Ahoy matey and/or lassy! Welcome to the Ocean Pearl, home of the Black Pearl. No really, one of our Dunghis is called the Black Pearl. Obviously someone here is a fan of Jack Sparrow and friends.

Would you like to meet our intrepid team of buccaneers? Well come along then...

First, the number one scoundrel. Chotu (the Little One). A little powerhouse, there is nothing this man cant do. The other day the cook mentioned that he needed some coconut for the nights dinner.x It was 9PM in the evening. What does Chotu do? Not run to the market like a normal person would have done, Oh no! that would be too easy. He went out and climbed a coconut tree and was back with two fresh coconuts in 10 minutes. Add to his tree climbing skills, the ability to drive a boat, cook, clean and now soon to be PADI Rescue Diver and you can see why the Little One is an invaluable part of our team.

Scoundrel Number two and Chotu's partner in crime. Sanjeev manages the boys in the resort and is another one of those people who is capable of doing almost anything to keep the resort operations going. Together he and Chotu form the cornerstones of Ocean Pearl. Also soon to be PADI Rescue diver, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound (well he would be if we had any tall buildings on Havelock Island). Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No its Scubaman Sanjeev.

Like Chotu, a descendent of the Krane tribe, Parex is another dynamic member of our team. A natural diver, we have begun to wonder if this man even needs SCUBA gear to dive. Drives a mean Dunghi, has been known to look a little bit mean at times too although you wouldn't be able to tell from the silly pose in the picture. Is fascinated by Sea Cucumbers, especially the big black ones. We still haven't quite figured out why.

Theres a few more filibustiers on their way here and I will give you the 411 on them when they do.

The last and very least in this team of social misfits is me, Jonathan. Open Water Scuba Instructor and Nitrox Instructor. Committed to teaching diving and trying to keep my team of swashbuckling bandits in line. We promise to do our best to make sure you have a safe and enjoyable time whether it be diving or just chilling out at the resort. Look forward to seeing you. Cheers!

The Andamans are a magical place. Life moves more slowly here, untouched by commercialism and modern intrusions. Unwind after a day's diving by relaxing on a hammock or sunning yourself on the beach. What the Andamans do have to offer is clear, warm water with one of the largest variety of coral and fish life anywhere on the planet. And that is where Ocean Pearl Beach Resort and its team of experienced dive professionals come in.
