Diving для всех Отзыв о детском дайвинге, что оказалось абсолютно реально организовать в Thoddoo Diving Center. Полный инструктаж, хорошее оборудование,сопровождение,безопасность, полное доверие - высокий уровень профессионалов! Если хоть один пункт был бы упущен, ребёнка бы не отпустила и сама не пошла..Здесь все сошлось, спасибо Анатолию! Подводный мир - бесконечная красота, жизнь и движение..Описать сложно, нужно видеть. А посмотреть на Мальдивах точно есть на что и на кого) Ещё раз спасибо за этот прекрасный опыт, мой и дочери (11 лет)!

Awesome diving We had four amazing dives in Thoddhoo and the nearby islands, the dive sites are stunning, teeming with all sorts of sea life. Anatolijs and his team were very helpful, skilled and friendly. I appreciate that they checked us out first in an easier dive before we went on to more complicated ones. If you're planning to go try to make arrangements early- the centre can get busy, and yet they dive frequently so there's enough diving opportunity. Overall unforgettable experience, looking forward to visit again!

Первое посещение Мальдив и первое погружение Очень хотелось попробовать поплавать с аквалангом. Решилась! На Тодду! С прекрасным инструктором Анатолием. Анатолий - настоящий профессионал своего дела: подробный инструктаж, отличное снаряжение и техническая подготовка погружения. Человек с прекрасным чувством юмора и постоянной улыбкой на лице и в глазах! При погружении и после (особенно впервые) взрослый человек получает самые восторженные, совершенно новые впечатления и ощущения при знакомстве с ранее недоступным подводным миром. Спасибо огромное Анатолию! С его помощью я осуществила свою давнюю мечту.

Вот я и стал дайвмастером!!!! Впервые попробовал дайвинг здесь, наТодду, под чутким руководством Анатолия в апреле 2017 года. Далее были две поездки сюда же, получил сертификаты ow и aow, затем rescue. И вот свершилось. Прилетел в ноябре 2019 года, три недели, и я дайвмастер! Толь. Спасибо тебе огромное что открыл для меня этот чудесный мир! Ты мой друг, наставник и вообще наш Вождь❤️🙏

perfektes Tauchen Es wird einem jeder Wunsch von den Lippen abgelesen. Kein Wunsch bleibt unerfüllt und das Riff um Thoddoo ist noch super intakt. Rashdoo ist sowieso immer einen Bootsausflug wert. Kann diese Basis nur weiterempfehlen. Die Guids sind alles super professionell und lieben ihre Arbeit.

Extremely exciting We had several diving sessions. Each of them was a great. We observed underwater life: turtles, sharks, stingrays, millions of fishes, we were lucky to meet whale shark. Pro Dive team is very professional and they have all neccessary equipment. We have kid of 10 years old with us and Anatoliy (Pro Dive Boss) made our experience and journey easy and memorable. Highly reccomend

Great diving, an amazing dive shop, and more! Just came back from a stay in Thoddoo. I was looking for some nice diving, and I ended up connecting with Anatolijs, who runs the Pro Dive Hydrotech dive shop. He made the entire trip so easy for me - he basically took care of not just the diving, but also my speedboat transfers to/from Thoddoo, and my lodging. I don't know how he does it, but he responds really quickly via Whatsapp. And this personal attention continued once I was on the island. He is very personable, a great storyteller, and an amazing divemaster. Had five great dives with Anatolijs. He and his staff make it a very enjoyable, non-rushed experience, with great equipment, excellent service and - of course - amazing diving. We saw manta rays (incredible!), sea turtles, sharks, moray eels, barracudas, 1,000 of fish, stingrays and more. Just really nice diving. Water is warm, coral is beautiful. In short, if you want to have a great diving experience, you have come to the right place!

Great experience 🙌 Big thanks to Damijan, Mateja & Miha for a great diving trip.
Excellent diving center, organization of preparation for dives and the dives themselves at a high level, high-quality equipment. The team of the center are professionals in their field, special thanks to instructors Sergey and Alexander for great dives and new experience and knowledge in diving, thanks to which I also received Advanced certification.

