Wow, what an experience! This program allowed me to become scuba certified, make a real difference in helping the earth & meeting the wonderful local people! I had the best time with the reserve & got to have so many new experiences: coral restoration, manta ray & sea turtle sightings.

Gilang and the team at echohero and sanctum dive centre are great. So friendly and welcoming and helped the entire group so much first with passing our open water certification and then with all the dives throughout the rest of the trip. Gill and his team taught us so much about the underwater world including manta, turtles, fish and coral. I would recommend this experience to anyone who wants to learn to dive or who wants to have an amazing time learning about how we can work together to protect the underwater ecosystem.

My time in the reserve with this program was wonderful—the learning and dives were well-planned, informative, and allowed me to achieve my dream of swimming with Manta Rays! Food was delivered or offered onsite, living quarters were comfortable and safe, and the team at Sanctum dive was happy to help us explore the island (shoutout Fish!). Our trip coordinator Amy was absolutely lovely (I should know, she was my roomie!) and I would 100% recommend doing a trip with her and the reserve!

The reserve trip with Worldpackers was incredible! The dive instructor was so patient—I found my confidence fast, even after a shaky start. The Sanctum Dive and the reserve teams were super friendly and even took us exploring on their days off. The rooms were spacious and comfy, and the pool was a great bonus. I loved learning marine ecology—it made every dive more meaningful. Coral conservation and manta ID dives were my favorite. Highly recommend if you want to dive, learn fast, and help the planet!

I felt so welcomed by Gilang, Tabitha and the rest of the team. They were supportive of the fact I was new to diving, having completed the open water certification days before I started the EcoHero program. It was a great introduction to marine ecology, we did some manta and turtle identification, surveys on fish that indicate reef health, coral restoration and surveys. It was interesting and so wonderful to see what work is being done to combat the effect of the climate crisis. My accommodation was great and I could always go hang out at the dive centre if I needed company. Thank you so much!
