Scuba Diving In India

Temple Adventures has been exploring deep-sea diving in Pondicherry, which has led to a treasure trove of dive sites. Deep-sea diving opens a realm of a more advanced and technical method of scuba diving; which makes Temple Adventures one of the few Indian scuba diving centres that offer Technical Diving courses.

I am from Hyderabad. For a non swimmer, and a person with seasickness and fear of water, I really had an amazing experience. First few minutes I was dead scared and freaked out. But because of my instructor who handled the situation well, instilled the confidence and gently guided me. If not for him, I would have missed out on such a wonderful, breathtaking experience. Thank you temple adventures team.

Temple adventures has a nice and safe environment to get you trained and allay all your fears of diving. They have a small pond to practise basic skills, then we move to a fresh water quarry which is a great starting point if you are worried about moving to the ocean directly. They have amazing dive sites of varying depths and fauna for the last day. The temple adventures centre is warm welcoming and extremely clean and safe. The instructors make it a point to show all the facilities, including air filling station and train you well in all safety parameters. The team was kind enough to accommodate me in the instructors guesthouse, which was an excellent place to stay. The pet dogs and cats at temple adventure are always there to welcome you and play with you. Instructors Excellent instructors. The y will not rush you or pressurise you about anything and will give you your time to learn. John and Das cleared all my doubts. They made sure I learnt to pack my kit and take care of it, as part of the learning process. Highest priority is given to safety and developing good diving practices is at the core of their teaching. Temple Adventures has trainers for all levels of scuba diving training and its a blessing to learn from these highly trained divers from your very first course.
