Best places: Diving centers in Colombo, Sri Lanka

👍👍 I had the best diving experience with Ravi & the crew when I got my PADI Open water certification last week. They were friendly and flexible with my dive times and the course material completion which I appreciated. Their instruction was great and I felt very safe diving. Ravi was extremely knowledg...

👍👍 I am a total novice to diving, so it was with great trepidation that I decided to explore its wonders by attempting the Discovery Scuba Dive My instructor, Gabriel, was quickly able to allay my fears and taught me the basics in the pool, with very clear, easy-to-follow instructions;  how to breathe...

👍👍 My sister and I tried diving here for the first time. It was such an amazing experience! The staff was extremely kind and we felt comfortable the whole time. Shout out to our instructor Lala! He was very patient with us and taught us well. After a bit of theoretical training we practised in shallow...

👍 Nice divesites and fantastic instructor. Thank you for lovely days ❤️

👍👍 I had a blast diving with them. We went on a two dive wrack dive trip to see an old cargo ship a historic wooden vessel. Also, there is another dive site on a reef. By the way, there are really huge turtles floating in the water right in front of the dive shop - really cute.

👍👍 Outstanding operation! I was in Colombo for the first time for work (coming from the northeast US) and I was hoping to get a dive in on short notice. I reached out to Island Scuba via email and Jez got right back to me and was able to book me on a. weekend trip just a couple days ahead of time. We d...

👍👍 My husband and I went there. They were so nice. So accommodating and kind. We did stand up paddling and wake boarding. Pubudu and the team were so nice.

👍👍 Really great experience with Dive Seenigama Dive Lanka! We went on Nov 17 for a first time snorkeling experience, and everything was fun and safe. I'll definitely be back, and I wholeheartedly recommend Dive Company for friendly and safe snorkeling from Hikkaduwa, Sri Lanka.

👍👍 Very well organised diving tours. In here you can learn to dive too!! My brother recently received his "Diving license" for which he had to go through 2 or 3 written papers and several practical sessions.

👍👍 I did 5 dives with the guys here at Hikka Deep Blue in Hikkaduwa. Highly recommend Reshan as an instructor, super patient and knowledgable, pointed out lots of cool things to see. Great dive sites (SS Conch) and the equipment is well maintained. The whole team from boat captain to the guys helping s...

👍👍 This great diving center is located between Hikkaduwa and Galle, very close to our hotel Aditya Resort. It's definitely not a luxury (I don't need it when diving) but for me it's the most loving, personal diving center I've experienced in 30 years (I'm an advanced open water diver). Safety is very i...

👍👍 I recently visited Scuba Ceylon Diving Center for a diving experience, and it was amazing! Safety was their top priority, which made me feel secure throughout. I felt incredibly comfortable with their knowledgeable and friendly staff. I discovered new varieties of fish that left me in awe. Highly re...

Unassuming beachfront resort with dining & a bar, plus a dive centre & Ayurvedic treatments.

😠 DONT DIVE HERE!!!!!! Booked 2 dives with this company for the following day the guy spoke great English and was very enthusiastic. Turned up the next day and he all of a sudden spoke no English claimed not to remember me although I paid a deposit and filled out the medical. Nobody else had booked a...

😠 Didn't stay here, stopped by for lunch. Ordered the seafood platter. Quite expensive and absolutely not worth for LKR 7000. Two tiny softshell crabs that smelled off. One largish freshwater prawn. And two to three measly pieces of calamari and prawns. Not recommended at all.

😠 It's not a diving center... If you ask whether diving is possible, they try to arrange a whale watching tour that costs €70 per person. And also deep sea fishing... I had to say several times that if I did, I would just do it. I was then shown the map with the supposed 31 reefs in the area, which ca...

👍👍 Excellent service. We spent two weeks with Sampath as our driver and it was wonderful. He has taken us to local places that do not appear in typical travel guides and that are very worth visiting. In addition, he recommended restaurants that suited our characteristics of low budget and traditional f...

😠 In the evening we had arranged two dives for the next day with one of the diving guides. When we arrived in the morning, a few unmotivated and rather dismissive employees of the dive shop looked at us and said the dive guide was still sleeping. Wouldn't we be able to come back the next day? We don't...
