Emperor Divers
Amazing diving holidays in Egypt, Maldives, Indonesia and the Solomon Islands
Divers choose Emperor because…
Since 1992, Emperor Divers has been sharing the magic of the Red Sea, Maldives, Indonesia and Solomon Islands with divers from all over the world. In that time, we’ve welcomed thousands of guests – many of whom return to us year after year – drawn back by unforgettable experiences and friendly faces.
Our focus is simple: to deliver safe, sustainable and seriously memorable diving for everyone. With world-class liveaboards, excellent resort diving and a full range of PADI courses, we’re here to help you explore the ocean your way. We have trips that showcase the very best our regions have to offer, led by teams who live and breathe the destinations they dive.
I had the absolute best diving vacation of my life aboard the Best of Raja Ampat trip on Emperor Harmoni. Everything about this liveaboard was next-level. This trip exceeded every expectation I had. Truly a 5-star experience and the best diving trip I’ve ever been on. Highly, highly recommended! (Thomas Davis, November 2025)
We thank every diver and student who’s joined us over the years. We’re proud so many of you return as true ‘Friends of Emperor’. And if you’ve not yet dived with us, we’d love to welcome you aboard and share the knowledge, passion and warm hospitality that have shaped our story for more than three decades.
We were also assigned an excellent instructor who helped us understand the basics of diving, including setting up the equipment, behaving correctly underwater, handling potential problems, and improving our diving skills overall.
Our instructor was very knowledgeable, thorough, and patient in answering all our questions. He also gave constructive feedback whenever we made mistakes, which really helped us improve and gain confidence.
We were extremely happy with both the course and the service provided. Thanks again Assad! Highly recommended.
Super friendly ambiance and great people with large diving experience in multiple countries
The dives were also good because we had best conditions weather.
Our guide, Krishna and Nyoman, was exceptional from start to finish, knowledgeable, calm, and made the whole experience feel effortless and safe. We were lucky enough to see over 10 manta rays, along with turtles and stingrays… truly magical moments underwater.
The service was outstanding the entire day!! professional, well-organized, and genuinely welcoming. If you’re diving in Lembongan, this is the team you want by your side.
Highly recommend. I’ll definitely be back! 🙌
The same to his apprentice(sorry about forgot his name)
Like a private fun diving today
A huge thank you to Kris and Nyoman for an epic day trip to Penida! They knew exactly where to take us and made sure we had an incredible encounter with a large group of mantas. Gliding alongside these graceful giants was a bucket-list moment we’ll never forget. Their guidance, safety briefings, and local knowledge made the whole experience smooth, safe, and truly special.
The boat was comfortable, the equipment well-maintained, and the dive sites chosen perfectly according to conditions. Whether you’re an experienced diver or relatively new, this team will look after you brilliantly.
Highly recommend Emperor Divers Lembongan for anyone wanting top-quality diving around Nusa Lembongan, Penida, and beyond. We’ll definitely be back!
Overall, it was a smooth, enjoyable, and memorable experience. I would absolutely recommend this dive shop to anyone visiting Lembongan and looking for a safe and fun diving adventure.
Great fun
would go back and I recommend
Serious and organized people.
