Diving and snorkelling are adventure sports that thousands of kiwis enjoy.

 

They combine the excitement of exploration with the fascinating beauty of the underwater world.

 

Statistically, diving is one of the safest sporting activities around. This, of course, does not mean that there aren't potential dangers inherent with diving. With care and appropriate training it is safe – but for those who take risks it can quickly become life threatening.

Always investigate and confirm that conditions are safe before diving. Consider currents, wind, tides, swell, boat traffic, alternate/emergency exits, and ability to obtain medical aid/evacuation in an emergency.

 

Never dive alone - Always dive with a buddy and stay with your buddy throughout the dive.

Plan the dive together - Always predetermine and agree on maximum depth and bottom time before diving and this plan should be followed by all participants.
