This beautiful island lies 65 miles off the south-west coast of Vietnam and is genuinely unspoiled by time and tourism. Travelers say that " Vietnam is like Thailand 20 years ago". If that's true , then Phu Quoc is like Vietnam used to be 10 years ago.

Phu Quoc is about the same size as Singapore , 600 sq.km and is the largest  of all Vietnamese islands. There are 99 mountain and hill covered in green primitive forests with majestic waterfalls and bubbling streams. The fresh sea breezes and stunning sandy beaches touching crystal clear blue waters make this a true paradise.

Scuba Diving and PADI were introduced to the island during 2002 by Jeremy Stein, better known for his 5 Star diving and Instructor Training Centres in Nha Trang. So whilst diving is relatively new here you have a rare opportunity to be amongst  the first to dive this area and to discover new dive sites. 

Diving is similar to the rest of Vietnam whereby there are not the large pelagics, mantas or sharks. However the hard and soft corals here are pristine and the mass of the small islands to the south of Phu Quoc are home to a huge variety  of small  colourful reef/coral fish, many of them endemic to the Vietnamese waters. The mysterious Dugong has even been sighted here.

All PADI diving and experience  courses are offered here, as well as daily dive trips. Rainbow Divers is the only PADI dive centre on the island and is run by the highest qualified Instructor in Vietnam together with the Rainbow Divers team.

Jeremy Stein is an English PADI Course Director. He has lived in Vietnam for six years and introduced PADI to the country in the late 90's. Jeremy is considered one of the pioneers of diving in Vietnam and he also runs PADI Instructor courses at their 5-Star centres in Nha Trang.

The rest of the team comprises Instructor and Divemasters from Vietnam , France , Scandinavia and England Their primary focus is to ensure that you have fun and safe diving experiences!

Your day with Rainbow Divers begins when we board our 18-meter, purpose built dive boat either in Duong Dong or after a pleasant 45 minute journey to the islands in the south. During this time you will have your briefings  and can enjoy light refreshments. There are 2 - 3 dives of approx, 45 - 60 minutes each with traditional Vietnamese lunch in between. We aim to return  you to your resort around 4pm . We do restrict the number of divers to ensure comfort, relaxation and enjoyable day. Accordingly, we recommend that you book early to avoid disappointment.
