We are the only Dive Center on Silhouette Island with a Marine Park to explore all to ourselves, divers can expect unspoiled dive sites.

 

We will rent you complete diving equipment so pack light. We also have a fully equipped, partially shaded dive boat.

 

To be able to give the best service possible and to protect our Marine Park, we keep the dive group small. All dives are guided by boat. The time to reach the dive sites varies from 15 minutes for most of the sites around Silhouette and around 40 minutes to go to North Island.

 

Refreshments like water and snacks such as biscuits/fruits are offered onboard. We go out to dive twice a day and provide night dives on request subject to the weather conditions.
