Scuba Diving Courses

  A quaint beach office is a face of the warm welcome to an amazing experience of the world below sea level! Ali Khan is funny, reassuring and a master scuba... read more diver, so you know you are in good hands with him! The pool for the confined water training section is small but deep and big enough to achieve all training needs before the open water experience.

  I had contemplated diving but though curious, its just something that looked complicated and out of my league. Scubaduka changed that for me and I ended up completing the Padi... read more Open Water course at the centre in Diani. From the start Ali, founder of Scubaduka, was extremely patient and made me believe I was born to do this. He is an excellent instructor and goes over and above in making you comfortable with this exhilerating adventure. The Scubaduka team are professional as well as human. Good equipment. They genuinely love and know the waters and you feel like part of the family immediately. I loved the fact that this is a local company, a Kenyan Brand.

As for the diving experience I am officially addicted. That weightless feeling when you dive makes all problems disappear. The marine life on Diani is amazing and beyond what these photos can illustarte. Will definitely keep diving, learning more and with Scubaduka.

  I did a lot of research into dive companies around Diani and it definitely paid off. Scuba Duka are a small business so we got such a personal service. It's... read more max 4 divers per guide but it was only the 2 of us on day one and 3 the next day. I was a bit nervous as my last dive was over a year ago but Ali settled this with a good briefing and a nice easy reef to start. I was soon back to confidence. The dive sites themselves were amazing. The coral is he healthiest I've ever seen -im comparing to Thailand, Vietnam, mexico, Bali and Australia. We also did my first wreck dive which had soooo many shoals of fish. Plenty of turtles. No whalesharks despite the right season but that just gives us another reason to be back 🙂 Big shout to our guide Michael who was super helpful. We paid 190 USD for 4 dives including all gear, which is competitive for the area. The dive shop is located a bit further down from the main Diani strip but worth the effort. Plus the Galu beach and cafe next door are so nice for chilling after. We didn't want to leave !

  Diving with Ali Kahn and his team is a great experience.
A lot of humour , good equipment, nice and clean place and boat that brings you to over 20... read more different dive places out side the reef.
Also good price and water and fruits on bird and a glass of fresh juice after your trip back at the beach.
For sure if you have plans for diving and are in the area call Ali or visit him at his place

Diani beach is a great place for diving. Turtles, clown fish, dolphins and fully intact corals. The lucky ones may even get to see whale sharks.

  If/when you are in Kenya(especially Diani Beach)don't miss the chance to discover the underwater life of this part of the Indian Ocean.So we were looking through many diving schools but... read more decided to choose this one.Why?Firstly ,I love the way I was informed and answered via email,secondly I like the way we were met at the center and finally I like the atmosphere there.We made 10 diving and the night one.Unforgettable experience,very qualified instructors(special thanks to our instructors Michael and Baccadi(sorry for the spelling),very informative briefings,very nice guidence and definitely safety of the divers is the priority of the school.And when we dived we had two divers for one instructor.Special thanks to Ali,the owner of the center.When you are in Diani Beach and want to have a look at the marine life ask Ali and his friendly team,you will never regret but you will feel at home here.

  Scuba Duka is a small outfit run by Ali - I had intially contacted Ali by email and then by Whatsapp.

Ali was on time to pick me... read more up from Kole Kole. Equipment was generally good. Only 2 divers (low season) and dive sites are quite close (10-30 mins). Good boat. Timings 7.30pm-12.30pm. Was back at the hotel for lunch which was great as didn't have to take too much time out of my holiday.

Went to the wreck and Galu - both sites have abundant fish life. The wreck is very cool and Galu has numerous turtles. Nice to see large fish populations.

Would recommend this dive shop. One suggestion, please provide refreshments before and after dives!
