Gili Island Diving Center

Had a great experience diving with Gili Air Diving centre. They felt very safe, did good thorough briefings, and were such lovely people. Kim is so welcoming at the shop, and takes great care of you, organising a borrowed camera, getting delicious local lunches (also freee!), and making tea and coffee. The dive masters and boat staff were such a fun bunch, joking around but never when it came to safety. The dives themselves were spectacular and our DM found us so many cuttlefish, sharks, octopus, turtles, etc. We will definitely dive with them again while we are on Gili Air.

Great experience!! It’s a beautiful spot to see sharks, turtles, and so many other species of fish and coral. The staff were incredibly friendly, and the instructors were very professional. I highly recommend this place, especially if you want to do your Open Water!

I did my Advanced Open Water course here and it was awesome. My instructor was super knowledgeable and made the dives fun and easy to follow. All the staff were really friendly and just great to be around. Sadly I ran into a sinus infection and some ear problems after my first two days of diving. The team was really helpful, gave me good advice and were flexible about letting me take time to recover. They even said I’d get a refund for anything I couldn’t finish if I didn’t get better in time. Luckily I did recover and managed to complete the rest of the diving, and they were amazing. I got to see wrecks, turtles, sharks, stingrays, octopus, squid, moray eels and so much more. Overall it was an unforgettable experience and I’d recommend this dive center to anyone.
