The dive season runs all year round but from November to May the conditions are close to perfection due to calm seas and brilliant visibility. Divers are transported to dive spots by a common local wooden boat known as a dhoni. The dhoni is equipped with everything for a day’s diving – tanks, weights, emergency equipment, life vests, First Aid & emergency oxygen.
Dependent on when you last dived, an obligatory "check dive" is held, which is a great opportunity to check everybody’s scuba gear and diving skills. For divers who haven't dived for a while, this will also serve as a great refresher course and a nice calm dive site is chosen for the check dive. Ensure to bring logbook and dive certification.
