The majority of international travelers are by now aware that Tioman is surrounded by a crystal-clear sea. But apart from the great numbers of regular scuba divers, tec diving aficionados from around the world are drawn to our waters in particular, because Tioman offers awesome reefs, of both the real live coral and the artificial kind, that are ideal for tec divers to explore.

Tec Diving:
What is tec diving? Tec diving is a form of scuba diving that goes beyond the more conventional
recreational scuba diving boundaries, particularly when it comes to water depth and total time spent underwater. Whilst tec diving exposes the diver to higher risks than recreational diving, the rewards of tec diving are numerous.

It goes without saying that the prerequisites for safe tec diving are extensive diving experience, advanced training and specialized equipment, especially since tec diving may also involve breathing gases other than air or standard
nitrox.
