      Amazing scuba experience and affordable rates. Trainers are very helpful and patient, they are constantly with us making sure we are comfortable. They have separate diver who is handling pics & videos who will take DJI underwater action camera recordings and pics as complimentary. For beginners this is must try. Water is not much clear like Andaman but near to Indian land this is the best we can get. Few schools of fish were there, also spotted squid. Most of the scuba places they take in large group and we have to wait in boat for long time facing sea sickness. But here it's just 1-2 batches per boat so wait time is less.
