Port Stephens Guided Scuba Diving Fun Dive

The Guided Scuba Dive at Squids Dive Co is tailored for certified divers who want to explore Port Stephens’ most iconic shore sites with ease. Rather than committing to a fixed location, the dive site is chosen on the day based on tides, swell, and visibility, ensuring optimal conditions and marine life encounters.

Over approximately three hours, divers enjoy a relaxed shore dive led by experienced local guides. The underwater world here is rich and diverse, with soft corals, sea turtles, seahorses, octopus, wobbegong sharks, and schools of fish. Occasional dolphin encounters add to the magic. With small groups (maximum 1:4 ratio), the dive is paced to suit each participant’s skill level, whether newly certified or experienced.

The itinerary includes gear fitting, a safety briefing, and a guided dive lasting 45–75 minutes, followed by a debrief and optional photos. Tanks and weights are provided, while divers bring their own certification card and personal items. This experience is perfect for those seeking maximum marine life with minimal fuss — no boats required, just step off the beach into a protected sanctuary. It’s a full immersion into Port Stephens’ vibrant underwater world.
