Top Scuba Dive Shops in Tioman Island

Divers Cove Sdn Bhd began operations in 2003 with 3 other crew members. Now the in-house dive operator for Paya Beach Resort, we still personally oversee all diving activities, together with a team of 5 PADI professionals with supporting crew.

Scuba-Naut was established in 2000 and we are located at Salang village in Tioman Island.

Salang is a popular beach destination at north of Pulau Tioman, located along the west coast in a secluded bay. A youthful spot that attracts large crowds of global backpackers, the village is a great place for meeting people across the world over beer or two, with a good range of budget hotels along the beach and countryside. Salang is also a diver’s den, being the closest village to many reef sites and wrecks around Tioman, including Coral Island (Pulau Tulai), Chebeh, Batu Malang and Fan Canyon. A high concentration of pubs and restaurants cater to the village’s active nightlife scenery, the resorts also participating by holding bonfire parties by the beach.

Our PADI trained instructors and divemasters, new equipment, and dive boat mean Scuba-Naut is just the place if you want to spend your days frolicking under the pristine warm waters of the tropics while drifting through Fan Canyon, navigating through wrecks off Soyak Island, or attempting to count the endless species of colorful marine life you’ll encounter on Tiger Reef. The unlimited number of dive sights combined with natural beauty of the idyllic South China Sea guarantees your time underwater will start out amazing and just keep getting better!

One of the longest established dive centres on Tioman Island, Sealantis is a PADI 5 Star Instructor Development Centre.

Started in 2008 by long time friends and dive buddies Marine Monkees has grown from a small city based dive club which organized dive trips throughout Asia to now an island based PADI 5-star dive center on Tioman Island (2011) which conducts dive courses and recreational dives with one of the most beautiful you will ever find in Malaysia!

Marine Monkees’s idea is simple – NOBODY DIVES ALONE… But with the Monkees, we take it beyond that. Honestly, it’s not just the diving, it’s the whole trip. Sightings of whale sharks, barracudas, turtles, mantas and watching cuttlefish mate are just bonuses. Did we say Whale Sharks? ehhmmmm… Yeappp, Whale Shark was sighted at our very own bay late 2016! Anyways, It’s the experiences of being able to share that with a bunch of friends that makes up the fun!  In scuba diving, every diver is taught to dive with a buddy, but with the Marine Monkees, we dive with friends! So, yes, NOBODY DIVES ALONE
