Question SDI dive shop/instructor recommendations in Indonesia or SEA

[rainunderwater]

aiming to further my training with SDI. Anyone here have any dive shop/instructor recommendations? The SDI website showed some dive shops available (not all) but those dive shops have very unreliable websites so I couldn't find more information

You're Indonesian right? Better for you to just survey from Google Places, or contact them through Whatsapp. Judging a quality from a website is quite biased, in my opinion. Especially when there's a saying the more sketchy the website is, the more legit it is haha.

I can't comment on SDI specifically, but if TDI then for sure I can highly recommend Marc Crane at Tek Deep Asia (Amed, Bali). Fountain of knowledge for sure. More geared towards tec diving - but I suggest a conversation with him to see if what they offer might actually align with what you're looking for, even if you didn't realise initially.

https://www.tekdeepasia.com/ - contact details on there

that's the thing, the website doesn't put down any numbers to Whatsapp. So I'll either have to call them or email them one by one just to see their course overview

E-mail them and ask for their WhatsApp number to discuss what you are looking for.
