Kerala, India - October

[Scubee]

We are planning a four week trip to India in october, and I hear the Andamans are not worth going to until november-december due to the monsoon.

Has anyone been diving in Kerala? Good diving? Visibility etc? Dive center recommendation?

Thanks!

Tina

TBH I dont think there is any good diving in India, I didnt see one dive operation in all the time i spent there.

Wow, pretty old thread to dig up mate.

There has been recreational diving offered in India for 15 years now. But indeed, the past 5 years has seen a boom.

And yes, there is a guy offering scuba in Kerala now. Started in 2008 and dives inland quarries/lakes.

Almost all Indian centres are registered with PADI.
India Scuba Diving has some info correct as of earlier this year.