The worst diving center in the world, and I've been to many places. In my entire life, I have never seen such destruction of underwater life as the guides did during one dive. Cruelty to animals, tearing the reef from the bottom with their hands, destroying it with fins. People should have their guide licenses revoked, the diving center closed and severely punished. Moreover, the diving equipment was terribly damaged. Attempts to cheat the customer at every step. Don't let the owner's positive attitude fool you. Underwater you will be shocked by the quality of this center.The worst diving center in the world and I've been to many places.

It was great to have a dive with Sergey which made a great experience! The whole team is super kind!The video via WhatsApp after the dive was very nice! 😊
I never thought about diving, it seemed like a scary and dangerous activity, but my tour included a test dive, and I didn’t refuse. Now my life is divided into before and after. It was love at first sight, and now diving will become an integral part of my trips to the sea. Thanks to Thoddoo Diving Center and a special thank you to diving instructor Alexander for becoming my guide to the world of diving. Under Alexander’s guidance, I was able to calmly enjoy all the beauty of the underwater world and felt completely safe. It was very interesting and as positive as possible)) Despite the fact that Alexander kept everything under control, it was comfortable, I even forgot for a while that I was at a depth of 12 m =) It’s difficult to convey emotions, I was delighted with what I saw and the process of swimming under water. We saw stingrays, manta rays, turtles, various fish and stars, and after that I also got a bunch of cool videos as souvenirs. I wish the diving center development and as many pleasant guests from all over the world as possible) I 100% recommend Thoddoo Diving Center to everyone.

We had a great time with lots of sharks, sea life of all shapes and sizes and beautiful corals. We also felt super safe and got everything well explained. Special thanks to our dive masters Serg and Alex, you guys are awesome and professionals!Plus, the ATM on this island wasn’t working so we had no chance to get any cash. The owner, Anatolijs, helped us and got us some in no time.All in all I can highly recommend this place!
I went diving twice with instructor Alexander, I definitely recommend it - everything was explained clearly and to the point, showed great videos, very satisfied!

We did resort excurtion with Thoddoo diving center and it was exactly as it was showed on the videos they sent us before the excurtion. The best in the resort was thr reef from where we could se all kind of fish, rays and sharks. It was simple to swimm also for kids. Great experience. I recommend it.
I thank Thoddoo Diving Center for their professionalism 👍🏼 If you are visiting Thoddoo and want to not only lie on the sand, but have a great time, you should definitely contact these guys. They know their stuff and love what they do. In addition to well-organized excursions, they also help in a purely human way with solving various issues 👍🏼 Special thanks for the store where you can buy high-quality equipment for snorkeling and just for relaxation, as well as for the fact that they bring amazing sunscreen products made locally: this is my first time no burns or allergies) Ekaterina, Alexander - thank you for everything! Every year on vacation one way or another with you! On my next visit I will definitely dive: if it weren’t for my ears, I would have dived into this one already)

If it were possible to give this organization zero stars, I would give it zero.We visited this dive center twice, for diving and excursion. The diving went perfectly, for which many thanks to our instructor Sergei. From the first minutes it was clear that we were in the hands of professionals, and therefore the first diving experience turned out to be as comfortable, safe and interesting as possible.Unfortunately, returning to this center for a tour canceled out all the positive emotions from the past experience. It would be better to go diving again than to have this misunderstanding. Organizing the excursion is a complete failure. For 22 participants there was only one instructor, Alexander. Whether one instructor can ensure safety and order in such a large group is an open question. In parallel with our group, there was another mini-group in the boat with its own separate instructor.The first point of the excursion was the manta rays. I had a dream - to swim with manta rays, and due to organizational problems this dream did not come true. At this point, already in the water, it turned out that the snorkeling mask issued by the organizers was defective: its attachment for the snorkel was broken, so the snorkel fell off and floated away every two minutes. Most of the time, instead of searching for manta rays, was spent catching the tube and trying to fix it in place; in the end, the tube was taken away by a wave and carried to the bottom. I swam up to the instructor and asked if there was a spare mask, because my snorkel had sunk. “Bad. Fine 20 dollars,” said the instructor and sailed off into the sunset (literally sailed away without offering at least some solution to the problem). This was the first time I encountered such a disregard for the organizers. At the very end of my stay at this location, I borrowed someone else’s mask, but I never saw the manta rays... And I wouldn’t have seen everything else if not for a girl from the excursion participants who, returning to the boat, found a lost tube at the bottom, dived and returned it to me. Only thanks to this girl I was able to swim at least a little at the second point (still constantly catching the snorkel) and not end up paying $20 for an initially defective mask))If at the first point the participants managed to somehow disperse, then at the second, with the sharks, it was a complete mess. Due to the large number of participants in a small space, it was constantly being hit on the head by someone’s flipper or someone’s elbow.The third point, with a sand spit - no questions, everything was clear, the food was delicious with sandwiches with french fries and watermelon.And only at the last, fourth point, Alexander reluctantly said, “Well, let’s see what you have there,” became convinced that the fastening of my mask was really faulty, and moved the tube holder from his mask to mine. Only at this location I was able to fully snorkel.To summarize: I categorically recommend diving from this company and categorically do not recommend excursions.

