Turtle Nest Scuba

Tucked right on the beach in Agatti, Turtle Nest Scuba puts pristine reefs just steps from the shore. The crystal-clear water and vibrant marine life make it a relaxed base for calm, uncrowded diving, whether you're taking your first breaths underwater or already logging deeper dives. As a PADI Dive Center with two PADI Instructors, it was founded by a diving professional with over 20 years of experience and a deep local knowledge of Agatti's hidden, untouched reefs.

Courses and diving

The center runs a full PADI course lineup, from PADI Advanced Open Water Diver and Deep Diver to Rescue Diver, Drift Diver, Boat Diver and Peak Performance Buoyancy, with prices starting from USD 71. Divers can encounter sharks, whales, turtles and ocean fish across Lakshadweep's underwater world.

On-site you'll find a training pool, classroom, house reef and dive boat, plus accommodation, retail shop and free Wi-Fi. The team speaks English, Tamil, Malayalam and Hindi, and every dive is guided with a focus on safety, comfort and genuine discovery.
