Bonus Seal Dive Included!
Book a PADI Open Water course that runs between 7th June and 31st August, and you'll receive a FREE dive with Australian fur seals, valued at $252. This is the prime time of year to experience these playful creatures in their natural habitat—an unforgettable way to celebrate your certification!
The seal dive takes place at Port Kembla, just a short boat ride from shore, where you'll encounter seals up close as they dart, swirl, and flip around you underwater.
Note: Transport to Port Kembla is not included—you’ll need to arrange your own transport for the seal dive. For full details, see our Seal Dive page.
