A little bit about us
nautidiver is an SDI dive centre offering a wide range of recreational dive courses, boat dives and dive safaris. We also offer equipment rental and airfills.
We are passionate about diving and the marine environment.
We run very small courses with a maximum of 4 students per instructor on any course. Also, we offer one to one training for those of you who need to schedule training around your work and other obligations.
We use some of the best training sites in Ireland to carry out our courses. Like Portroe which is an ideal environment for divers in training with its crystal clear waters.
Once qualified new dive buddies are welcome on any of the dive safaris we run. Some are day trips but we also arrange weekends away and overseas diving.
Many of the weekends away we organise with a number of the commercial dive centres located around the country.
