Seafari is a PADI 5 Star Instructor Development Center behind the Mike Shopping Mall area on Pattaya Second Road. The PADI listing checked on 26 July 2026 gave daily 08:00–19:00 hours, the 262 AOP 1/8 address, phone +66 81 762 4187 and four listed PADI instructors. Shop hours are not a boat timetable; the booked product controls the meeting and return plan.

The operator homepage, checked on 8 September 2026, publishes +66 90 256 5174 in its contact details and WhatsApp link. This differs from the July PADI-derived number above; the older number has not been rechecked, so neither is described as disconnected.

The operator site covers supervised first dives, recreational certification, certified-diver trips, technical training and professional development. PADI lists scuba, TecRec, snorkelling, conservation and Emergency First Response activities. The IDC label describes the centre's professional-training scope; it does not prove that every course or instructor is available every day.

PADI also lists air, Nitrox, Trimix and mixed-gas fills; equipment sales and rental; an onsite classroom; air conditioning; free Wi-Fi; a retail shop; a dive boat and parking. Equipment servicing is listed for cylinders, regulators, buoyancy-control devices and dive computers. The centre languages listed are English, Cantonese, Malay, Thai and Indonesian, but the chosen date still requires a language confirmation.

Send the exact product name, date, participant count, ages, certification status, recent-dive history, swimming confidence, equipment sizes and hotel location. Ask about the planned boat and sites, meeting point, pickup, expected return window, food, weather or cancellation policy and the applicable post-dive flying guidance.

Complete the operator's medical documentation honestly. A “yes” response can require qualified medical clearance; do not conceal a condition to preserve a booking. Certification courses may add knowledge, confined-water, open-water and swimming requirements that should not be transferred automatically to the Discover product.

Still unconfirmed

• No space was confirmed for a particular date.
• Pickup from a particular hotel and a guaranteed return time have not been confirmed; the Discover product specifies central Pattaya and an approximate 08:00–15:00 day.
• No claim is made about visibility, wildlife, boat condition or instructor quality.
• Prices for other trips and courses are not copied into this record because the retained dated price is for the exact beginner product.
