Overview

Your Discover Scuba Diving experience at Villingili begins with a relaxed 30-minute briefing led by a certified PADI instructor, where you’ll learn how to use your scuba gear, breathing techniques, and essential safety tips. Next, you’ll head into a shallow lagoon to practice basic diving skills in waist-deep water until you feel confident and comfortable. Then, board a dive boat and cruise to a vibrant coral reef just off Villingili Island. During your 30–45 minute guided open water dive, you’ll descend to a maximum depth of 12 meters and glide past colorful coral formations, schools of tropical fish, and maybe even spot sea turtles or moray eels. This Maldives beginner scuba diving tour offers the perfect balance of safety, excitement, and unforgettable marine life encounters in one of the world’s most stunning underwater settings.
