The Langkawi Divesites
A short boat ride takes you from our divecenter on Cenang beach to the beautiful 99 small islands of Langkawi. (not Payar)
Our divesites: The Stables, Tanjung Intan, Razorreef, Cepu, Beras Laut, White Coral Corner. Read more about these sites...
These divesites are only 10-20min away from Cenang and Langkawi Scuba is the divecenter that found these sites in 2014. We therefor know these sites like the back of our hand. Read more about how we discovered these sites..
They are great places to see beautiful colorful soft-corals, anemones with clownfish, lionfish, razorfish and frogfish. A school of barracudas is hanging out, we have spotted colorful nudibranches, whipcoralshrimps, pipefish, and very often we see seahorses. See photos
The Visibility
Let’s face it, Langkawi is not known for crystal clear water. Visibility is usually only 2-4m, therefor, we do mainly macrodiving. (looking at small creatures in the reef) And because the soft-corals and fish are very colorful there is plenty to see. And there are days that we are lucky and do get 5m+ visibility.
Because we would like to be able to show you all the amazing creatures, we dive with only 2 divers per PADI instructor, so in stead of worrying about losing your buddy, just worry about enjoying yourself.

Safety
With limited visibility in Langkawi we don't want you to be worried about losing your buddy or instructor. And because we would like to be able to show you all the amazing creatures, we dive with only 2 divers per PADI instructor. Of course we give comprehensive safetybriefings and we use buddy-lines.
Emergency oxygen and a first aid kit are always on our boat. And we will bring spare equipment, just in case.
Covid-19:
We sanitize masks and regulators properly after each use.
If applicable, please inform yourself of the risk of diving after Covid19 and have your physician clear you for scuba diving before your dive-trip. Download medical statement here...
Environment
You take care of that you love, and we love the Langkawi beaches and the reefs around them. So, we reduce and re-use and recycle, do beachclean-ups and splash for trash dives, and we will watch your hands and fins while diving so that the coral doesn't get damaged. Read more about our efforts here...
Our Season

Closed: June to September the west-monsoon sometimes makes the waves too big for us to go diving, it also rains often and the water will be brown and it is not safe or fun to go diving. At that time we will be closed.
