COMO Cocoa Island is part of a marine-rich atoll full of pristine dive sites, such as the dramatic Kandooma Caves and the ever-popular shark cleaning station at Cocoa Thila. Our resident marine biologist can also accompany you on dives to explain about the flora and fauna present at our dive sites.
For beginners looking to learn, we have professional guides on-hand and a range of PADI-approved diving courses for those wishing to earn their SCUBA license while at the resort.
Discover Scuba Diver While not a scuba certification course, Discover Scuba Diving is a quick and easy introduction to what it takes to explore the underwater world. You learn the basic safety guidelines and skills needed to dive under the direct supervision of a PADI Professional. Price: US$250 for the first session, $175 for each additional dive
Scuba Diver If you’re short on time but want to become a diver, the PADI Scuba Diver is an intermediate step for earning an Open Water Diver certification. You’ll learn to dive to a depth of 12 metres. Price: US$595
Open Water Diver The PADI Open Water Diver course includes three parts: Knowledge Development, Confined Water Dives, and Open Water Dives. As a PADI Open Water Diver, you’ll be trained to a maximum depth of 18 metres and are qualified to dive in conditions as similar to those in which you trained. Price: US$995
For your own safety, if you have previously had COVID-19, you must provide a certificate from a Diving Medical Practitioner stating your physical condition as it relates to diving.
