COMPASS DIVING

Family-run, authentic and personal.

Compass was a professional, hospitable, forward-thinking operation. I’ve already recommended to other dive buddies and wrote this review reluctantly because I’m not sure I want the secret to get out!

Jess, USA

The experience with Compass diving was excellent from the initial contact throughout. Kib is a fantastic guide and I felt like a VIP! To top it off, the coral at Atauro is ridiculous! Almost overwhelming - at times I didn’t know where to look!

Briony, Australia

My senior colleague Gerry Allen and I have done well over 10,000 dives between the two of us in the Coral Triangle region, so we are certainly used to high-diversity sites..but Atauro proved exceptionally rich.
