Description:
The Dive Shack is located right near the beach of Port Noarlunga, only a short bus or train ride away from Adelaide’s other beachside suburbs or the central business district. With the Port Noarlunga Marine Reserve Reef, South Australia’s best known aquatic reserve since 1971, right on our doorstep, we provide one of the best shore dives Adelaide and its surrounding has to offer, every day of the week, whenever you want to go! Besides our Marine Reserve, South Australia has a lot to offer! Join us on our trips to remarkable spots, such as the ex HMAS Hobart (South Australia best known wreck), the Rapid Bay jetty (well known for diving with leafy sea dragons), Victor Harbor (dive with seals!) or one of the many other beautiful reefs and wrecks South Australia has to offer. With a maximum of 10 divers on board, our brand new (mobile) Nauti-Nomad dive boat, guarantees you the ultimate dive experience, allowing for more bottom time at our premier dive sites! As a full service dive facility, The Dive Shack offers an extensive range of diver education courses and resources for the beginner right through to advanced and technical diving. We can cater for any level and our courses are flexible enough to meet the needs of even the busiest people. Have fun and learn as you dive with our professional and knowledgeable crew. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced diver, you will feel totally at ease diving South Australia’s most spectacular reefs, jetties and wrecks.3 Reviews Written

Dive shack camp
For my Year 10 school camp, the dive shack offered a SCUBA diving - open water course. I thought it would be great fun so i chose it, and gladly i was not wrong :). The course started a week long and we spent 2 days at the school, learning the theory side of SCUBA diving and then in the afternoon testing out our skills in the school pool. The Dive Shack supplied all of the equipment so we just had to rock up and all the equipment was in perfect quality. After we had finished our training in Adelaide we went to Edithburgh on the yorke peninsula to test out our skills in the open water. We stayed there for 2 nights at a lovely large common house right on the waterfront. During the days there we went on 4 different dives at 2 different locations. The locations were beautiful and even though it was a little cold (it was the middle of winter) we had so much FUN! and now i am the proud owner of a Open Water diving card, and i can go on SCUBA dives up to a depth of 18m (30m). When we got back to Adelaide, soon after the Dive shack offered a follow up dive at their local reef for only $50 and it was amazing, as we saw so many creatures of the sea. I would definitely recommend the dive shack to anyone!!

Leafy Sea Dragons are truly amazing!
While staying in Adelaide we heard about this dive shop in Adelaide's coastal suburb Port Noarlunga. We decided to give them a call and made an appointment for a shore dive on the marine reserve that's right in front of their shop!
We had only been diving in tropical waters before, so we truly didn't know what to expect, but except for getting used to the 'cold' water (21.C :)), we were totally amazed by this jetty dive and the underwater trail which is set out right from the jetty!
After the dive we decided to book a double boat dive the next weekend, which, again, was awesome! We dove the Aldinga Pinnacles and the MV Seawolf wreck. Visibility was great and the dive leaders were very friendly and helpful as they briefed us on the dive and talked the whole way out there about diving in South Australia and what we could expect.
Our last dive here was the Leafy Sea Dragon tour, which I can recommend to everyone(!). We went to Rapid Bay (by 4WD) and dove the jetty. Without the DM we would have never spotted one as they aren't easy to find, however, during this dive we spotted two!
All in all it was a great experience, especially the sea dragon tour, which we can recommend to everyone! We are sure that we'll come back here and do some more tours, especially now that we've heard that they've started some new tours as well!
