About Nina

Originally from the charming province of Yasothon in Northeastern Thailand, Nina first fell in love with scuba diving on the Great Barrier Reef back in 2017. After completing her professional training, she spent four wonderful years teaching in Koh Tao, helping divers of all levels discover the magic beneath the waves.

For Nina, diving is as delightful as a stroll through the park — sometimes calm and serene, other times bursting with excitement. She lives for those heart-thumping encounters with big marine life, yet it’s the tiny critters, especially nudibranchs, that never fail to capture her heart.

Always exploring, always smiling — both above and below the surface — Nina is passionate about making every dive unforgettable.
