Don't Go to Learn In Asia anonymous September 30 2007, 15:05:41 UTC
It sounds good on the surface, but definately do not go to Learn in Asia / Mermaid's. Half the stuff on that website is crap. They don't even offer many of the courses. Their main guy who started it died last year and it's been going down since. It's now a zoo with no one really in charge. At least one person fails their instructor exams now almost month, they only operate 3 (not the 4 advertised) boats and it's a zoo. Tons of tatooed, pierce backpackers fighting with the middle-age xex tourists for a spot. Cold food and you pay for drinks.

There are much better options. Do a google search for Scuba Diving Internships in Thaiailand and you'll see those LIA liars are past their prime.

Wow, that's the most informative reply to a lj post I've ever gotten. I'll take a second look and see what else I can find. Thanks so much for your advice. Have you lived in Thailand? Do you have any recomendations or other tips?
