18 m The reef
Dive sites a short fin kick from breakfast.
Four sites we visit every week, chosen each morning by current and visibility. Your guide briefs every dive on a slate, in plain words.
The Garden
Our house reef. Table corals, lazy turtles and the best first dive you will ever do.
The Arch
A swim through framed in blue, with glassfish that part like a curtain.
The Wreck
A cargo ship slowly turning into reef. Penetration only with the right course.
The Drop
A wall that falls away into blue. Hang in the current and watch the pelagics pass.
200 m The twilight
The boat, your home between dives.
Shade, fresh fruit, hot tea after the cold ones and a crew that has hauled every kind of tank. The light fades out here. The welcome does not.

1000 m The midnight
Night dives, by torchlight.
After sunset the reef changes shift. Octopus hunt, parrotfish sleep in bubbles of their own making, and plankton sparks green when you wave your hand. Try it here: move to stir the plankton, tap to ping the dark.
Sunset brief
We meet on the jetty at dusk, check torches and agree hand signals.
Twilight entry
We enter while there is still some light, so your eyes adjust slowly.
Lights out
Halfway through we cover torches and wave. The water answers in green.
Hot tea ashore
Back on the jetty, warm towels, tea and a slate of what we saw.
I came for one try dive and stayed for the whole course. Nobody ever made me feel slow.
The night dive with the lights off is the closest thing to space I will ever get.
Tiny groups, calm briefings, and tea waiting on the boat. Exactly what a nervous diver needs.
2400 m Questions from the dark
Before you get wet.
Do I need to be a strong swimmer?
You need to be comfortable in water and able to swim a short distance. Many of our best students arrived nervous. We go slowly.
Can I dive if I wear glasses?
Yes. Contact lenses work under a mask, and we keep a few prescription masks to borrow. Ask when you book.
What is included in a course?
Instruction, equipment, boat trips for the course dives and your learning materials. We list anything extra before you pay.
Do you have somewhere to stay?
Our resort rooms sit a few steps from the jetty. Book a course and a room together and we plan your days around the tides.
Are there medical requirements?
Every diver fills in a short medical form. Some answers need a doctor's sign off before diving, so send it early.
