Our Story
YU Dive Khao Lak was founded by Aleksandar Kablar, an experienced dive professional with many seasons of guiding and teaching in the Similan Islands, Surin Islands, and throughout the Andaman Sea.
After years of working in Khao Lak, Aleksandar noticed something missing in the local diving scene – a dive center where service feels truly personal, where divers are listened to, and where quality matters more than numbers.
That idea became YU Dive Khao Lak:
a dive center built on quality, honesty, and genuine care for people.
Rather than rushing through schedules or filling boats, Aleksandar wanted to create diving experiences that feel calm, safe, and shared with friends – the kind of diving he believes in himself.
Our Philosophy
Personal Service From Start to Finish
With Aleksandar actively involved in daily operations, planning, and guiding, every guest receives direct support and clear communication. Each dive trip is adapted to your experience level, comfort, and goals, because great diving always starts before entering the water.
Small Groups, Better Diving
At YU Dive, small group diving in Khao Lak is not a marketing phrase – it’s a core value. Fewer divers mean:
- more space and time underwater
- better supervision and safety
- relaxed dive pacing
- a more enjoyable overall experience
No one is rushed, and no one is left behind.
Safety Through Experience
Years of diving in the Andaman Sea have built deep local knowledge of conditions, sites, and seasonal changes. Safety is reflected in dive planning, equipment standards, briefings, and calm decision-making – every single day.
