Dusit Thani Maldives has partnered with water sports specialists Ocean Group to open the Ocean Dive and Sports Centre, a new facility offering a wide range of water sports, high quality diving equipment and excursions.
From PADI-certified scuba diving courses such as the Night Diver course and Digital Underwater Photography course to children-friendly dive activities such as Fun Bubble Maker, the centre makes the most of the rich tropical waters which surround the resort by enabling guests to experience first hand a diverse mix of marine life in its natural habitat.
The centre also offers jet skiing, Sea-Doo Seascooter snorkelling, water skiing, wakeboarding, catamaran sailing, windsurfing, ocean kayaking, stand up paddle boarding, hoverboard-style hydraflights, and more on-water activities for guests to enjoy. Excursions include snorkelling trips, manta ray spotting, traditional sunset fishing, and the sunset Dolphin Cruise.
“From the ocean’s gentle giants whale sharks to ‘Finding Nemo’ clownfish, the waters off Dusit Thani Maldives provide a veritable safari in the sea,” Reinhold Johann, the resort’s General Manager was quoted in an announcement as saying.
“The variety and quality of on-water pursuits available, meanwhile, ensures we have activities to suit families, honeymooners and thrill seekers alike.”
Hussain Zahid, founder of the Ocean Group, said, “Our mission as a company is to share premier dive and water sports experiences with fellow adventure seekers and marine lovers, and we are delighted to partner with Dusit Thani Maldives to open this new facility. Whether you go over and beyond, skim the surface or venture deep down and under, there are no limits to your adventures when the ocean is your playground.”
