What our clients say
" I am a non-swimmer (aware of very basic drills ) and this was the first time I was going for Scuba.Not a trial dive but the first level of certification. Quite honestly , Nikhil made it so so simple for us. In addition to the planned 2 day course , he spent an additional day for me to get comfortable in the waters and get the best of whatever swimming skills I was aware of . He is pretty warm , patient, supportive , ofcourse strict at times ( considering we had opted for the course and there are some critical drills that you can’t ignore ) and that helped in making me better with every dive . He ensured 1:1 focus for us which did the trick . In addition to the 2 open water dives as a part of the certification, we did an additional dive because we found the complete experience extremely addictive and we had awesome company in the form of other instructor as well - Samsung . Extremely grateful to Nikhil and his team - Samsung and Shukla for making this such a memorable experience for us . Taking memories and a skill for life !.
"I had got my scuba diving certificate in the 2014 at the Blue Corals Dive center of Havelock. As they let me have one if the best experiences of my life because of their professional way to work and their nice way to make happy customers, and on this year I crossed all the world (from Italy to Andamans) to come back to dive through them and I was right. I confirm that this is the best scuba diving center of Andamans. I definitely suggest it. Congratulations! Sabrina Corcio.
"This was my first dive and Nikhil and his team made this a great experience. Especially his patience and subject matter expertise while guiding us through the Scuba Diver certification was commendable . We completed 3 dives and will be continuing further to reach higher levels . Thank you Nikhil for this . Highly recommend Blue corals dive centre for your dive experience at Havelock island .
