What makes Adelaide Scuba different?
Dive Boats
- At Adelaide Scuba we have dive boats berthed at the rear of our shop, giving us easy access to all the amazing dive sites off Adelaide’s coast! Our spacious vessels are equipped with onboard toilets, hot freshwater showers, and hot tea or coffee for the surface intervals. If you're lucky, maybe even a toasted croissant for a snack.
- Learning how to conduct yourself on a boat dive, and what to expect, is a great experience and gives you skills that can be used all around the globe.
- We conduct boat dives as standard for all Open Water Courses.
On-Site Pool
- At Adelaide Scuba we have our very own dive pool in our shop!
- We are not restricted by pool bookings, we can teach any time or any day!
- We don't have strict time-limits - if you need extra time, we have extra time.
- It's nice & private - you don't have to deal with sharing lanes, busy change-rooms or any of those pesky public pool things.
- Taking your first breaths underwater can be intimidating so we aim to make that experience as smooth as possible.
Small Classes
- We are focused on teaching to high standards and not cutting corners.
- With 4 students per class this means we can keep an easy pace, give everyone the attention they need and keep things safe.
- You won't be left behind and you won't be rushed through skills to keep up with the rest.
