Why should I dive with Kiwi Divers?

• We want you to enjoy your diving experience so you’ll come to love diving as we do.
• Our instructors are passionate about diving and will ensure that your first underwater experience will be a fun and safe experience.
• We like to keep our classes small (usually 4 to 8 students) so that you have more one on one time with the instructor.
• We have regular dive trips (up to 5 trips a week) throughout the year from our own boat (not charters). We believe that once you've learnt to dive, you'll want to carry on so why not learn with a centre that actually gets out diving?!
• We have a best price guarantee. If you find a better price for the same equipment, we'll match it.
• We offer our students extra sessions if required so that you are comfortable before going out into the ocean.
• We have a high standard of well maintained equipment in our school including computers.
