Dive Buddy
Where the legend began — Kampung Genting, since 2010
Built on a deep passion for sharing the underwater world, Tioman Dive Buddy has grown from a single island operation into one of Malaysia's most respected dive education providers — a PADI 5-Star Instructor Development Centre that has shaped over 30,000 divers.
A Legacy of Excellence
Registered under TIOMAN DIVE BUDDY (M) SDN. BHD. (201001039904 / 923829-U), TDB was founded in 2010 on Tioman Island. We deliver the complete PADI pathway — from Open Water all the way to PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor (OWSI).
Under the guidance of experienced PADI Course Directors, we've cultivated a thriving community of passionate and highly skilled dive professionals across Southeast Asia.
