff. Freelancers are much less involved in the diving school philosophy and usually do not have a work permit.

Diving equipment

Our diving equipment is optimally maintained. Because, as it should be with a Dutch dive center, our safety standards are very high. All scuba tanks are visually inspected once a year by an accredited inspection team here on Koh Tao. The breathing apparatus also receives an annual service with new service kits. Mouthpieces, masks and wet suits are soaked in a water tank with bleach after each use. The filter of the compressor is changed every 25 hours, aiming to ensure clean air during dives.

Facilities

We have 3 classrooms, all equipped with air conditioning and fans. There are also lockers for valuables and free tea/coffee and drinking water. The diving school is within walking distance of the arrival pier, where our boat is also moored, so we don't need taxis or longtails to get on board.

Own boat

Our boat is officially registered with the Thai Marine Inspection with permission to use it for diving activities. On board we have a filling station, 40 tanks; weight belts and plenty of lead. In addition to 12 litre diving cylinders, we also have 8 litre cylinders for the younger ones and 15 litre cylinders for the larger users.

ECO

We have special waste water bins on board so that toilet water and compressor liquid does not flow into the sea. The boat is inspected and maintained every year. On board there is also free drinking water, tea and coffee and the following required safety aspects are present:

• Marine radio

• GPS

• AIS Thailand Tracking System

• Life jackets for every passenger

• 100% oxygen & delivery equipment

• 1st aid kit
