Sundive Byron Bay Dive Travel and Expeditions

Welcome!

For our dive travel, we carefully select only the most exciting dive destinations and pick the best time of the year to go, so you can lean back and let us do the research, planning and organizing for you. 

We also understand that a great dive holiday needs more than just sensational diving. After all, you will only spend a few hours under water everyday, so it is important that the rest of your trip is just as enjoyable. Therefore, we choose only quality accommodation and professional dive operators and aim to offer destinations that also allow you to experience life in exotic countries and have some fun while on the surface.

Rodney Fox Great White Shark Expeditions June/July 2012 

This is probably the single most exciting trip a diver can do... Cage diving with Great White Sharks is an experience like no other. No photo or video can really capture what you experience in that cage. The sheer size of these sharks is unbelievable. You will remember the moment you saw your first 5 meter shark swimming towards you for the rest of your life. 

Due to the amazing reports from our shark diving team in 2010 and 2011, Sundive are now running 2 Rodney Fox Great White Shark cage dive trips next in 2012.

The exact dates are to be confirmed but will be in late June/early July of 2012. Both trips will be 4day/3night live-aboards. 

Trip Cost is $2470 ex-Port Lincoln. 

This is the ONLY Great White trip in the world that has a bottom cage in which you can dive in! There is no where else anywhere that allows certified divers to sit in a cage at 20m to photograph the Great Whites. 

Go to https://www.rodneyfox.com.​au/ for more information. 

At present we have 17 spots spoken for with only 7 spots remaining.
Secure your spot by sending us a message. 
Deposits will not be required until November.

Tours will be led by John Natoli and Giac will be out on one of the two trips also! 

Remember also that you can WIN a trip on this live-aboard by entering the 2012 Sundive Photo Comp...there are two of these up for grabs!

Solomon Islands October/November 2012 - Uepi Island

Join Paul and Sue Byrne on our 2012 Uepi Expedition. 

A 60-minute domestic flight from Honiara takes you to Seghe airport, originally a WW2 fighter strip. A further 12km motorised canoe ride through the beautiful Marovo Lagoon transfers you to the resort.

Uepi has magnificent reef diving. Dive sites vary from coral gardens with magnificent drop-offs, ledges and gutters featuring an enormous diversity of reef fish. Turtles, mantas and eagle rays are fairly common sights, as well as the (friendly) Uepi hammerheads. 

Many of Uepi's dives are conveniently located within a 5 to 10 minute boat ride from the resort. Uepi also has some wreck diving. There are three wrecks lying in Wickham Harbour, all are Japanese freighters sunk by the US during World War 2. All are upright, relatively intact and display varying degrees of artefacts and marine life. All wreck dives are excursion dives and they are approximately one hour from Uepi by boat.

Uepi Island sits on the meeting place of several major currents, making it an excellent place for both drift dives and stationary dives, allowing you to watch the activity of the reef play out before you

When diving in Uepi, it's common for divers to stay in the water for an hour or so on each dive because the top 5-10 metres have endless species to discover, allowing a diver to get maximum value from each dive. Rarely will you view such high concentrations of fish, sponges and corals in such a diverse environment, ranging from coral gardens to vertical drop-offs into 2000 metres of ocean, most within the confines of a three kilometre reef. Water clarity is usually very good and water temperature is about 28−30 °C.
