Adelaide Adventure Charter Pty Ltd - South Australia
Adelaide Adventure Charter is our pick for exploring South Australia's cooler waters. They’re PADI-certified, running their "Dive Boat" specialty course, which is a great way to get comfortable with boat entries and exits if you're relatively new to that style of diving. We've found their local knowledge invaluable, particularly when chasing the leafy sea dragons at sites like Rapid Bay Jetty. The team knows the best times to find these masters of camouflage, usually in the calmer mornings before the breeze picks up. You'll want to layer up, even in summer, as the water here can get a bit brisk.
