PADI IDC Dive Center in Manado

We would like to make a difference. We like to be different from other companies and to make a difference to your holiday experience. That is why we honor our slogan: Come as a guest, leave as a friend!
Many guests before you already felt, that this statement is not a hollow phrase, but the true feeling of most guests leaving for their home after their stay.
How we do it? Thalassa Dive Center Manado - Underwater WeddingJust by being ourselves and enjoying what we are doing. The sincere friendliness and happy “sorrow free” attitude of our local staff are the key of our secret.
We also like you to feel free. Free to enjoy your holiday the way you want to. That is why we offer you “flexible scheduling”.
Make the exact number of dives you want to, be on the boat if you want to, make a tour if you want to or just relax at the pool if you feel like doing so. Our boats leave 4 times per day with fixed departure times and we only need to know, when you would like to make your first dive on the next day.

Quality Services Before, While and After Every Dive

If you would like to book an “all in” package, we also offer you our “one-stop” booking service.

Besides that they are being trained to become great spotters and learn to protect and even research the reefs. For sure you will meet them if you dive with us.
