In December 2022, on the sun-drenched shores of Gili Trawangan, Kiki and Made Astawa launched Zero to Hero Dive with a dream and just four sets of scuba gear hanging in their home. Fueled by passion and a commitment to sharing the ocean’s wonders, they built their vision from the ground up, guided by their slogan: Dive Local, Give Local, Dive with Purpose.
Through relentless hard work and the incredible support of their customers, Kiki and Made Astawa transformed their small operation into a thriving dive center. By April 2023, they expanded to include more dive equipment, a dedicated boat, and a welcoming office just 400 meters from Gili Trawangan’s vibrant harbor. Their journey didn’t stop there. In October 2025, Zero to Hero Dive boasts 15 sets of top-quality scuba gear, three boats, and even a beautiful 2 hotel room with a pool, and open another Zero to Hero Dive Centre in Gili Air, offering divers a complete tropical experience.
At Zero to Hero Dive, we’re more than a dive center—we’re a family. Our multilingual team, fluent in English, Indonesian, German, French, and Spanish, welcomes divers from around the globe.
