An oasis in the middle of the sea...

New Heaven is family owned dive school and yoga center, established on Koh Tao in the gulf of Thailand in 1995. We are one of the first dive schools on the island, but remain one of smallest, specializing in relaxed diving with small groups. We offer all PADI and SSI courses from beginner to professional levels, and with no more than 4 people per group, our professional staff is able to provide a unique and personalized diving experience. We are dedicated to upholding responsible eco-tourism with marine conservation, safety, and quality being our main priorities. Through our coral reef conservation projects and reef check courses, we strive to promote sustainable business practices that will preserve this tropical island paradise so that it may be enjoyed for generations to come.

When you come to our dive school you are not only one of our valued customers, you become a part of the New Heaven family. We are able to offer you a more holistic holiday experience with our Yoga and Ayurvedic health classes taught looking over the pristine Chalok Ban Kao bay. Come discover why our customers come back year after year, because we are sure the people you meet here will keep you coming back as well.

‘Small is beautiful’

Since the beginning we have aimed to live up to our name. New Heaven is a business but one with a different point of view than most. Our main priority is not to maximize profits but is to enjoy the life that the business brings. We call it a new business philosophy, one that can provide a quality service without using up the earth’s valuable resources wastefully. Here we are in the business of diving so we see it only natural to want to protect the environment we are making our living from.

These days the over population of the planet is increasingly putting a strain on its delicate eco systems. Coral reefs are one of the most threaten systems with some reports claiming there will be no reefs left in as little as 50 years. While we realize that the nature is bigger and more powerful than the human influence, we also believe that small steps in the right direction go a long way in finding solutions to our immediate problems. With this in mind we conduct our dive school with a drive and passion to protect the marine eco system, education and learning is an important part of our dive school.
