We cater to fun divers, pro divers and groups with tailored programs to suit your needs and all-inclusive packages means that once paid, there is nothing else to worry about. Our island operations are supported by our travel and dive shop on the mainland, where you can book accommodation, travel and buy any equipment you may need for diving, hiking Mt.

When you make your open water dive, you’ll practice some more skills in shallow water to prepare for your adventure. Get ready to: 1) Go over the scuba equipment you use to dive and how easy it is to move around underwater with your gear. 2) Find out what it’s like to breathe underwater. 3) Learn key skills that you’ll use during every scuba dive. 4) Have fun swimming around and exploring. 5) Hear about becoming a certified diver through the PADI Open Water Diver course.
