Big Ocean Dive is built around two powerful paths: one for schools, and one for divers.
We’re Southeast Asia’s go-to partner for international school outdoor programs, and a trusted name in scuba diving education and adventure. Based in Kuala Lumpur since 2015, we’ve spent the last decade delivering unforgettable learning experiences—both above and below the surface.
For schools, we co-create curriculum-aligned trips across Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand that spark growth, leadership, and real-world connection. For divers, we offer certified training and guided trips to some of the region’s most stunning marine ecosystems.

Our students came back more confident, connected, and inspired. The trip was exceptionally well-organized, and we’ll definitely be working with Big Ocean Dive again!
Joined my 12 year old daughter for her open water certification in Tioman. YY, the instructor, was very good and patient and really ensured the skills were practiced and learned.
Family friendly, professional and fun! We had a fantastic trip to the Maldives with both experienced and beginner divers. Memories for a lifetime!
