EXCELLENT Based on 240 reviews Posted on Helenka CVerified Unforgettable Turtle Sighting and Friendly Staff: Our Snorkeling Experience I did a snorkeling trip with my parents at Sun Diving Center Unawatuna, and it was the best experience! The staff were very friendly and helpful from the start, making us feel comfortable and safe. We saw a beautiful turtle while snorkeling, which was super exciting for all of us. The whole trip was fun and peaceful, perfect for family time. I highly recommend Sun Diving Center for anyone looking to enjoy the amazing underwater world around Unawatuna!Posted on Sharon LVerified Good experience all-around I had a good experience working with Sun Diving Centre and going on my dives today. They were very helpful answering my many questions by email as I planned my trip and responded very promptly. My divemaster was Wishva and he was very patient and helped me feel at ease even though it had been a while since my last dive. I did a Refresher dive and then a second boat dive and even though it is early in the season we were still able to see some great sealife. I would recommend this dive shop and if I travel to Sri Lanka again I would gladly dive with them in the future.Posted on ngibson79Verified Great scuba place Discover Scuba for my 12 year-old son, and a Refresher for me. Challenging diving conditions on the day (low visibility, lots of surge but it is low season and still got to see a wreck) but very professional setup. Manush and his team were very friendly and thorough, equipment and facilities were great, really impressed. My son hanse stopped smiling, or asking when we cab dive again. Thoroughly recommended and hope to dive with them againPosted on Rune Van der MaelenVerified Very nice diving experience with nice instructors We had a nice diving experience here. They were honest about the sight we would have as it is off season now. We were with two persons diving and one instructor and one person who stayed with the boat joined us. We first got an explanation on land, then we could exercise everything in shallow water and only after that we went diving. We felt very safe and had a nice long dive. Thank you.Posted on Luca SVerified Amazing Sun diving Malli malli! Diving center very well organized and helpful and super nice staff. Great diving with the young divemaster Senul, super nice and considerate. See you soon great malli!!Posted on Connor KVerified Ill be going back! I had a fantastic experience with the guys last week doing my PADI course. The man in charge, Shan, was very helpful with all of my questions and made the process of booking and sorting the course so easy!While doing the course my instructors were Minosh and Jess. Minosh made all the instructions and skills we have to follow very clear and straightforward to understand, making sure we knew what we were doing as safely as possible.While diving Jess helped me to overcome my nerves on a couple of occasions by calming me down under the water and not leaving until I was ready to continue, which I found very reassuring!Brilliant experience and felt I was in a safe pair of hands the whole way through.Posted on Samitha FVerified Friendly staff and Best Dive Resort I’m Samith Fernando, a PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer with over 30 years of experience and more than 20000 dives. I am the owner of Kalpitiya Diving Center and Scuba Diving Sri Lanka, both PADI 5-Star Dive Centers.Our second diving location on the southern coast is in Unawatuna. We recently visited Sun Diving PADI 5-Star Dive Resort in Unawatuna, and I must say that the welcome we received from Dilshan, the owner of the Unawatuna Diving Center, was incredibly warm. My family had a wonderful experience, and we did two dives with this center. My children really enjoyed their time.Our dive guide, Mr. Tharu, was excellent—an experienced dive master who is very knowledgeable about all the local dive sites. The dive center has a great team of instructors and dive masters, all of whom are highly experienced.The equipment was in top condition, and there is a nearby restaurant that serves delicious food, which made our experience even more enjoyable.A heartfelt thank you to Dilshan for his hospitality. We highly recommend Sun Diving PADI 5-Star Dive Resort in Unawatuna.Dilshan ❤️ Thank you so much for your Hospitality bro 🤙🏻 Happy BubblesPosted on JessVerified Amazing surf lessons We chose sun diving centre to book our beginner surfing lessons with after having an amazing experience diving with them. They took us to dewata beach which was 10mins away (as unawatuna does not have good waves for surfing). Transport there and back is included in the price. Once we started the lesson our surfing instructor was super friendly, funny and had great English, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. We had some training on the sand first with the board and then spent around 1 hour in the ocean with assistance from instructor pushing us and explaining different techniques to help us improve. We had a really great time & can tell these guys have a lot of experience! Don’t hesitate to book with these guys if you want to learn surfing!Posted on Shady ZVerified Amazing Diving trip at Sri Lanka We are Group of 15 certified divers based Qatar with around 5 nationalities went to explore diving in Sri Lanka and our amazing Dive center was Sun diving SriLanka and the produce to us a five stars services and helping and Gide in briefing and in boat and in the surface and under water we did 10 dive with a perfect teem from their dive center, all of them was perfectI have a special thanks for the perfect dive master Asia Kula for take care for all diver
