Universal divers and the whole crew there are definately a great bunch. We arrived on the island around 11.30 and went to the resort to check in. Immediately, we decided we needed to get into the water, so we stumbled across Universal divers and headed straight for the ocean around 12. Ali and Daniel had no idea what to expect... more

We've just come back from two wonderful weeks at Pulau Perhentian Besar. Most of the time we spent diving. We had done our open water course two years ago in the Philipines, so a lot was forgotten already. I came with mixed feelings, since it was more my partner, who had convinced me to dive. However, the careful and patient... more

As grey divers with 20 years diving and 150 dives we feel able to be objective about these guys. 1. Service: This is probably their strongest attribute. Our gear was set up before we arrived in the morning. All we had to do was carry it across the beach to and from the boat. Groups never exceed six and all... more

Finally back from my trip (july 09) and I want to take the time to write down my experience with universal diver.

But things weren,t like they seemed. No bad... more

Our family visited Perhentian July 24 - 27 for our 1st open water dive to obtain our licence. There was me, my wife together with 3 kids, ages 15, 13 & 8. The youngest one was too young to scuba dive, so she followed to snorkle. We arrived in the morning on the island after staying the night at Kuala... more

Stayed one almost two weeks at Perhentian last spring, and went diving with Watercolors about 10 times. I was impressed aboutthe center and Perhentian overall. Even if the visibility was not as good as expected. So at the end of the trip i went with Universal and had my most worthless diving ever. It started when we had the breifing... more

We went to Perhentian Island to have the magic dive experience and we found a fantastic place called 'UniversalDiver'. The whole island is wonderful. The beach is beautiful and you can snorkel right there. We stayed at Tunabay resort which is a really nice place with a good restaurant. Our initial plan was to stay 4 days because I should... more
