Peak diving conditions in Lakshadweep usually extend from October to May. During these months, the Arabian Sea settles into a reliable rhythm of calm seas, light winds, and impressive visibility that often ranges from 20 to 40 meters. This is the season when plankton levels are moderate, waters are warm, and the lagoons around Agatti and Bangaram glow that signature turquoise. From June to September, the monsoon brings stronger winds and occasional swells which can limit boat operations and underwater visibility, so most operators—including us—scale back or pause ocean activities for safety. If your goal is the most relaxed conditions for your first bubbles or to capture vibrant reef photography, plan for the post-monsoon window starting October, with November to March being particularly consistent.
Our dive portfolio covers beginner-friendly lagoons and exhilarating outer reef walls. A few guest favorites:
Expect bath‑warm seas between 27–30°C for most of the season—comfortably dived in a 3 mm shorty or full suit depending on your preference. Visibility is typically 20–30 m in lagoons and can exceed 30–40 m on the outer reef after calm spells. Currents range from slack to moderate; we schedule sites around conditions and diver experience, ensuring relaxed, enjoyable dives for beginners and suitably adventurous profiles for advanced divers.
Lakshadweep's reefs brim with life: grazing green turtles, confetti‑colored damsels, regal angelfish, and elegant eagle rays. Outer pinnacles bring pelagic cameos—trevallies, barracuda, and, with luck, inquisitive reef sharks. Macro hunters can find christmas tree worms, nudibranchs, and cleaner shrimps. Sunrise and late‑afternoon dives offer the richest fish action as reef life transitions between day and night shifts.
If you're new to the sport, the PADI Open Water Diver course is your launchpad. It blends online theory with confined‑water practice and open‑water dives in our calm lagoons. Already certified? Level up with the Advanced Open Water—perfect for deep and navigation skills—or polish rescue awareness with the Rescue Diver program. Each pathway expands your comfort zone and unlocks more sites and conditions safely.
Your wellbeing is our priority. We dive in small groups matched by experience, conduct thorough site briefings, and carry safety equipment on every boat. Our rental gear is serviced routinely, and we choose profiles that maximize bottom time while respecting no‑decompression limits. If you're returning after a long surface interval, we can arrange a refresher to rebuild muscle memory before your first ocean dive.
Agatti's air link from Kochi makes logistics straightforward. Secure your entry permit in advance, check the latest baggage rules for dive gear, and reserve your preferred course or dive package early during peak months. Not sure where to start? Browse our dive packages for stays that bundle accommodation, boat dives, and lagoon activities, or message us on WhatsApp and we'll tailor a plan.
Travel light and smart: reef‑safe sunscreen, a snug mask if you have one, rash guard or 3 mm suit, light towel, and a reusable water bottle. Photographers should bring moisture munchers and backups for O‑rings and batteries—the humidity is real. If you prefer renting, we carry a full size range of well‑maintained dive gear.
Local knowledge, PADI‑certified pros, and a guest‑first attitude. We combine safety with a relaxed island vibe so you focus on the joy of breathing underwater. Whether it's your first certification or your fiftieth dive, our team will help you discover the reefs that keep us inspired every day.
