Scuba Diving & Travel — A Perfect Match
Scuba diving and travel go hand-in-hand.
Every dive trip opens the door to a new world — your next adventure might lead you to your favourite dive site yet, the best wreck you’ve ever explored, or the chance to photograph that elusive marine creature you’ve always wanted to capture.
So, where will your next dive take you?
Maybe it’s a quick overnight escape to Forster, Nelson Bay, or Shellharbour for easy weekend diving. Perhaps a long weekend exploring South West Rocks, Jervis Bay, or Narooma — where you’ll find Grey Nurse sharks, stunning walls, and underwater caves.
If you’re ready to go further, join one of our liveaboard dive expeditions, or take the plunge on an extended international getaway to the Solomon Islands, Fiji, or Papua New Guinea — world-class destinations that offer warm waters, coral gardens, and unforgettable encounters.
There’s a whole world of underwater adventure waiting for you — from the Solitary Islands and Lord Howe Island here at home, to exotic reefs across the Indo-Pacific.
All the destinations we recommend have been explored and personally experienced by our in-house travel guides — we know them well and love to share their secrets with you.
So what are you waiting for?

Dive Jervis Bay
Jervis Bay because of its latitude and shape, is an ideal area for marine life to call home. The bay is home to large as life marine animals, including a huge quantity of smaller macro life, from nudibranchs, fan worms, sea spiders to the elusive Weedy Sea Dragon and a local pipefish, endemic to the bay.
Our sojourn south includes a short boat ride south of Jervis Bay to dive with the permanent breeding seal colony. These incredible animals are so curious and animated, they really do interact with the divers of their own free will.
There are also multiple marine reserves with a national park bounding the shoreline, that supports the abundance of marine life, in the area.
Because of the shape of the bay and headlands, you can dive Jervis Bay in most weather conditions.
Point Perpendicular, a sheer cliff face protects the bay from the most strongest northerly winds, where you will dive soft coral walls, with multiple swim-throughs and small caves.
To the south of the bay is a small shark nursery, with endless macro life and miles of rocky coastline to explore.
Diving at Jervis bay is a great adventure, one that is very popular with our getaway crew heading down south, Be quick to book as this getaway fills very quickly.
