About
We operate Padi Scuba Diving courses from Intro Diving in the pool through to Dive Master. We run Certified Charters out of Nelson NZ on weekends - Saturdays and Sundays. We cater for the beginner diver through to the experienced diver and provide a personal experience - discussing with you which sort of diving you are interested in and we endeavour to plan the trip around your interests where possible, (often weather dependent). We are a PART-TIME operator so please be patient to our replies.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

You could not find more friendly people than Paul and Janelle.
Had a brilliant dive trip to Okiwi bay and Paul showed me how to catch a crayfish, something that I found not to be an easy task.
I would recommend Paul for first timers or experianced divers wanting something more challenging.
The only limitation is its not a full time business.
Highly recommended.
Thanks

A great day diving with Paul and Janelle, with some awesome sights. We shared the dives with heaps of fish, seals and crays! For us the best diving in NZ so far, despite the cooler water and the very early start. We dived at Stephens Island and surrounds and when we weren't diving we were able to catch fish and enjoy the entertainment of Paul's ongoing humour, while at all times feeling like we were in capable hands. Thanks so much to Paul and Janelle for a wonderful day - keep up the great team work!

A couple of excellent scuba dives off Cable Bay, Nelson NZ. Well organized, very good gear available for rent and a couple of brilliant tips for how to prevent mask fogging.
Lots of interesting marine life including carpet shark, tame blue cod and some of the largest crayfish I've seen.
