About LACADIVES
Lacadives has come a long way since it’s inception on Kadmat in 1995. Our Lakshadweep chapter covers a 16-year history of some of the most remote and exclusive diving in the country, including a 10-year partnership with CGH-Earth on the beautiful island of Bangaram.
In 2008 we opened a dive center on Havelock in the Andaman Islands, as well as 01 pool-training facilities in Mumbai. We also began partnering with some of the best liveaboard operators in Asia.
Our operations currently include our center at Chidiya Tapu, in the Andaman Islands, 2 mainland operations in Mumbai and Bangalore and a liveaboard network for the best dive destinations in Asia. The Lacadives team has safely trained over 5000 beginners and hosted numerous divers from all parts of the world.

★★★★★ We (OWD) had a great time with Lacadives. Very professional. We spent 3 days with them. Thumbs up for Ví and Kunal, who are super friendly, patient and most importantly you can see that they enjoy what they do. All the people in the team were nice and professional. High quality equipment, good organization, reasonable prices. I have nothing to complain about. Close-by OWD friendly sites are great and full of marine life but have to come back with my Advance course to check some further deep sites as well. One day 🤞👌

★★★★★ During our week at Seashell on Havelock, diving with the team at Lacadives was excellent. The team really did all they could to make us feel safe, asking which were our favourite sites to revisit and organising a very special trip to Dixon’s Pinnacles. It was my wife’s first dive in 25 years and she was understandably nervous but after a refresher and some gentle coaxing and patience she was diving with confidence. It was a dream of mine to have her as my buddy. Wish granted. A special shout out for Vibodh who accompanied me on all my dives after the first day. His briefings were thorough, his eyes for rock like octopus and other well hidden species are sharp. He’s also very good at bubble rings. He’s a very professional act. Boat crew, office staff and everybody. Thank you!

★★★★★ Lacadives is the most professional divers. On Havelock we did the practice and underwater dive session with them - it went smoothly and as we veered first timers they made us super comfortable so that our first dive is most memorable. Thanks to Irfan & Gokul for giving us this experience!

★★★★★ Scuba diving can be pretty nerve-racking when you’re just starting out, so having a patient instructor really matters. We had a great experience at Lacadives while doing our Open Water Certification with Shriditha. She was calm, encouraging, and never made us feel rushed or stressed. The dives were well organised, and after each one we had a debrief that actually helped us understand what went right and what we could improve on for the next dive. That made a big difference to our confidence in the water. Overall, it was a very positive experience and we’d definitely recommend Lacadives to anyone learning to scuba dive.

★★★★★ We did our very first scuba dive with lacadives scuba centre and the experience was truly unreal! The underwater views were absolutely breathtaking, and I could see the fishes so clearly it felt like a whole different world. The best part is, I don’t even know how to swim, but the instructors managed everything so smoothly and made me feel completely safe and comfortable throughout. They were extremely professional, patient, and supportive, and they made sure we had the best possible experience. They even took us to different spots underwater to show us more marine life up close, which was incredible. Everything was handled very professionally, from the training session to the dive itself. We genuinely enjoyed every moment. Thank you for making our first scuba dive so memorable! Highly recommended! 🌊🐠🤿
