LEARN TO DIVE

Over three quarters of the earths surface is water — and yet only a small proportion of the world's peoples get to see what's below the surface!

Scuba and snorkel training is your passport to an incredible world. The Otago coastline has an amazing diversity of marine life to offer the snorkel and scuba diver alike and with Fiordland, Stewart Island and Kaikoura, only a day away the opportunities are awesome.

During your training with Dive Otago you could:

See a Seahorse or Octopus
Drift dive over world renown sponge gardens
Photograph a nudibranch (there are over six species at Aramoana Mole alone!)
Catch your crayfish dinner
Explore the wreck of steamships, a tug, or a dry dock sunk along Aramoana Mole in the 1940S
