Opening Hours
One of the fastest-growing pastimes on earth, diving’s popularity should come as no surprise. Most of the world’s best dive spots happily coincide with what are some of nicest places to be above water as well, making for the perfect combination, whether you want to snorkel, dive or just relax.
We are such big fans of diving that we have a whole division, Original Diving, dedicated to luxury diving holidays with a team of diving specialists to help with all your holiday needs. They started life as Dive in Style, a partnership with Tim Simond, author of the best-selling coffee table book of the same name. After two successful years, in February 2012, we became Original Diving. Diving in style, and luxury diving destinations remain a large part of what we do but now we offer a broader mix of hotels and destinations, some of which cannot be considered stylish (Papua New Guinea anyone?) but which nonetheless offer something special - and extremely original - for divers.
We have local contacts and know-how that enables us to get you exclusive benefits and special offers as well as the peace of mind that all your travel and luxury diving arrangements are handled by one person. We continue to innovate and to offer more exciting dive destinations. Come on in, the water's lovely.
