Acabo de obtener la certificación PADI Open Water en el centro DPM Diving en Gili Trawangan y no podría estar más orgulloso y contento con toda la experiencia. El trato que nos han dado durante todo el curso ha sido absolutamente excepcional desde el primer minuto.
Quiero hacer una mención súper especial a nuestra instructora, Martina, que ha sido de diez. Su paciencia, profesionalidad y buena energía hicieron que el proceso de aprendizaje fuera fácil, seguro y divertidísimo.
Lo recomiendo al 100% si estás por Indonesia y quieres aprender a bucear.

Martina was an incredible instructor. It was my first time diving and doing my open water PADI and I always felt comfortable and confident in the water. We started learning the gear and had say 1 in the pool where we practiced some safety techniques. Then in the second two days we had some incredible dives and I saw several turtles, three reef sharks, eels, lion fish, nemo, fighting shrimp and so many fish!!

The boat crew and staff were lovely, all speaking great English, Spanish, Indonesian, Catalan, Portuguese.

Definitely check our DPM for a dive and say hi to Martina if you want to do your open water cert.

Muy contento,
Hunter de Australia ❤️❤️

We joined their snorkeling tour on ATM Island and had an absolutely wonderful time(Jul 14th). The whole team is super professional, and the staff-to-guest ratio is perfectly balanced—there were nearly as many crew members as tourists, so every single person received attentive, personalized care throughout the whole journey.
Shoutout to our snorkel guide Madi, he was outstanding! We visited three different snorkeling spots, and Madi voluntarily took tons of stunning underwater photos and videos for our group at every stop. Madi also patiently helped watch over and tow the kids while we swam. We’re so grateful for his thoughtful, warm service.
100% recommend this tour to families and snorkel lovers!

Los instructores Rafa y Viki han sido increíbles. Nos han enseñando muchas cosas y guiado en todo momento. Era mi primera vez y he ido de la mano y me he sentido muy segura. Ha sido una experiencia increíble donde hemos visto muchísimas especies marinas. El fotógrado Rogger nos ha hecho muchísimas fotos chulas. Una experiencia increíble!

Ha sido un verdadero placer realizar el bautismo de buceo en DPM. Rafa fue super atento, muy didáctico y cuidadoso con nosotros.
Sin duda repetiré con ellos, porque volveré sin dudarlo.

Y nos vemos en Tailandia!
