About this experience

This introductory boat dive takes you out to a reef site off Turtle Beach, one of Havelock's quieter dive spots. You don't need any prior diving certification — a PADI-trained instructor stays with you underwater the entire time, and the dive is kept shallow and unhurried.

Expect to see reef fish, soft corals, and — depending on the season — a good chance of spotting sea turtles the beach is named for.

Good to know

Certification: not required for this introductory dive — Andaman dive centres typically welcome first-timers from around age 10, with beginner dives kept to roughly 4–12 metres depth under an instructor.

Swimming: basic water comfort helps, but you are guided the whole time.

Please note: not recommended for pregnant women or anyone with certain heart, lung, or ear conditions — please consult your instructor beforehand if unsure.
