I was on a dive trip in February 2000. It was a wonderful experience...probably one of the best of my life. It was my first dive trip, and I had just been certified a month earlier in Australia. I learned a tremendous amount from your guides, and everyone helped me learn this wonderful sport. I will never forget my 35m dive at Hin Daeng, my first night dive at Hin Muang, or the amazing stormy night dive near Koh Adeng. On this stormy dive, I turned off my light, stirred up the glowing plankton, and watched as the lightning strikes lit up the sea floor, while watching the rain drops penetrate into the sea! It was an epiphany-like experience that I will never forget. High Class Adventure was wonderful.
Thanks Wolfgang and Evi!
