Diving Courses
From zero to professional
The first scuba certification, for people who have never dived. Theory, pool sessions and four open-water dives; you finish with an internationally recognised card that never expires.
The follow-on from Open Water: certified to 30 metres, with five dives covering specialities such as deep, navigation, night and peak performance buoyancy.
Learn to prevent and manage underwater emergencies — spotting problems early, assisting and rescuing divers, and first aid. The step before professional level.
Dive Equipment
Equipment sales and rental
A complete set of dive gear for liveaboards and day diving, serviced and checked before every trip. Tell us your sizes when you book.
Dive computers for hire — close to essential on a liveaboard doing several dives a day, tracking your no-decompression limit and surface intervals accurately.
Dive torches for hire — needed for the night dives on every liveaboard, and the quickest way to bring back the real colour of soft coral at depth.
WHY SCUBANINE
We don't just sell boat seats. A SCUBANINE guide travels with you, from the airport pickup to the ride back.
Every site gets a full briefing, buddy teams are matched by experience, and dive accident insurance is included on every trip.
Our guides are underwater photographers — we know which pinnacle to dive at which hour, when the light is best, and where the rare critters sit.
We cap the number of divers per guide so everyone gets real time on the reef instead of queueing for a shot.
Issara Liveaboard and Tapana Catamaran, both air-conditioned with en-suite cabins — pick the cabin class that fits your budget.
Full board throughout, plus snacks between dives, drinking water, tea and coffee. Tell us about allergies in advance.
PROMOTION
