Group Dive Trips

This is the second of our two trips this season to the Andamans.

As before, it is designed for divers of all levels, visiting all the highlights of Havelock and Neil, and in a progression that will also help divers “level up” up their skills – 8 dives in Neil and 7 dives in Havelock, followed by an optional trip to Barren Island.

One of our most popular trips, and for good reason: bright skies, wooded islands and nutrient-rich water promising encounters with up to 500 species of marine life, including large pelagics.

The relatively accessible nature of this trip, in terms of price, logistics and ease of diving, make it suitable for everyone, from experienced divers to beginners looking to put their shiny new Open Water cards to work.

For the trip, we will eat, sleep and laze  on a 24m wooden boat for 5 days/4 nights – and also find time to fit in 15 dives and limitless fun.

Ask any experienced diver to name a handful of “must visit” Indo-Pacific destinations and a name that comes a close second to Raja Ampat is Tubbataha.    A UNESCO World Heritage site, this remote reef is only accessible for a few months each year by liveaboard, and is said to contain 75% of the described species of coral and 40% of the reef fish species.

Mantas, whalesharks, epic drop offs, soft and hard corals and even a wreck dive – our trip almost sold out within a week of being announced, and we only have a handful of slots free at present.

We weren’t planning on a Raja repeat for 2025, but after the amazing trip we had there last year, we had to put it back on the agenda.     Land-based again, to give us the most flexibility in choice of dive sites to visit (or repeat), and to avoid large groups – the best way to dive Raja Ampat, we feel – this trip takes us back to Dampier Strait and Central Raja, from where we dive classics like Cape Kri, Manta Point, Blue Magic and more

For this year’s pilgrimage to the crystal blue water of the Red Sea, we are heading south.   Way, way south.   To the rarely-visited reefs of Fury Shoals and St Johns, where we will dive among some amazing coral formations and hopefully have close encounters with turtles, hammerheads, oceanic white tips and a pod of resident dolphins, along with the crystal clear waters and colourful reef fish the Red Sea is known for.

With 21+ dives planned on the schedule, this trip is suitable for all experience levels, so newer divers are also welcome to experience the magic of liveaboard diving and big fish action.

We are back to the Maldives for another short trip hitting the highlights of the Rashdhoo atoll, including the manta cleaning station and the famous Medhuvaroo channel.

With 9 dives, stay with breakfast and all transfers included, this trip provides excellent diving for all certification levels, from experienced divers to newer divers looking to get in some world-class dives

While Galapagos gets all the fame, the islands of Socorros in Mexico and Cocos in Costa Rica offer the same Big Fish action, at a lot lower prices and more palatable water temperatures.    The island chain of Socorros – technically, the Revillagigedo Archipelago – is 600km off the coast of Baja and offers mind-blowing pelagic action:  10 different types of sharks, huge schools of jacks and, at this time of the year, large bait-balls which bring predators in to hunt.

Where, you ask?     Off the east coast of Kalimantan, Borneo lies a group of islands that still remain mostly undiscovered.    Which is a surprise, because the waters here are teeming with turtles, barracuda, sharks (including threshers), mantas and macro as well.       Our trip includes 15 dives spread out over the highlight spots of Maratua, Sangalaki and Kakaban, and is shaping up to be possibly the highlight trip of the year when it comes to sheer variety of marine life.

The Banda Sea has a reputation for being an unexplored jewel in the coral triangle, with vibrant corals, deep walls and great variety of fishlife.  We have chosen to back there on a land-based trip, so that we can pick and choose exactly which sites we want to go to and/or repeat (and there are some sites here that we definitely will want to repeat!).   And did we mention, this is hammerhead season?

The South Pacific islands have a mystique of their own – crystal clear waters, white sand beaches and most importantly for divers, waters teeming with amazing marine life.    Colourful reef fish, wrecks, walls, sharks and mantas… what else do you want?

This will be a liveaboard trip – details coming soon.

Ask any diver to name the best dive destination in the world, and opinions will be split between Raja Ampat and Galapagos.    While the former offers amazing tropical diving, Galapagos offers the best Big Stuff diving, with large schools of mantas, sharks (and yes, that includes hammerheads), jacks and also the chance to dive with playful seals.   This is a painfully expensive trip, no denying that, but it is also one of those places you have to visit atleast once in your life
