We have been safely and successfully serving satisfied guests on Koh Lanta for over 20 years. Starting from our shop and pier in Saladan, we take our guests to the beautiful diving spots in the Andaman Sea with two of our own speedboats.
​
Shop
​
In our cozy shop in Saladan you can relax after the dive, drink a coffee, write a logbook, etc. Your rental equipment is also selected here before the dive so that everything fits and fits later. In addition to the lounge and a shop for diving accessories, our training room is also located here. A shower facility is also available.
​
Security
​
Despite our enthusiasm for diving, safety is always our top priority. All of our multilingual employees are trained PADI Divemasters or instructors.
Our two own speedboats have all the necessary and useful safety features. Our high-quality rental equipment is regularly maintained. Dives and courses take place in small groups with a maximum of 4 guests per guide or instructor. Filling (Nitrox on request) is done with our own Bauer compressor.
​
Relaxed
​
We pick up our guests at their accommodation with our pickup truck and drive them to our base in Saladan. From there it's a relaxed start at 9:00. Our speedboats guarantee short and quiet trips to the dive sites and back. In the early afternoon we will take you back to your accommodation. Alternatively, there is also the option of picking up and returning guests at certain points on the beach by speedboat. More details in the shop.
​
Service
​
In addition to the free transfer between accommodation and hotel, we also take care of your equipment. We take care of washing, packing and storing your equipment (including your personal equipment). We want to dive, not swim a marathon. Our attentive boat crews will help you dress, board and disembark. The boats pick up the guests at the ascent point. Food (drinks, food, fruit) is provided.
Boats
Short journeys to Ko Lanta's world-class diving sites with our specially designed speedboats (dive sites up to 60 km away in 30 to 60 minutes.)
​
Pla Bai (SwordfishH)
37 ft offshore speedboat, 2 YAMAHA engines, 200 HP each
​
Pla Loma (dolphin)
39 ft offshore speedboat, 2 YAMAHA engines, 200 HP each
​
Our dive boats can accommodate up to 16 guests with comfortable seats as well as storage space, awning, stern platform and on-board toilet. The tanks are safely stored and easily accessible. Two ladders of different lengths ensure one easy entry into the boat.
​
The boats have a safety unit, oxygen, GPS receiver and a Marine radio system. On-board toilet.
When you get into the diving boat, your diving basket is already under your seat. After the boat briefing we go to the diving sites.
When you arrive at the diving spot, you have enough time and space to set up your equipment. Our crew will be happy to help you.
Before the dives, each group receives a detailed diving briefing; our boat crew helps with setup, putting on fins and getting in and out. Between dives, have a leisurely lunch, chat and relax.
After the dive, the dive boat will pick you up at the ascent point, so no strenuous swim back! With us you only dive with experienced diving instructors and divemasters. Before the return trip, our crew will serve fruit and drinks. Back on the beach at your hotel, you can register for your next diving or snorkeling trip.
Something else! You don't get seasick while traveling on a speedboat, a speedboat doesn't roll like a large diving ship, a speedboat surfs on the water!

Great team, great diving, saw a lot! A family and relaxed atmosphere in the shop and on the boat! I will be back!
"Fantastic day of snorkling and diving"
​
We chose Lanta Fun Divers for a day of diving and snorkling off the coast of Ko Lanta. Very friendly and professional staff, great organisation and planning, relaxed atmosphere on board and overall a great experience.
My husband and I took the PADI open water course. We had a great time and a very good experience.
Our instructor Fabian was absolutely excellent. Very professional, kind, with perfect English. Really a very nice guy.
All of the team were very kind and helpful.
They picked us up from the beach, with a speedboat, which makes the ride much shorter than in a big bout (half an hour instead of an hour and half).
The equipment was in very good condition.
We highly recommend Lanta Fun Divers, for everyone who wants to experience diving.

Earned my Open Water and Advanced cards here. This dive shop is great with friendly staff and nice services. Miikka was an awesome instructor! Would definitely dive with LFD again!
