Flores Diving Centre

Flores Diving Centre is based in Labuan Bajo on the island of Flores, just a 1-hour flight from Bali and the gateway to the famous Komodo National Park — a UNESCO Heritage site since 1991 and home to the Komodo dragons. A PADI Resort operating here since 2013, the team pairs personalized service and quality equipment with a comfortable boat carrying a maximum of 8–9 divers. They are also a WWF-certified operator of excellence, with two PADI Instructors who share a genuine interest in marine biology and conservation.

Courses, dive sites and who it suits

The line-up runs from the PADI Open Water Diver and Advanced Open Water Diver courses to single and multi-day trips — including a 1 x Day-Trip (3 dives), a 2 x Day-Trip (6 dives), a 3 x Day-Trip (9 dives), and a 2 Dives + Dragon Trek on Rinca Island. Enriched air (Nitrox) is available.

Divers explore renowned sites such as Manta Point, Crystal Rock, Castle Rock, Batu Bolong and Tatawa Besar, where sharks, turtles, rays and ocean fish appear. With an onsite classroom, air conditioning, free Wi-Fi and five spoken languages, it suits both new and experienced divers.
