Discover SCUBA Experience Ningaloo Reef

Discover SCUBA Diving

Surrounded by an abundance of fish life hidden amongst rocky ledges and intriguing dive sites, the Ningaloo Reef is located about 10nm west of Exmouth. Keep your eyes open during the  trip for ospreys, shearwaters, turtles, manta rays, dolphins, seasnakes, and during their migration, humpback whales.

We have a wide range of dive sites with a perfect depth of 12m and usually only gentle currents, the dive sites around the Ningaloo Reef are perfect for a Discover Scuba Dive. Look under ledges that provide plenty of places to search for shrimps, nudibranchs, Moray eels, juvenile angelfish and other timid creatures that are hiding. In mid-water and against the reefs look for friendly potato cod, large rankin cod, turtles, nurse sharks, anemones, clams and 100's of darting, colourful reef fish. Late in the year, manta rays grace several of our dive sites, too.

Discover SCUBA Diving

Our Discover SCUBA Diving Experience is perfect for those who do not have time to complete an entire PADI Open Water Course and for those who just wish to have a taste of diving.  The Discover Scuba Diving experience with us will include discussing some basic dive theory with your instructor, introduction to dive equipment and two boat dives. We will visit 2 different sites, the same dive sites that our certified divers enjoy so you'll know you are getting the best the Ningaloo Reef has to offer.

The D.S.D. course is suitable for everyone from 14 years old; those under 18 will need the written approval of a parent/guardian. You do need to have basic swimming ability.  

Diving medicals are not required to participate unless you have an indicator such as (but not limited to) asthma. A Padi DSD online Form will need to be completed at time of booking.

A 'Yes' answer may definitely require clearance from a doctor before you can participate, NO Doctors are available in Exmouth to clear you for diving and you will only be allowed to snorkel.

No refunds or monetary downgrades are possible on the day of the tour if you suddenly notify us you answered a YES on the DSD Medical form due to the assignment of Instructors and limited seats on the boat.. And it is the responsibility of the persons who book or are taking the DSD, to ensure every & each person in the party has completed the online DSD forms prior to the date of the tour, bringing a 'Yes" answer to the attention of shop crew at Exmouth Dive at least 48 hours before the tour date.

NOTE!! The PADI DSD Forms will be checked out on the morning of the tour by your Instructor, upon which if you answered 'Yes' will result in you not participating in the DSD, but you will become a snorkeller. No refunds or monetary downgrades are possible on the day of the tour if we find an answer 'yes' on the questionnaire and you will only be allowed to snorkel.

Advance bookings are essential for Discover Scuba Diving.  This includes the use of all the necessary equipment air fills, transfers from your in-town Exmouth accommodation and 2 boat dives.  We require a minimum of two participants to conduct our DSD program; in the unlikely event that we do not have a second person by 4:30pm the day before your scheduled date you will have two options: 1 – a full refund or 2 – you can pay an additional fee and have a private one-on-one session.
