This is a trip on one of our dive boats in the Jervis Bay Marine Park. We cater for all people as best we can depending on conditions. You can be a snorkeler, experienced tech diver or anywhere in between on a general boat dive.
Because of the shape of Jervis Bay, there are dive sites that are sheltered in all but the worst conditions. Average visibility is 10 – 15 meters, and most sites slope down from 5 meters to 30 - 40 meters so you can choose your depth depending on your experience.
We have over 65 Dive Sites with a wide variety of options.

The sites are chosen on the day by the skipper and Dive Master depending on the weather, visibility, and skill level of the group.
