Ombak Divers and Resort has unique access to some of Perhentian's best diving sites. In calm seas, we visited more than 20 dive sites around the islands with the most beautiful clear water, including the super awesome Shark cove where we swam with countless sharks, and Temple Tower rising over 24 meters from the sea bed up out of the water. The staff are all passionate about diving and will be your right-hand guide throughout your stay here. Easily the best dive shop on the island with some of the most advanced divers in the world. Traveller Tip : The dive centre has really affordable bunks great for backpackers, morning coffee and hot water for tea and of course always awesome people. Make sure to say hi to Sam the Dive Master for me.…

I did the online e-learning PADI course prior to coming to the dive center, so as soon as I arrived they were able to get me into the water to finish my certification training. From the prices to the equipment to the instructors to the location, everything was awesome and the experiences I had at Ombak are making it super hard to leave! I never expected to have so much fun diving, or to get so close with the instructors Sam and Adara, but here I am wishing I could stay all month and dive with them everyday instead of having to go back home! So glad I got to start my diving career with such cool people and looking forward to further exploring the new world they’ve shown me.…

Ombak was amazing!!! I did my rescue diver course with a personal instructor. My English wasn’t that good and they help me with another instructor who speak Spanish. Facility’s clean, perfect location and lovely staff! They make me feel at home in 4 days. Thanks 😉😁

I thoroughly enjoyed diving with Ombak - I done my Open water Padi with them and loved it so much that we extended our stay to continue diving with them. Sam, Adara and Aleix were excellent and very friendly. This is the best dive shop on the island - go there and see for yourself!…

We got there earlier. They were friendly early in the morning even before their breakfast was down their bellies. The way they teach is amazing. The instructors are patient and are able to repeat themselves when you are confused. And they know how to teach in different styles knowing that everyone has a different learning curve way of learning. Perfect if you are going in a group of friends with different skill sets. Most importantly the dorm is also clean and they are a cool bunch of people. Am glad I took the class w Ombak Divers.…
