About this experience
Strap on your tank and slip beneath the surface off Mount Lavinia, one of Sri Lanka's most accessible dive spots just south of Colombo. This private, three-hour session puts you in the clear blue coastal waters with all diving equipment provided — mask, fins, BCD, regulator, and cylinder — so you can focus entirely on what's below. Minimum age is 12, and the tour is conducted in English throughout.
Whether you're already certified and want a guided dive, keen to advance with a PADI Specialty course, or a first-timer ready to try a PADI Discover Scuba Diving programme, your instructor stays with your group for the full duration. A litre of bottled mineral water per person is included to keep you refreshed after your dive. Note that hotel transfers, meals, and gratuities are not part of the package, so arrange your own transport to the meeting point and factor in lunch for afterwards.

A Beautiful Time Capsule Waiting for Rescue
Stayed 4 nights at Hotel Mount Lavinia. The best way to describe it is: imagine finding a stunning colonial-era paradise, then realizing nobody has been maintaining it since the invention of Wi-Fi.

Dirt where you look!
The beach is a nasty place with household waste that is not recommended! I suspect the garbage bags are being brought into the water by boats. Just disgusting🤮Travel time 02/26
