About

At Blue Marlin Dive Tech, we specialize in taking divers beyond the limits of recreational diving and into the challenging world of technical exploration. Based on the pristine Gili Trawangan, the heart of Indonesia’s diving paradise, our tech division is known for its top-tier training and commitment to the most advanced diving techniques. The Gilis are the perfect backdrop for technical diving, offering an array of deep walls, wrecks, and untouched underwater landscapes that are ideal for both training and exploration. Our courses cover the full spectrum of Technical Diving International (TDI) certifications, from Advanced Nitrox to CCR (Closed Circuit Rebreather) diving, which has become a major focus for Blue Marlin Dive Tech. CCR technology is revolutionizing the way we dive, allowing for longer, deeper, and more efficient dives. Here in the Gilis, with their diverse and accessible dive sites, our CCR training programs thrive. Whether you’re conducting deep decompression dives or fine-tuning your buoyancy on a rebreather, the Gilis offer an unmatched variety of environments for practice and certification. Our proximity to exceptional dive sites makes it easy for our students to transition from classroom training to real-world application, often diving in conditions that closely mimic the most challenging technical environments. The combination of Blue Marlin Dive Tech’s expertise and the world-class dive locations in the Gilis means that students not only receive world-class instruction but also have access to ideal sites to perfect their skills.
