RatingCharlie, the owner, is one of the most welcoming & heartwarming hosts. The vibes at the bar are wonderful, the food great. Dived for the first time with Goodtimes, was nervous going in but was a wonderful experience thanks to the awesome dive staff. The climbing beta & shop was great. Couldn’t recommend them enough, will be coming back to the island just to hang out here well into the future!
We stayed here for a week with the family at Goodtimes. They were super helpful finding us a good scooter deal, directing us to climbing, and getting us an amazing scuba day. Costs is bang down the middle, not expensive, but not the cheapest. Would recommend to anyone visiting Koh Tao.
Big thanks to you guys! Charly, Myo, Mark and Shai, you are all amazing:) Had an awesome time climbing and giving scuba diving a try.
I had a wonderful time with Goodtime, we went climbing there with Charlie (real routes! I advise it being a climber) and had our open water dive with Lydia, Livia and Andrea. I was so happy with the course that I went to the Advanced right after! Team is amazing, I feel lucky we had such good instructors, with good vibes and the well-applied pedagogy 🙏
We did the guided climbing with Myo and had the best experience! Not only was he so kind and fun to hang out with but he always was so incredibly knowledgeable about climbing. He knows the wall like the back of his hand which helped me get routes I wouldn’t normally be able to do. He was also so motivating the entire time. 10/10 experience so worth it. Cannot recommend this company or myo enough!!
We climbed one morning with Myo. We got to try several nice routes with a suitable level of difficulty. He was safe and good at guiding.
Starting with a rock climbing adventure is easier than you might think! Begin with a beginner-friendly course, such as the beginner top rope course or abseiling on Koh Tao, where instructors teach the basics in a safe environment. Many first-timers find that outdoor rock climbing on Koh Tao is a great way to experience the sport for the first time.
For outdoor rock climbing, essential gear includes climbing shoes, a harness, a helmet, and chalk for grip. Depending on the type of climbing (sport, traditional, or top roping), additional gear like ropes, belay devices, quickdraws, and cams may be necessary. We provide all the equipment needed during our rock climbing courses (we love Petzl brand) and we have gear for rent when you’re going out for a guided outdoor rock climbing session.
A sport climbing course focuses on climbing routes that are equipped with fixed anchors, making it ideal for those who want to advance their climbing with more security. By contrast, a traditional lead climbing course teaches you how to place your own protection as you climb, which is essential for climbing on routes without any fixed anchors.
Absolutely! Our guided outdoor rock climbing sessions are tailored for all skill levels, including beginners. Our guides will assess your experience and choose routes that match your ability, ensuring a fun and rewarding climbing experience on Koh Tao. If you’re travelling without your climbing gear, don’t worry. We have gear for rent, and if you hire one of our guides we’ll rent you the gear at 50% off.
Rock climbing is an excellent full-body workout that builds strength, improves flexibility, and enhances cardiovascular endurance. It’s also a great mental exercise, improving problem-solving skills, reducing stress, and boosting confidence through achieving goals. To top it all of you also get access to the best views of Koh Tao – what’s not to love?
Here on Koh Tao we use the French grading system. Our beautiful granite rocks on Koh Tao have climbs ranging from 4 to 7c perfect for every climbing adventure from beginner to advanced!
