Dive confidently with Pindito

22 Trips Every Year – Departing every 2 weeks

We do have mixed trips which are great for dive-snorkel couples (see below). But if it's just diving you're looking for, you can enquire directly about any one of the 22 trips we do each year.

Either way, email me on simon@wildiaries.com or call +61(0)405 220 830 for more info. 

Why diving on Pindito is perfect for you

Diving on board Pindito is perfect for divers who might be older, have special needs (e.g. bad backs), want to do fewer dives per day or simply wish to dive in a vastly smaller group! Even our most experienced divers (hundreds or thousands of dives) prefer the small groups. 

Pindito is not simply a vehicle to go diving. It's a place where we can enjoy diving together. We go way beyond what most vessels provide, by providing individually tailored support and guidance.

Refreshers and skill-ups

If you have not dived for a while, we will offer a refresher. At no point will you feel obliged to keep up with others or to dive in conditions that are uncomfortable for you. Our guests are often overwhelmed by the level of personal care they get from our guides.

During your trip, we can also help you build your skills. You will be a better and more confident diver when you've finished travelling with us.

You won't lift any heavy gear

Divers hardly lift a finger on our trips and we prefer that you don't lift any heavy equipment.

• All your gear will be set up for you daily, according to your preference.
• All equipment is carried for you, to and from the zodiacs. You won't lift a finger.
• Dive gear is lifted onto your back on the zodiac before you back roll.
• To get back in the boat, merely shrug off your kit and we will lift it back into the boat so all you have to do is climb the ladder.
• If you prefer to kit up in the water (we have some clients who have back problems are prefer this), that's fine too, we will place your gear in the water  ; )
• No-one will get upset if we spend a few extra minutes getting ready to enter the water.
• Your camera, wetsuit and BCD are even cleaned and hung for you after each dive.

Our boats and snorkelling

Unlike most ships, we have four tenders and a maximum of four people to each guide. Having four tenders is essential for safety as we will always have the boats on site looking out for you. It also gives us flexibility in terms of where to go. 

Most of the dive sites throughout eastern Indonesia are within a short distance of one another (or the same place). 

Your comfort while diving

A lot of the places we dive can be notorious for strong currents but we NEVER put you in a current unless you are comfortable with that and have the skill to manage it.

The fact is, the vast majority of divers want a 'walk in the park' and this means we will choose places and times that match your expectation and provide an enjoyable experience.

We can do this because we have a flexible itinerary. Unlike other boats that are locked into diving at specific times (due to maximising the number of dives per day),  we do a maximum of 3-4 dives a day (fewer if we are doing some land-based activities or whale watching). We also have the most experienced dive guides in Indonesia with 30 years expertise. We know each site intimately and how to put you in the right place comfortably and safely.    

• We will pick sites, locations and tidal intervals that are suitable for your level of experience.
• If there are divers with mixed experience, we can send some divers to different sites.
• If you require additional in-water support and assistance, we will dedicate a dive guide to help you upskill.
