A few things before we dive
Do I need a diving license?
Fun Dive is for certified divers. If you are new to scuba, Discovery Scuba Diving is designed for first-time and non-certified participants, with step-by-step guidance.
What is included in a dive day?
Full scuba equipment, two dives, boat trip, lunch and drinks, tourist tickets, dive torch, a local guide, and underwater photos and videos shared by a private link with no expiry date.
Where will we dive?
We choose sites according to weather, currents, sea conditions, certification and experience. Tell us whether you prefer reefs, marine life or wrecks and we will use that when planning the day. Specific sites cannot be guaranteed.
How big are the dive groups?
A shared trip group has at most 6 divers, with one guide for every two divers. When needed, an extra local sweeper supports the group to keep the dive organized and comfortable.
Can you pick me up?
Pickup is free from accommodations around Karimunjawa town. Pickup outside the town area may have an additional transport fee. Add your accommodation to the booking request and we will confirm the details.
When will I receive my photos and videos?
