BEFORE YOU GO · CAUTIONARY DETAILS
Dive within your certification
A card states a depth and a set of conditions. Going beyond either on holiday, with an instructor who has known you for an hour, is how divers get hurt.
Never hold your breath
The first rule of breathing compressed air, and the one that kills people who forget it. Breathe continuously on every ascent.
No flying for at least eighteen hours
After multiple dives, longer. Book the flight home with a clear day in between, not the same evening.
Touch nothing
Coral takes decades to grow and breaks in a moment, and a great deal of what looks inert is alive. Buoyancy control is not just a skill, it is how you avoid destroying what you came to see.

Instruction was patient — I came in nervous and finished wanting to book the next level. Dorms were tidy and the common areas were where the group actually gelled. Never went hungry, and the tea appeared exactly when it was needed.

Kit was in good condition, which matters more than people realise. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either. No hesitation recommending them.

Visibility was excellent and the boat ran on time every morning. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either. The lead was calm and knew when to slow the group down. Worth every rupee.

Conditions were poor for two of the days, which nobody can control, but the schedule wasn't adjusted. The team read the group well and adjusted without making a thing of it.

Great few days in the water. Briefings were clear and nobody was pushed beyond their level. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. Never went hungry, and the tea appeared exactly when it was needed.

Questions people ask

Five to ten metres on a good day, which is modest — this is not the Andamans. What it is, is the closest real dive site to Mumbai and Pune by a very long way.
