Equipment quality and maintenance

Rental equipment is inspected, maintained and serviced regularly. Anything worn, leaking or not fitting correctly is addressed before the dive begins.

Still wondering about something?

Ask us on WhatsApp
01Is accommodation really included for free?+

Yes. Every package includes dorm accommodation at The Penida Project at no extra accommodation cost. Discover Dive and Fun Dives include 1 night, SSI Advanced includes 2 nights, and SSI Open Water includes 3 nights. Room upgrades and extra nights can be added during booking.

02I am a beginner—which package should I choose?+

Choose Discover Dive for a closely supervised first experience without certification. Choose SSI Open Water if you want a multi-day course and an internationally recognised certification.

03Who operates the diving and safety checks?+

Project Laut operates every in-water activity. Its qualified instructors and divemasters manage equipment, briefings, safety checks, dive sites and group plans around your experience and the conditions.

04Is The Penida Project a party hostel?+

It is a social hostel with a bar, restaurant and rotating activities—not a nonstop party hostel. Most activities finish around 10pm; selected Saturdays and full-moon events can run later.

05Are manta rays or specific dive sites guaranteed?+

No. Mantas are wild animals and ocean conditions change. Project Laut chooses sites, timing and schedules around safety, your level and the best possible experience that day.

06Do you arrange the fast boat and harbour pickup?+

We can help arrange the fast boat. When it is booked through The Penida Project, harbour pickup is included. Exact routes and timings are confirmed with your arrival plan.
