Malvan Reviews
- Being near the coast, the air can be quite humid and hot in summers, plan your visit accordingly.- In case of planning to stay back, make sure you enquire about the availability of hotel rooms beforehand.
We enjoyed our time very much! Dive guides are very well educated and skilled, equipment is the newest but every size was available multiple times. The prices are very competitive and the location is stellar. In a nutshell, highly recommended! thank u sea water sports.
Review for Scuba Diving, Malvan
Malvan trip was really good.There were a lot of water sports activities to try but I really enjoyed the scuba diving. I was scared in the beginning as I am not a good swimmer actually I never swim in the sea before so. But the experts and trainers guided me and their instructions helped me a lot.When I was inside the water, believe me, it was so beautiful to see the marine life a completely new world of beauty. I will plan to visit again. Thanks to Sea Water Sports make my trip was memorable.
