    Destination

    Your dive center is located on the popular Govind Nagar beach on Havelock Island. But you'll take a boat ride in the Andaman Sea to complete five open water dives. Most dive spots near the island offer perfect diving conditions to learn and practice diving, with pleasant water temperature and little to no ocean current. The gentle water of these dive spots are home to a number of small critters and fishes, from shrimps and clownfish to sea horses and butterflyfish. The morning sun provides enough visibility in the clear and clean water of the dive sites, allowing beautiful views of the white sandy sea floor and coral reefs.
