scuba lanka is a very good dive-center! ruven, maduka and all the staff where amazing👌🏼 helpfull, trusting and competent! we hope coming back to dive with you guys😉 thanks a lot and all the best for the future🇱🇰
My best experience of diving, we were 2 experienced people and 2 beginners, the monitor is organized in such a way that it happens as well as possible, and it was perfect.
1st day iniiation with the girls, we were able to follow them by doing snorleking. The 2 day dive with them. And 3 days dive with others. perfect . Cyril kayak monitor
Owner is Not a good person! He will charge you more for everything after you went. Also with whale spotting Tour ITS awfull to see how They treat the annimals.
Was perfect , a divermaster was really awesone and helpfull
Cool guys, perfect trip to pigeon island for quite good price - also with borrowing of equipment needed for snorkeling :)
Best price/quality in Uppuveli. Very professional. If necessary, a guide can join your snorkelling tour! Recommended!
The French garden place, at which scuba lanka functions from, is quite nice. Looks good and has reasonable prices. There is a volleyball net on the beach and they provide multiple options to use beach beds ( both covered and normal ).
The divemaster, Gabriel, we had was new to the place but was able to show us plenty of cool spots. The diving was brilliant, especially around pigeon island. Though new to The place he knew plenty of cool spots, swimthroughs, showed us amazing corals, big morays, turtles and sharks. Diving itself was quite nice. Conditions were not optimal but he explained everything that was necessary. This made the fundives very nice and a good experience on our first sri lankan dives. The review is therefore not about the divemaster!
But this only accounted for in the water. The staff of scuba lanka was a little annoying amd worrying. They removed snorkels from our scuba gear, after which gabriel intervened and replaced them. As well their "boss" made us wait for over 50 minutes because they wanted to have the divers and snorkelers go together. The boatman did not pick us up after the dive though it was very clearly mentioned and repeated by himself. We had to swim back to shore where we found him relaxing. Neither had he brought a stair to climb on the boat which was quite necessary due to high surf and asked for by our divemaster before departure.
Due to the above I can not advice anyone to dive with scuba lanka.
I think this place had better times
