One of the best dive experiences we’ve had. They came to our hotel to do the paperwork the day before our dive, picked us up at our hotel the morning of our dive, and took us on a wonderful trio of dives. The boat is spacious and comfortable—they think of every little need. People on the boat were at various levels, getting different training, and having just a variety of needs that they managed with ease, giving a great day to all. We loved it so much, we went back two more times, and they were able to take us to a different spot for all our dives. Our dive masters were friendly, cheerful, and experienced—this is a company that is chill and relaxed where you want them to be, and detail oriented where it matters. We would definitely use them for all our future Lombok dives. Among the usual, we saw turtles, white tipped sharks, octopuses, barracudas, and a great little wreck. The reef was also beautiful to explore.

I did my 3-day Open Water Diver Course with Scuba Froggy in Senggigi, Lombok. I attended the course solo and there was one other person doing the course with me. Our dive instructor Akmal was very patient and supportive throughout the course, allowing us to become at ease in the water and grow in confidence as the course went on. Akmal was also very thorough with the theoretical / exam side of the course and was proactive in running through the material as required at convenient moments in between dives. We were able to swim in locations with coral reefs and marine wildlife (including some big turtles!). Akmal & the crew were keen to ensure we saw these things and that we got the most out of our time on the boat. I was also able to do an extra dive on top of the course dives for a discounted rate. I overpaid for the course initially but this was resolved with Alicja by the time I had completed the course. They were able to pay me back in cash. No problems at all there. They also provided transport to & from the dive centre / boat location each day from my accommodation in Senggigi. Overall, I thoroughly recommend the team at Scuba Froggy Senggigi if you are thinking of completing your Open Water Diver Course on Lombok. Thanks again!
