Sun dive Fun dive x) - Awesome diving experiences in early October. We wanted to go out, and they were honest with us saying that the visibility wasn't great, but they went out anyway and took us on some wonderful dives. As it was early season it was mostly just my partner and I with Wishva (Divemaster). Wishva was very attentive to what we wanted to see, and was able to edit dives to our liking! Boat crew also great and their driver knows the sea like the back of his hand. We felt so welcomed that after we left Unawatuna, we came back solely to go diving with Sun Diving, lovely people x) Amazing experience. AND TEA! :D

Fantastic dive team - The diving team were very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. They talked us through all of the information we needed not having dived for a while. They demonstrated clearly and supported us throughout. They were ensuring our safety at all times and bent over backwards to make it easy and a pleasure for us. A great team!!

Amazing experience - Had an amazing experience with Sundiving! I did my Open Water PADI here and they did an amazing job at teaching me and keeping me safe. Besides the professional treatment I also had a lot of fun here and made new friends! I recommend this place 100% if you want to do a fun dive, discover dive or your PADI!!

Great Dive Centre, Amazing Staff! - Had a great experience at Sun Divers. My fiancée and I are fairly inexperienced open water divers with 15 dives each and felt so well looked after here. We did 2x Fun Dives in the morning and both were great. The gear and facilities are good and the staff are super friendly. My fiancée sometime gets nervous descending on the first dive after a while and Shan was so patient and calm helped her enjoy it all. The second dive was a breeze and the guys are so clued up. Would definitely recommend Sun divers if you’re wanted to get some diving in Unawatuna and the post-dive beer at the lovely attached bar just hits differently!

Top dive center, super competent guides! - I had a wonderful dive despite some rough seas and poor visibility. The guides are extremely competent and make you feel very safe. They gave me a quick refresher with very clear instructions. I was worried about loosing my guide due to lack of visibility but he staid very close which made me feel very safe and in good hands. Saw lots of pretty fishes up close as well as a shipwreck and an underwater statue!

Sun Diving = Fun Diving! - Such a great time diving here! The visibility wasn't the best but we knew that was likely as we have been in Sri Lanka at this time of year before and they had told us honestly what to expect when we emailed ahead of our arrival. Great location right on the beach with easy access to the boats. When we arrived we were made to feel really welcome and everything was explained clearly. Each day the dive sites were chosen carefully with a good briefing and we were asked if it was OK. They went out of their way to try to give us a good selection and different sites as we were there for a while and we really appreciated the 'special' dive sites! Our dives were managed really well above and below water with a good ratio of dive guides to divers ( 1 to 1 on one occasion!). Nothing was too much trouble for them and I would certainly recommend them for a great time diving. All the staff were not only very knowledgeable and professional but really good fun! We had such a great time both diving and at their beach party!

Great experience - I had such a good experience at this dive centre and so glad I choose here. The staff were very friendly and they make sure you have a great experience from when you arrive, at the same time professional and knowledgable. When I was diving I felt safe and any worries I had underwater the dive master was there straight away to support/guide me. I saw many different species of fish and the dive master was good at spotting the hidden ones! They have a nice location joint onto a bar/restaurant that do great food so everything you need in one spot! I would highly recommend this dive centre if diving in Unawatuna 😊

Great dives - Good time diving in Sri Lanka! Helpful guides and good equipment. Lots of options who to dive with but these guys seemed very reasonable and helpful!

Great dive - Good dive in not the best day for water conditions regardless. Very knowledgeable and professional divers to accommodate us on the dive.

Octopus, turtles, sting rays.. words don’t do justice! - Words do not do justice to such a magnificent experience! My partner and I had never dived before and ending up doing Open Water, Advanced Open Water, Rescue Diver and in total 20 dives with the guys at Sun Diving Centre - we plan to do more before heading home too! Feroz was our instructor for the certifications and he was wonderful. He is a lovely guy, very patient and relaxed, and we always felt well looked after with him. We consider him our scuba father! He taught us everything we know so far, and it really has been an incredible beginning to something we know we will continue to do for a long time. Our only criticism is that sometimes it was a little hard to understand specific aspects of a brief, for example, but as long as you ask questions and remain vocal if you have any hesitations, Feroz will break everything down even simpler and make sure that you understand what you need to do. We felt very well looked after by the whole team, who were always attentive and friendly. Not to mention the much appreciated tea time! We really feel that we developed a great relationship with the guys there, and they would even send me a text to say that the visibility is good, time for a dive! The equipment was in good order, with a good selection of masks and fins etc. We experienced one faulty pressure gauge in 40 combined dives and that was all. Fortunately my partner knows how much air she uses so there wasn’t an issue. Shan and his family run the business, and Shan does most of the admin and organising, as well as being a dive master too. He speaks excellent English so there’s little room for miscommunication in terms of prices and timings etc, and he is a lovely, sweet and hospitable gentleman. The captains were great fun, all the guys that help with equipment and diving support are super helpful and friendly, and our deepest appreciation goes to the man of the moment, the one and only Salin! Salin was so helpful with equipment, information, just generally being a wonderful human being but most of all, he took a LOT of pictures of us and the marine life, for which we are eternally grateful. Thank you Salin!!! The wrecks are fascinating to dive, Rangoon and Oresstos, we also really enjoyed Aluth Gala, so much to see. We saw Octopi, rays, eels, groupers, big puffers, all the tropical fish that Sri Lanka has to offer and we were lucky enough to have a turtle join us for 5 minutes one day too! It’s heartbreaking that there isn’t a huge amount of coral and I am sure that there is little marine life compared to recent years, as is the case in so many places now. Some days the visibility is so good you can see right down to the bottom from the boat, but usually the visibility is 10 metres or so. All that being said, there are still so many wonderful things to see! I travel a lot and diving just opens up a whole new way of exploring places, and most importantly, understanding and having awareness of other life that exists in those places - and how our actions impact them! We couldn’t say enough good things about Sun Diving and the whole team. Thank you for opening up and sharing these wonderful experiences with us!
