Tech Diving Thailand is a great place to learn Technical Diving. I went from Tec 40 to Tech Instructor.. They offer many other courses like cave diving, equipment repair, gas blending, sidemount, rebreather and many more. Instructor trainer David Polley is very experienced and has a lot of diving knowledge that he happily shares. If your on Koh Tao don't bother Tech diving anywhere else, do it all at Tech Diving Thailand.
Great tec course with great instructors Dave and Tom. I also did the course with a friend I've been diving with for a few years and so felt very comfortable getting used to all the new skills and techniques with a very fun and motivated group! I eventually planned and completed my own dive, dived a brand new wreck and even got to spend a decompression stop with a Whale Shark! cannot wait to go onto my Tec 45!!!
I did my TDI Trimix course with David Polley on Koh Tao in 2012. Being a PADI instructor and a TDI Full Cave Diver before, I can really say that this course put me and my diving skills on a new level. Not only the knowledge about and usage of different breathing gases, but also all the other technical diving techniques that are part of this course. Since we went on a wreck diving expedition after the course, Dave conducted the course very thoughtfully, providing lots of tipps and tricks based on his year long experience and made sure that me and my equipment would be perfectly prepared for the expedition. Great job, Dave, thanks a lot!
Did my tech 40 & tech 45 with Tech Diving Thailand Tech and I was very happy with the experience. Doing tech is an interesting experience. Even though I'm an open water scuba instructor, everything is so totally different with tech that I felt like I was doing my open water course again. Schmike (Mike W.) was fantastic as an instructor. He was super knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable all the way.
I did my Tec deep Instructor course, intro to cave and dive shop operation course with Dave at Tech Diving Thailand. Had an awesome time, very professional outfit and knowledgeable instructors who could answer my questions in detail and made everything easy to understand!! Would highly recommend!!!
So I recently did my PADI Tec 40 & Tec 45 with Dave from Tech Diving Thailand, I have to be honest I was a little apprehensive going simply because I really didn't know what to expect. However, when I met Dave for the first I realised that it was going to be a good course. Daves knowledge is extensive but what struck me most was his passion & enthusiasm for this particular area of diving, throughout the theory sessions we would often digress into the background behind the theory and to watching videos of his many exploits diving on historical wrecks. The practical part of the course was not easy but this was a plus point, there was no coasting along through the skills, Dave made the emergency drills as realistic as possible but also ensured that my understanding of the skills was up to scratch. There was no real section of the course that I preferred as I found it all challenging and therefore enjoyable.
BSAC Sports Diver QualificationThank you Dave for completing my Sports Diver training qualification in record time! I had barely finished my Ocean diver course when Dave suggested that I pursue diving to the next level. In less than 2 months, we covered the entire diving theoretical content in 6 lectures, went for shore dives, sea dives, etc... And finally, passed the exam with no trouble at all!
Many thanks again!

I Just finished my TDI Cavern, Intro to Cave and Advanced Trimix with Tech Diving Thailand and the courses were great fun as well as challenging. We went to mainland Thailand and started with really shallow dives in a place called Spitting Spider Cave. Thankfully, the spider was off duty when we were there! From there we gradually moved beyond cavern dives and on to greater depths. As the dives got a little more complicated, my cave diving skills improved step by step and it all started feeling quite comfortable. Dave is a great instructor - he won't let you cut corners, but at the same time you're ready for the challenges coming your way. Everything was organised professionally, the hire equipment was good, too -can't wait to go back and complete my Full Cave course!
I did my Open Water with Dave when I was 54. I’m not a brilliant swimmer and I didn’t like having my face in the water let alone underwater so it was very challenging for me. However Dave proved to be a brilliant teacher and taught me the skills I needed. I’m his Mum so of course you’d expect me to be biased but actually I had no idea of his teaching ability. I also thought he might be a bit impatient with me but not at all. He was so professional. Being underwater was a fabulous experience.
