Tasmanian Divers - South - Tasmania

The team at Tasmanian Divers - South are exactly the kind of patient, knowledgeable instructors you want when tackling Tasmania’s cooler, often wilder waters. We’ve always found their approach to be incredibly thorough, focusing on local conditions and what you’ll actually encounter here. They’re our pick for anyone serious about drysuit diving, given how essential that skill is for comfortable, extended dives around the island. What makes them special isn't just the PADI courses; it's the emphasis on practical, cold-water diving techniques. Learning your Deep or Enriched Air Diver speciality here means doing it in real-world conditions, often with strong currents and lower visibility than tropical spots. We love their club dives, which are a great way to meet other local divers and explore sites like the wreck of the SS Nord, shrouded in kelp and often visited by curious seals. They’re fantastic for getting comfortable in a drysuit, which we’d consider non-negotiable for diving Tassie. You'll feel the crisp bite of the water on your face at the surface, but once down, snug in your drysuit, you’re free to watch the dense kelp sway and search for seadragons.
