Currents

Drift diving year-round. We match sites to the day's conditions.

Season by season

May–Aug

The calmest, warmest stretch — water up toward 29°C.

Aug–Oct

Rainy season. Showers come in the afternoon and clear quickly; the diving is unaffected.

Nov–Feb

Around 26°C, and the season for eagle rays. Northerly winds can move us to sheltered sites.

Mar–Apr

Quiet, and a sweet spot between the two.

Wetsuit. A 3 mm full suit suits most divers year-round. Bring a 5 mm or an extra layer for winter, or if you feel the cold on repetitive days.
