White Whale Divers is a PADI affiliated centre offering a comprehensive curriculum. For beginners, they provide the Discover Scuba Diving programme and the Open Water Diver course.

Advanced divers can progress through the Advanced Open Water Diver, Rescue Diver, and Divemaster levels. The centre also specialises in specific skills through specialties such as Wreck Diver, Deep Diver, Drift Diver, Underwater Navigator, and Enriched Air (Nitrox) Diver, as well as Emergency First Response training.

The centre operates a luxury boat that was fully renovated in May 2025. This vessel is designed to function as a high-end day boat for daily excursions, while also being well-suited for the requirements of a liveaboard.

The boat features two lounges, an extended dive deck, and a large sun deck for relaxation between dives. For those on full-day trips, a varied buffet is served on board. The vessel is powered by twin engines and is equipped to provide Nitrox to divers.

Equipment hire is available on-site for those who do not wish to carry their own kit. However, for those undertaking formal certification courses, the centre suggests that using your own high-quality personal equipment is preferable.

Nitrox is available for divers looking to extend their bottom times and reduce nitrogen loading during repetitive dives.
