Company description The Byron Bay Dive Centre is Byron Bay`s leading dive and snorkel specialist. This diving facility was established over twenty years ago and since then our goal has always been to ensure our customers enjoy a safe, rewarding and memorable diving experience.
Join one of our guided dive trips and let us show you Julian Rocks Marine Reserve, one of Australia`s most spectacular dive sites. The Byron Bay Dive Centre caters for all levels of experience.
At the Byron Bay Dive Centre you can complete a range of PADI and SSI dive courses but be prepared to share your classroom with giant sea turtles and friendly blue gropers.
If diving`s not your thing then join one of our daily snorkelling trips to Julian Rocks. You will be amazed by the diversity and colour found in the reserve`s clear shallow waters.
he Byron Bay Dive Centre is the only diving facility in Byron Bay that issues PADI, SSI and NAUI diving certifications.
All confined water training is conducted at the dive shop, an instructor training facility, located in the heart of Byron Bay. Here we have a fully equipped classroom and a training pool heated to 25 degrees Celsius.
All open water-training dives are boat dives conducted at Julian Rocks Marine Reserve. Here you will swim with tropical species such as turtles and manta rays, as well as many interesting southern ocean animals including friendly blue gropers and wobbegongs. All this only a five-minute boat ride from Byron Bay.
Qualified scuba diving instructors supervise all course dives.
