    Exclamation Andaman and Nicobar Islands

    This is an invitation to all divers to come and explore the final frontier in diving, the Andaman islands(neil island). We are the only dive shop on the island and have spent the last two years exploring the area and diving with our guests(now our friends).

    This is one of those places that has just opened up to diving so if you want adventure, exploration and a chance to visit an island that is still not developed(no buildings, no petrol pumps,etc), this is it.

    Hope we see some of you soon.

    Hi Danyaved J,
    Welcome to Neil Island, Andamans.
    We can only do 2 dives a day. 12 dives will cost you Rs.16,000 and every additional dive 1,300. If you have your own diving equipment we will give you a 15% discount on the price mentioned above.
    Accommodation on the island is very reasonable. You can get a room with an attached toilet or an eco cottage for approximately Rs.600 - 1000.
    Food is also very reasonable.
    If you have any further queries please write to us at Andaman Island Dive Centers,Andaman Island Diving,Andaman Dive Centers or contact on my cell +91 9474238646.
    Regards,

    Hey
    When in January will you be coming.
    Exploration dives are a possibility depending on how experienced the rest of the group diving on that day are.
    All sites on Neil Island have been discovered by us and dived by very few divers.
    We are continuously discovering new sections of our dive sites.
    Also ahve 2 dive sites where we ha e taken under 10 divers.
    Regarding opening something here..will talk when you get here.
    You may contact me on my cell No. 09474238646
    Regards
    Johann

    I'll be on a liveaboard late March 2010 by Worldwide Dive and Sail, leaving out of Port Blair. They've discounted their normal rate recently. Checkout their website.

    We are planning a trip to Andaman and Similan islands and any advice or tip would be a great help.
    First season wise, when is the best time to dive in Andaman?
    Or maybe even being more specific, is it worth it if we can only dive in the beginning of the season, let's say, October?
    We are diving with to big ass cameras, where is be the best dive club for us?
    I need an operator with big boats, is that even possible?
    Also, is there a way to get from Andaman to Similan (Thailand) directly?
    Maybe liveaboard or something like that?
    Feel so stupid to go all the way back to India, fly to Bangkok and sail to the Similans when it is actually so close!
