PADI Discover Scuba Diving

Established in 2005, Barefoot Scuba is the first and longest-standing PADI 5 Star Instructor Development Centre and Resort in the Andaman Islands. Our dive centre offers a comprehensive setup, including six speedboats customised for diving, a filling station and equipment servicing facility, as well as a library and classroom—all designed to support divers at every level, from beginners to professionals.

At Barefoot, we consciously avoid the “dive-factory” approach found in many crowded destinations around the world. Instead, we take pride in delivering personalised service, maintaining a low diver-to-professional ratio. Our large team of well-experienced Instructors, Divemasters, and DSD Leaders are passionate professionals, dedicated to your safety, enjoyment, and learning. The Andaman Islands are home to world-class dive sites, teeming with a diverse variety of marine life throughout the year.

Alongside the dive centre, Barefoot Scuba Resort stands as Havelock Island’s premier dive resort. Nestled on the tranquil Beach No. 3, our property features luxurious AC Sea-Facing Duplex Cottages, comfortable AC Sea View Cottage, and spacious AC Tented Cottages.

An on-site, all-day café serves a range of delicious local and international cuisine. This peaceful and well-appointed resort is the perfect base for discovering the natural beauty of Havelock—both above and beneath the waves.

If diving in the Andamans has long been on your bucket list—come dive with Barefoot Scuba.