I always thought that diving was not for me, however, in the Maldives I decided to try diving for a taste. I turned to Anatoly and am very pleased! Everything went just fine, as soon as I surfaced I wanted to go back, which I did the next day. I want more) So I’ll definitely come back) I saw a manta ray, 2 reef sharks, a turtle, a green moray eel.
Thanks to the guys, we all came as a group and dived for the first time. They told everything, helped, explained) they are sincere and cheerful, they give everything you need, masks, fins and wetsuits. There was a girl with us who filmed our stay underwater on camera, special thanks for that ☺️ It’s incredibly cool that everyone’s first experience is so positive, thanks to the guys who are super professionals 🤗
Daivila for the first time, emotions were overflowing. The guys are masters of their craft. I liked it so much that I went diving a second time. As a bonus, Alexander shot with go pro. Now the memory remains. Thank you guys. It’s been a month since I came home and am watching the video. Damn, it was great in the Maldives!

I did 5 dives, including 2 night dives, and it was a great experience. The boat was great and the instructors were very friendly and professional. You may feel a bit left out because the guests are from Russia, but since we communicated with the instructors in English, there were no major problems diving.I have dived in many places including Southeast Asia, Southwest Asia, Central and South America, and Africa, but the underwater environment in the Maldives was truly the best. It was so beautiful, from big things like mantas and sharks to various fish and colorful corals! If you are a diver, I definitely recommend diving at Todu Island!I had the privilege of embarking on 5 dives, including 2 mesmerizing night dives, with this amazing crew! My underwater journey allowed me to witness the captivating beauty of the marine world and encounter a diverse array of sea creatures. The entire experience with Thoddoo Diving Center was truly remarkable and left me in awe!

♥️💙🧡💜💚💛I am very happy and grateful for an extraordinary vacation, words cannot express all my feelings and gratitude 🌅 I came with my husband to upgrade him to the level of advanced adventure diver, in the end I also trained myself, no longer a tea bag 😄Thank you to the instructor Aliaksandr Shykun 🤗 It was a pleasure to dive together, thank you for your patience 😂 After training with him, I feel very confident and ready to move on! I will definitely return to him for further training!🏝️ I really love underwater life, I’ve been drawn to it all my life, I’ve studied it, but without scuba gear it’s difficult to experience all the beauty. I wish you all unforgettable experiences, if you are hesitating, you are mistaken, dive in and fill your life with memorable moments, most importantly with the right people! Alexander, thank you endlessly, may your wonderful work bring happiness to people and you!🐟🐙🐬🦀With gratitude, Anna Kaftanova 💙

We saw a bunch of different fish, sharks, manta rays, moray eels, went to Ukulas, Rasdu, a sunken ship. Particularly impressive was the night dive on the house reef - diving sparkled with new colors! The guys are very friendly and professional. Thanks to the whole team, especially Anatoly and our wonderful instructor Alexander for such a great vacation!

