Based in Shelly Beach on the KwaZulu-Natal South Coast, Dive in Adventure Tours is a small, woman-owned PADI 5-Star dive centre and tour operator where passion for the ocean meets ethical adventure and deep respect for marine life. Their mission? To share the magic of the Indian Ocean’s Protea Banks, one of the world’s most thrilling shark dive destinations, in a way that protects the creatures and habitats that make it so special.
Here, every dive into the shark-rich waters of Protea Banks, home to tiger sharks, bull (Zambezi) sharks, ragged-tooth sharks, blacktip reef sharks and hammerheads, is more than just adrenaline. It’s an immersive encounter with life in its rawest, most fascinating form, guided by local experts who know these seas like a second home. Adventure with respect is their philosophy: dives are run under strict Marine Protected Area rules, without feeding or disrupting wildlife, focusing instead on observation, understanding and conservation. Groups are kept small, safety is prioritised, with personal GPS tracking and thorough pre-dive briefings, and every experience is designed to be personal, ethical and unforgettable.
Beyond shark dives, the team offers a variety of adventure tours that combine scuba, wildlife and natural exploration, bringing together the ocean’s power and the South African coast’s rich cultural and ecological tapestry. With Dive in Adventure Tours, you don’t just dive; you connect deeply with nature, with the sea, and with stories
