Open Water Diver
3 Days - 6,400,000 IDR
The Open Water Course will give you a full international certification that allows you to dive around the world. You will work closely with an Instructor who will show you how to breathe with confidence under water. You will build up your skill set slowly and progressively through a mix of theory sessions, time in the confined water setting of our swimming pool and under close supervision on the beautiful reefs around the Gili islands. During the course you will make 4 dives on different dive sites around the islands and experience what it is like to move freely in a 3D environment.
Upon successful completion of the course, you will be certified to dive to 18m with a buddy (another certified diver). Although you will be certified to dive without an instructor, it is always advised to dive with a guide who can show you the best parts of a dive site and explain the local conditions such as currents, tides and marine life.

Scuba Diver
2 Days - 4,600,000 IDR
Not enough time for a full Open Water Course? The Scuba Diver Course offers a limited certification for those who do not have enough time on the Gili Islands to complete the full Open Water Course but who would like more knowledge and time under water than an introductory session offers. You will complete 3 out of the 5 theory and confined water sessions required for the full course and make 2 open water dives to an introductory depth of 12 meters.
After the course you will be certified to dive with an instructor to a limited depth without having to show basic competence prior to a dive with a new dive centre.

1/2 Day - 1,050,000 IDR (1 dive)
Full Day - 1,750,000 IDR (2 dives)
This is an introductory dive for those short on time. The session starts with an informative safety briefing before you dive into our swimming pool to practice a few key skills. Once you have built confidence and demonstrated basic ability one of our experienced instructors will guide you on a memorable experience around one of our picturesque dive sites where it’s likely that you will see at least one sea turtle. During this experience you will go to a maximum depth of 12 metres.
After this experience you will be able to make subsequent dives with one of our instructors to give you the opportunity to see multiple dive sites and the chance to see more of our fine-looking corals and marine life.
