— OVERVIEW

One of India's best dive spots

Malvan is a picturesque coastal town in Maharashtra’s Sindhudurg district, about a 2-hour drive from North Goa. Its clear waters give some of the best underwater visibility on the west coast, making it a favourite for spotting vibrant coral reefs and colourful reef fish, even for first-time divers and non-swimmers.

This full-day trip includes AC pickup and drop from North Goa, a breakfast stop en route, and a proper briefing on underwater signals and safety before you head out by boat to the dive spot. You’ll spend 15–20 minutes at a depth of roughly 25–30 feet with an experienced instructor, who also captures photos and video of your dive. A hearty Thali lunch (veg and non-veg) rounds off the day before the drive back to your hotel.
