Dive Saint Helena: Pristine Atlantic Reef Scuba Experience

Plunge into some of the most untouched Atlantic waters on the planet with St. Helena's only dedicated dive operator. Extraordinary underwater visibility, endemic marine life and a complete absence of crowds make this a once-in-a-lifetime dive.

What to expect

Launches depart from Jamestown's compact harbour and reach dive sites within minutes. Underwater, expect 30-metre-plus visibility, dense schools of endemic fish, resident whale sharks (seasonal), sea turtles and dramatic basalt formations draped in soft coral. The team briefs thoroughly and paces the dive to your experience level. A surface interval aboard the rigid inflatable, with views back to the Jamestown cliffscape, is a memory in itself.
