Come and dive the beautiful Poor Knights Islands. Described as one of the top ten dive sites in the world by Jacques Cousteau, this destination should be high on any divers bucket list!
With an abundance of dive sites, the Poor Knights Islands are suitable for all levels of certified divers. Many of the subtropical fish living in the marine reserve are found nowhere else in New Zealand. They include subtropical species such as spotted black groper, mosaic moray and Lord Howe coral fish. The fish are known for their friendliness and make visiting the marine reserve a very memorable experience.

Great trip on a nice dive boat. Very professional and well run. About 1 hour from leaving the marina to jumping in and getting wet.

My favourite part of this experience was everything, from the time we had hopped off the bus to the boarding of the boat and the journey out to our destination. The Captain and his awesome crew were absolutely on the ball with being helpful, knowledgeable,caring and so helpful. I would recommend this experience to my own family and friends as this is a trip that is worth doing. Thank you for giving our school (QRC) an awesome, fun and thrilling day.

Petit groupe hors saison touristique ( 6 personnes )
Très très sympa
Eau à 18 degrés , près de l’arche ( les noms des sites , désolée! ) dans une réserve marine
Enfin nous trouvions un club pour plonger pas facile, Hors saison
Le matériel fourni était parfait
J’avais juste mon ordi
Nous avons eu de la chance sur un site
C’etait Des milliers de poissons bleus qui étaient la ( deux jours avant ils n’y étaient pas d’apres Le centre ... ! Pour nous faire encore plus apprécier ? )
J’ai vu un spécimen blanc et jaune avec des collerettes tout autour pour avancer., assez petit si vous connaissez faites moi signe ! Ce n’etait Pas un poisson.. il faut que je cherche ce que c’est , personne ne voyait....
nous sommes passés sous l’arche
Nous sommes rentrés sous l’autre petite cavité - photo - intérieur vert et blanc -
En tout cas nous avons beaucoup aimé
Je vous recommande
Et nous avons eu droit en prime à un exercice d’helitreuillage , entraînement mais pas pour nous !!! Quand même
Seul bémol : le prix des plongées .... environ 100 euros avec le matériel fourni
On a doublement apprécié
C’est Pas le prix des Canaries!!!!!
