Being born and raised in Cape Town, my passion for watersports has been there since I was young. Thanks to that, I am now a scuba and skin diver instructor for over 7 years and have taught in a variety of different environments.
That's why I want to invite you to come with me on a private scuba diving experience to discover the beauty of Cape Town from the water. I'm excited to share my love of my home town, and it's waterfronts with you. During your scuba diving experience in Cape Town, you can enjoy the city from the water while learning a new activity. I'm sure you'll love it!
Did you know that you can scuba dive all year long in Cape Town? Yes! So, no matter the season, you'll be able to discover the lesser known underwater world of Cape Town without needing any prior diving experience.
My favorite place to scuba dive is Simonstown. Meet me there and let's get ready to get in the water. Join me, a local PADI professional who will show you the kelp forests, seals, penguins, small sharks and fish varieties that Cape Town has to offer.
Want to do other watersports? How about some snorkeling? I can always personalize your tour 100% according to your experience. Let me know if you require pick-up from and drop-off to Cape Town. See you soon!
