Scuba diving is a lesser known hobby to take up in Malaysia and not many would know where exactly to take lessons for this niche activity. Did you know that there is a private bungalow café located in Jalan Gasing with a swimming pool and it is in fact used for scuba diving lessons?

Scuba Genesis hosts classes at the bungalow pool in PJ and their aim is to have a place where scuba divers, dive masters and instructors can meet up and makan as well as teach and learn together.

Whether you’re looking to learn scuba diving for your next island trip or you wish to pursue the role of a scuba diving instructor as a career, Scuba Genesis offers an avenue for Malaysians to learn more about this activity.

There is even a café where you can grab something to eat after your little “workout” session. The meals available at the café would no doubt fill you up. Among the meal offerings are the smoked duck breast (RM16), Maryland chicken chop (RM18) and the spaghetti carbonara (RM13.90). If you have more of a sweet tooth, opt for the chocolate banana waffles (RM17) or some premium Thai coconut ice cream (RM8.90) instead.
