Bathala – 07.09.2018

Bathala is in the starting blocks. All contracts were signed in the last weeks and the hotel operator has informed us that there will be a soft opening in February 2019.

We have been running the dive center at Bathala for years and hope to start again in February 2019. We are looking forward to return with you to the awesome dive sites in Ari Atoll: Fishhead, Mayaa Thila, Maaga Thila, Manta Point and, of course, Bathala Thila as well as to the house reef for sensational night dives. Finally it’s thumbs up! Now we have to keep our fingers crossed that everything is going as planned!

We will have an international team on site again. It has not been decided yet who of our current team will be the dive centre manager. But it is already certain that our compressor Boy Zaid from Bangladesh will be there again. Many of you will still remember him.

According to the latest information provided by the responsible people in the Maldives, 24 water bungalows are planned. Those will be built in the lagoon. So far the construction of these bungalows has not yet started. We also know that 50 new bungalows will replace the old ones. However, the diving centre will remain in its present structure.

Currently Bathala can be booked through DER Touristik Group (DER Tour, ITS, Meiers Weltereisen, KUONI, Manta). Our booking centres in Germany and Switzerland will be happy to assist you with your holiday planning.
