Before You Book: 4 Pro Tips
1. The "Ferry" Factor:
Packages often exclude ferry tickets. Ferries to Tioman (Mersing/Teluk Gading) sell out fast on weekends. Always book your dive package and ferry tickets at least 3 weeks in advance.
2. Check the "Inclusions":
At TDB SunBeach, we believe in transparency. However, always check if your package includes equipment rental. For Fun Dives, gear rental is often charged per day unless you bring your own.
3. Seasonality Matters:
Tioman is best dived from March to October. Monsoon season (Nov-Feb) may limit boat access, though shore diving is sometimes possible.
4. Insurance is Key:
Standard travel insurance often excludes scuba diving. Ensure your policy covers "water sports" or "scuba diving" specifically.

Whether you want to get certified or just blow bubbles, we have the perfect plan for you.
