Pacifica Diving Center

We went primarily to dive, we were a group of 7. There was no equipment to rent so two of our party couldn't dive. We agreed with the dive shop to dive two days but on the second day the one dive master was apparently ill so we couldn't dive. There was zero interest about our predicament from the staff and no attempt to acquire another dive master even though they knew there was a problem after the first day. The dive boat was totally unfit for purpose and much too small with no facilities for diving, the tanks covered the whole floor and we had to kit up one y one as there was no room, the batmen did nothing, not even collected our fins when we finished our dives. On the last dive the boat left us whilst we were diving as a storm came in and they were worried about capsizing, so we had a longish swim back to shore and a stumble on to the beach with all our diving equipment. The food was a buffet every night in the full board package and was comfortably the worst food I have sampled in Malaysia. The meat consisted mainly of grisle and bone and even at the start f the buffet was already cold. There was minimal choice and the dessert was the same every night - watermelon and either small slices of banana cake or fruit cake. In my room I received electric shocks from the two lamps in the bathroom, the rainshower could not be used unless a button was held continuously in, the hand shower adjustment was broken so it was not possible to raise the height from waist level. To be fair we did manage to negotiate half price for the last dive but it could have resulted in a serious accident. The place caters mainly for local families (with lots of excited young children) and snorkelling.
