About this experience

Slip beneath the surface of the Indian Ocean on this private two-hour scuba diving session off Mount Lavinia, just south of Colombo. All diving equipment is provided, so you arrive, kit up, and drop into the clear blue water with your instructor beside you. A litre of bottled mineral water per person is included to keep you refreshed once you're back on the surface. Minimum age for participants is 12 years.

Note that hotel pick-up and drop-off, food, drinks, gratuities, and any personal expenses are not included, so arrange your own transport to the dive point. This is a private activity — your group has the session to yourselves, making it well suited to families or those who prefer a one-to-one pace in the water. Lakpura handles the booking and coordination from start to finish.
