Just had the wildest experience diving with nurse sharks at Bushrangers Bay! Nothing prepares you for being surrounded by a dozen real sharks, all circling and coming right up to say hi - at one point, I was literally face-to-face with one! The initial shock quickly turned into excitement, and the guides made it feel totally safe. If you ever get the chance, do it - “swimming with sharks” will never mean the same thing again. Thank you for this unforgettable experience!

I did my open water dive certification with Mark back in December, and it was such a good and fun experience. Big thanks to Mark. He is so knowledgeable and patient.

And today we went back and did our first fun dive with Roman and Lexi. It was again such a great experience. North Bondi was so beautiful. And everything ran smoothly because of them. I really appreciate their help.

Highly recommended for anyone who wants to dive in Sydney!

Super excited to have finished my open water dive courses and recieved my PADI certification with Dive Center Bondi

Thanks Leah, our dive instructor for all the help and support throughout the course. She made us feel very welcomed and safe during our learning and she is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly too. Really recommend taking the course for anyone who hasn’t tried yet and ask for Leah for a guaranteed good experience.

I complete the PADI open water course the last 2 weekends and it was incredible. My instructor was Mark, he was an amazing teacher! He was great at explaining and demonstrating techniques, very encouraging and always kept it fun! Overall, was an unreal experience and I am super excited to start my diving adventures!

Instructor course is A class! I can highly recommend DCB for anyone looking to learn for the first time or continuing education/advanced courses. The team is highly professional and all are experts in the industry. Even with a small shop, they make the most of it with well stocked shelves and high-quality rental gear. For the instructor course, Woody is a fantastic course director and made sure I was as prepared as possible for my final exam. Roman, Cameron, Luca and the rest of the team are all fantastic. Cheers!

As a PADI instructor no: 347749 with a passion for diving, I have had the opportunity to explore various dive centers and locations around the world. Recently, I had the pleasure of diving at Dive Center Bondi, and I can confidently say that their professionalism, equipment, and instructor engagement are truly top-notch.
From the moment we arrived, it was clear that safety is a priority at this dive center. The equipment was well-maintained and of high quality, ensuring a secure and enjoyable dive. Roman, our instructor, demonstrated exceptional dedication and expertise. His attention to detail and commitment to safety allowed the whole team to focus on the beauty of the underwater world without any concerns.
Our diving excursion took us to the stunning Bushrangers Bay, where the vibrant marine life and breathtaking scenery made for an unforgettable experience. Roman’s knowledge of the area added immense value to our dives, as he guided us to the best spots and enriched our adventure with fascinating insights.
I would also like to extend my warm regards to the lovely team of three wonderful ladies I had the pleasure of diving with. Their camaraderie and shared enthusiasm truly enhanced the experience.
In conclusion, I highly recommend Dive Center Bondi to anyone looking for an exceptional dive experience. Their commitment to safety, high-quality equipment, and the engagement of their instructors, particularly Roman, sets them apart in the diving community. I am already looking forward to my next dive with them!

We booked the shark dives at Bushrangers Bay.
Raul was our instructor, and he did a great job. He was caring for us and showed us a lot of sea creatures and different kinds of sharks.
The dives were amazing!
Steven accompanied us and gave tips for the beginner divers.
The equipment is high quality and kept us warm.
It was a very special day for my son and me.
Thanks to Raul and Steven and the team from Dive Centre Bondi.

Booked a 2 tank shark dive for $250.
Got a 1 tank dive with weedy dragons + $75 refund.

Unexpected things can happen when diving, so arriving at bushrangers to find the road closed was disappointing. We went to Kurnell for a dive instead which was a little short (42 mins, 130 bar remaining), but it was nice to see some weedy sea dragons. I don't think any of us on the trip were particularly happy about paying $175 for only one dive that was significantly different to what we had booked though.

On another day with DCB you could easily get a 5-star dive, but safe to say that we left feeling underwhelmed and overcharged.
