Dive Operators down south
Submitted by Kelvin8r on Sun, 2009-12-27 18:05
Gday Guys,
I've got a mate coming down and he wants to do some underwater photography of the HMAS Swan wreck and the sea dragons in Geographe Bay?
Does anyone know of some of the better dive operators who do this type of thing?
Cheers,
Sheldon

Noice
Cept that it is only party me,
Honestly Mick (deco1100) and Drew (harliquin) are the two admins that really run the site....I just call myself an admin :):)
I would not go past Dive Shed..
Call Scott boy and tell em you were told by Ray that he was the only place to go dive the swan with.
Scotty will like that.

The tip is usually not to
The tip is usually not to use cape dive, never heard a good report and seen a few unpleasant ones. I dived the swan with dive shed busso and it was a good dive.

I dived the swan on the 14th
I dived the swan on the 14th this month with Cape dive. I thought they were pretty good. Did two dives. Had great weather and clarity was around 20m. They provided lunch which was cold meat sandwiches and salad. Definitly dive with them again if i want to do the swan. I liked their boat setup too.
Have only dived with the dive shed once at the busso jetty. Not bad either, but a longer boat ride from port geo to the swan. Cape dive goes from quidalup.
Whichever you go the swan is a cool and easy dive. Hope you get into it.

Boat size
The shed now have a massive boat that gets to the swan in little time at all.
Much better then the RIB I was in from cape.

hmm
Glad this post came about :), heading down next week to dunsborough. we're goin to dive the swan while were down there and was thinking of using cape dive, used dive shed last time on the swan and jetty with no complaints, skipper was a top guy very casual and easy going. Might be worth the extra drive to dive shed in busso.
