It’s a great little dive Centre the owner has just started and he’s very enthusiastic. Use all the equipment that is needed and thinks along and takes your wishes into account.

We had an amazing 3-dive trip with Banda Ocean Divers! The atmosphere at the dive shop was super friendly and relaxed, and we instantly felt welcomed. It’s run by Nielo — the first Bandanese diving instructor — who is not only a fantastic guide but also a genuinely great guy. We loved being out on the water with locals who grew up on these islands and are working hard to protect and preserve their marine environment for future generations. Our Divemaster, Pierce, was awesome too — very attentive, made us feel completely safe the whole day, and pointed out loads of cool marine life. We also requested vegan meals and they were delicious! Even though it’s a new dive shop, you can really see the passion. We’re excited to come back, hopefully earlier in the season next time to spot even more hammerheads. Highly recommended!
