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.

Boat was crowded. Fine for the diving, less fine for the surface intervals.

Appreciate the honest feedback; we're looking at the pacing on that section.

Visibility was excellent and the boat ran on time every morning. 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. Would send friends their way.

Instruction was patient — I came in nervous and finished wanting to book the next level. Would book with them again.

Instruction was patient — I came in nervous and finished wanting to book the next level. Hostel nights are basic but clean, and that's what the price says. Good value for what's included.

Great few days in the water. Briefings were clear and nobody was pushed beyond their level. Meals were good throughout and the vegetarian options weren't an afterthought. Worth every rupee.

Kit was in good condition, which matters more than people realise. Guides answered every question, including the daft ones. Solid operator.

Questions people ask

It is not the Andamans — visibility off Grande Island runs five to twelve metres. But Suzy's Wreck is a real wreck at beginner depth and it is the cheapest place in the country to try scuba.
