How to read this
The cheapest Open Water in Komodo is 14,500 THB and the most expensive 16,800 THB, a spread of 16 %. Most of the spread is not the training, which follows the same agency standards everywhere, but group size, boat, accommodation bundles and whether the certification fee is included. Ask any shop those four questions before comparing prices.
