Scuba diving for beginners
Absolutely fantastic experience! I went as a solo female and was my first time diving. The team were great slow and patient. The whole day was very well organised and my instructor pointed out many different fish/ marine life! Cham islands has lots of corals perfect for the first dive. Tigerfish Diving is a great company, and the food was good too!
Response from the operator: Hi! Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We’re really happy to hear that as a solo female, you felt comfortable and supported—especially since it was your first time diving. 😊 It’s great to know you enjoyed the team’s calm, patient approach and that your instructor helped you spot lots of marine life. Cham Islands are indeed perfect for first dives with all the beautiful coral, and we’re glad you had such a well-organized and memorable day. We’re also thrilled you enjoyed the food! Thank you for choosing us and we hope to see you back in the water again soon! 🌊🩵

A must
Had a brilliant day, wife was terrified as she's a non swimmer, guy's looked after her from start to finish with one on one care and never left her side throughout the 2 dives,constant reassurance enabling her to overcome her fear. Lunch was really nice and filling,boat was comfortable with free tea, coffee, water and fresh fruit
Response from the operator: Hi! Thank you for your fantastic review. We’re so pleased you both had a brilliant day, and especially glad to hear your wife felt comfortable enough to complete the two dives despite being a non-swimmer.

Cham Paradise
Amazing dive. Plenty of fishes, barracuda, puffer fish, lion fish. Lunch was by the island beach and very sumptuous. Then you get an hour to lounge around by the beach with plenty of hammocks to lie down under the palm trees and feeling the sea breeze on your face. Island life at it's best
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear you had an amazing dive and enjoyed the vibrant marine life. It’s great that you loved the beach lunch and had time to relax in the hammocks under the palm trees. We strive to provide the best island experience, and it sounds like you truly embraced it! We hope to welcome you back for more adventures soon! Warm regards,

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Scuba Diving Tour in Cham Island for certified divers or Beginners: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hoi An.
How much does Scuba Diving Tour in Cham Island for certified divers or Beginners cost?
+
Prices start at $155 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hoi An usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Scuba Diving Tour in Cham Island for certified divers or Beginners take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hoi An is not rushed.
Is Scuba Diving Tour in Cham Island for certified divers or Beginners worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 10 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hoi An, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Scuba Diving Tour in Cham Island for certified divers or Beginners?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Scuba Diving Tour in Cham Island for certified divers or Beginners suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 10. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 8-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Scuba Diving Tour in Cham Island for certified divers or Beginners?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hoi An can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hoi An and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Scuba Diving Tour in Cham Island for certified divers or Beginners start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hoi An within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Hoi An?
+
On Outty we rank every Hoi An experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include HOI AN Hidden Gems in Rural Villages & River Islands PRIVATE TOUR, Coconut Jungle Eco & Hoi An City Tour With Boat Ride, Cooking Class Hoi An:Local Market, Basket Boat, Fishing & Cooking. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Hoi An?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Hoi An?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
