Organised by Bangalore-based adventure travel company Unventured, the Andaman Scuba Dive Tour is all kinds of awesome. On this nine-day trip to the sunny islands, you’ll not only get the opportunity to get a diving license but you’ll be practically living underwater, exploring the vast ocean. We’re day dreaming abut the reef and magical sea life already! Oh, and did we mention that you’ll be staying at amazing beach resorts? Yup, that too.

Essentially for water babies, this dive tour is super fun, but only if you’re comfortable in the sea. So a very basic knowledge and ability to swim is needed. Don’t want you floundering, do we! If you’re already an expert at swimming, then it’s a fantastic opportunity to explore life under water. In fact, if you don’t know how to swim, I’d say learn now and sign-up for this. It’ll be worth it! Plus, if you want to get a PADI certification, this is for you — both beginner and advanced open water, by the end of it.

This is your ideal course in diving, combining theory and practical session to equip you with skills to dive anywhere in the world — from night dives to ship wrecks. The ocean and all it encompasses is both majestic and mystical. Colourful fish, a gorgeous reef and just unending blue-green waters, the Andaman Islands is one of the finest places to go diving. This tour even ticks off the box of a night dive, which from experience is a once in a lifetime experience. And it must be done! When you’re done touring the seas, hit the land for yummy meals {yes, seafood} and be a beach bum. Of course, there's plenty at cities like Port Blair and Havelock to check out on land too, so it's not entirely water-based.
For on-shore excitement, there will also be a trek through the forests. And these aren’t just any forests, these are tropical beauties that weave and wind through thick mangroves and tropical trees. The best part? You eventually end up at Elephant Beach! Bring on the summer of 2017!
