Dive Club Wellington
Join our dive club, it's FREE!
We want you to keep diving and keep those skills fresh. We aim to get out at least three days a week, for a total of 5 dives. No matter what your experience level is, there will always be a buddy for you!
Wellington has some of the most diverse diving in the country. We have wrecks, reefs, reserves, hunting grounds and no shortage of muck diving. We try to cater as best as we can for everyone's interest.
Our club dives are run from shore so easily accessible and you only need to pay for gear hire.
All you need to do to join us is fill out our Club Diver Form and subscribe to our newsletter at the bottom of our home page. You can also check out what the Club is up to by following our Dive Club Wellington Facebook page.
This year we are running our BIGGEST Club Event ever!
The Descent to Challenger Deep is a collective dive challenge to reach the deepest known point of the Pacific Ocean at 10,935m. Register and then join us for club dives between the 1st of August 2024 and the 1st of August 2025 (our 20th Birthday). Record the depth of each dive on our app and let's see our deep we can go. We will be running special events throughout the year and raising funds for our two chosen charities - I am Hope and the Wellington Volunteer Coastguard through our Givealiitle page.
