Deep Sea Diving Package

Single room
Come experience life in the idyllic Andamans, and learn to dive while you are at it. In keeping with our philosophy, courses are done in small groups, with unlimited confined water training and even 1-to-1 instruction, if needed, at no additional charge. We want you to be good divers, and will do whatever it takes to get you there.

The package includes
  • VI nights’ accommodation
  • SSI Open Water certification (PADI & NAUI also possible - see below)
  • I day / II dives after certification
  • All transfers - airport to airport
If you are not sure as to which agency best suits your needs, read this article on The Great Agency Debate [link opens in new browser window]. We can also discuss your options with you when you are here and help you decide, but take comfort in the fact that there really is no wrong decision here: all courses, under a good instructor, will teach you to dive competently and safely.
A discounted add-on option is available for the Advanced Course as well - doing an Advanced course has many benefits: one, you accelerate your learning a lot; second, you are trained to dive up to 30m; third, you retain your skills for longer. Because we feel strongly about the benefits of the Advanced when done in conjunction with the Open Water, we offer this at a heavily discounted price, as an added bonus.
The Advanced Add-on Pack includes:
  • II nights extension
  • SSI Advanced Course

Do note that even if you book the Advanced Add-on, you don't have to commit to the Advanced course until you complete your Open Water. If you decide not to do the advanced course, you only pay for the additional night’s stay, that's all.
Meals: ala carte meals are available at our restaurant, and you also have option to have breakfast, lunch & dinner included for an additional flat daily fee (see notes below the price list). There isn't a significant price difference between choosing one option or the other.

Experience Havelock package
This is the ideal package for those who want to experience a mix of the Andamans lifestyle -the quiet beaches, the swaying palms, the general peace and quiet - but who also want to experience some of the magic that these azure waters hold.
So we have put together a combination of activities that will give you a good mix of all the Andaman specialties that Havelock has to offer: quality time on the beach, a half-day intro to diving and a beach dinner to really make this a trip to remember.
With our emphasis on professional supervision/safety/training mixed with fun, this is a great package for honeymooners, families, people who are new to the ocean, etc. It is also a great way to combine a Havelock trip as part of a larger Andaman holiday.

This package includes:
III Nights accommodation

One 1/2 Intro to Diving program for beginners (includes 1 dive)
1 private beach dinner for your group
A half-day kayaking trip, either to see the mangroves or go snorkelling
1 trip to Radhanagar Beach to see the sunset, with picnic basket
If you want, you can also upgrade to the SSI or PADI Scuba Diver certification course -this certifies you to dive up to 12m under professional supervision. You learn more about the underwater world, about diving theory and practice basic scuba and emergency skills. This way, next time you are on holiday somewhere by the sea, you can go out diving with greater confidence and comfort.
The Resort Diver course includes an additional dive as well, making a total of 2. This cost Rs 5000 extra, for the training, the second dive and certification.

Meals: ala carte meals are available at our restaurant, and you also have option to have Breakfast, lunch & dinner included for an additional flat daily fee (see notes below the price list). There isn't a significant price difference between choosing one option or the other.

New Season" Diver Special (valid June 1 - Sep 30)
Traditionally, August & September have been termed the off-season in the Andamans. However, based on our experience over the past 4-5 years, this period actually offers some really special diving in terms of fish life and activity. Yes, it is true that there are occasional-to-frequent showers, but the seas are usually manageable and our dive sites tend to be accessible. Most importantly, the number of fish that can be seen increases dramatically during this period - we have seen schools of 30 manta rays go soaring by, been funnelled by over 300 barracudas, been surrounded by a swirling shoal of over 500 fusiliers and lot more.

The past few years, the monsoons haven't really hit us till July either. This means that June has become a de-facto extension of the peak season: sunny skies (although some clouds and brief tropical showers), warm water, high chance of mantas and overall, very good diving. As such, we have also extended this package to June/July as well - an additional discount applies during that period as well. The flip side, of course, is that early to mid August tends to be wetter than it used to.

Weather-wise, conditions are variable. You can have a few days of very rough seas, in which case we will be diving close to shore. And then the weather can take a turn for the better, and give us flat calms seas with access to all our remote dive sites. Even in the peak of monsoons, we are still able to go out daily, though - so that is some consolation.

And monsoon rains typically mean short, heavy showers, although occasionally (usually 2-3 times during this period), we get massive rain, the kind that lasts for hours and gives us a swimming pool on the premises :

However, dont let the rain put you off - the islands are absolutely magical in the rain. The rains are warm, the water is warm and the casual tourists are not present, so you have miles and miles of beach all to yourself. And of course, there is diving. What else do you need? :

Of course, we cannot guarantee weather, which is why we have discounted the package quite significantly over our regular-season rates. And we have built-in some non-diving days for enjoying quality time on the beach or going out around the island with your camera before the tourist hordes arrive.

The package for divers during this period includes:
  • VIII nights’ accommodation
  • V days/10 dives
  • I night dive
  • Your choice of Free SSI Specialty OR 50% off Advanced or Rescue Diver course
  • All gear and dive master fees
  • All pickups and transfers in Port Blair and Havelock

PLEASE NOTE - While the restaurant is open at this time, we offer a limited menu at this time (2-3 pages, instead of the usual 7-8 page menu). This makes it hard for us to come with a meals-included price that is equitable for everyone (including us).

As such, for this package, we recommend ala carte. Budget approx Rs 800-1000 or more per person per day for this. That being said, if you want meals-included, you'll get meals-included, so let us know.