Many thanks to the diving center for an unforgettable experience of a lifetime! I went diving for the first time in my life, initially there were many fears (which naturally turned out to be false 🙂 ), but they instantly evaporated when I fell into the reliable hands of instructors. The first dive with me was Anatoly, he brought me up to speed clearly and understandably, I felt completely safe. The second and third dives were instructor Sasha, with whom I felt completely safe and got incredible pleasure from diving. I must say that I am a very clumsy and not a sports person, but even I did it 😃 I am happy that I managed to see the manta. I also want to thank the cameraman Alena for her support and for capturing our dives, it's just super. And in general, everyone who was in the diving center always answered questions in detail, supported and created a very friendly atmosphere. P.S. And thank you that thanks to you we managed to dive with my husband together 🥰 and a huge piece of advice: go diving at the very beginning of your vacation!!! If we had not slowed down, we would have had time to undergo training and obtain a certificate. But on the other hand, we now have a reason to return to Thoddoo and the diving center😊 this is one of the best experiences in my life!

Wonderful private experience doing the introduction ‘try diving’ with Alexander and Anthony. We saw colourful fishes, two sharks and a turtle and dove for 46 minutes. Alexander tried his best finding manta rays but we couldn’t find any unfortunately. The current was also quite strong but Alexander tried to make the best out of it. Very honest and not overpromising.Reyber

Lady from the front desk was so busy with her phone that didn’t turn her face after I entered. She was sitting beside a big black old PC, highly unlikely she was a guest there. I didn’t want to disturb her more and just left that place. No sense to ask more about questions related with safety maybe next time she will be in a blue mood and organize your dive in a “wrong” way. Pretending that she was a visitor look awkwardly. Also you can find her on the photos 🙄

We did not have transportation to get from Thoddoo to Rasdhoo, and we took advantage of a tour from this company; everything was perfect.Guide Ali took us to see manta rays and then we saw and fed lots of goldfish. and finally, in Rasdhoo, Ali managed to attract nurse sharks to the port, and we even got to touch them! One of the best experiences in the Maldives.I recommend this company 100%. Its manager, Dinara, is professional and friendly, she is in everything. Thank you!!!

The dive center and the equipment are in great condition. The dive site was also great. However, we have a bad feeling about the crew. There are a lot of Russian tourists in Thoddoo, and this dive center is also run by a few Russian guys. They can speak really good English, but most of the time they speak only Russian even if there are a lot of other nationalities on the boat. The briefing before diving lasts a few minutes in Russian, and for like a half minute in English. We had an overall feeling that this place is mostly for Russian tourists.

We did not really enjoy our experience with Thoddoo Diving Center.We do understand they can not control visibility or marine animals (we were not able to see mantas although they told us they were seeing them everyday) but anyway it felt like they were in a rush all the time and only took us 2 minutes away from the port despite of charging us 70 dollars per person.

Very good and professional dive center! The owner advises you well about the diving sites, at fair prices. Good equipment for renting. Beautiful reefs with a lot of marine life to see. Sharks, mantas, turtles and many species of fish seen.

I received my open water dive certification here under Anatolijs, who is a great instructor. He was friendly, patient and very thorough with training and skill development. Everything was super well organized, including high quality dive equipment and boats. I got to dive with a whole team of professionals and see a lot of underwater life including sharks, turtles, manta rays, stingrays and much more. Highly recommend this place, and I’ll be back soon.
Great diving centre! Anatoly is helpful and friendly! Inspiring experience of swimming with sharks and turtles under water!

Amazing diving centre on the local island of Thoddoo, run by mostly Russian staff with great experience in diving.We were 2 beginners doing a Try Dive, where I already dived once and it was a first time for my girlfriend. They took us on a private speedboat, where all the gear was ready and we have received a basic training. Our crew consisted of 3 certified instructors.However my girlfriend was quite scared of diving and our crew made their best to calm her down, keep her relaxed and she actually did wonderfully and reached full depth of 12m in her first dive.For me, I had no issues and it was the best dive of my life. My instructor gave me some freedom during the dive and made me feel safe during the whole dive.We dived at the Manta point in Thoddoo and got to see Mantas, turtles, beautiful corals and much more.As a beginner diver I can only recommend and praise PDH diving centre.
