Just north of Sydney Harbour you will find the long sweeping beach at Manly. Pro Dive Manly is the premier dive centre operating at this outstanding location in Australia.

The ability to dive off the shore or from one of Pro Dives boats in Manly means you have both options covered. Pro Dive Manly is able to take you diving in some of Sydney's best dive sites on the Pro Dive boat Sea life V. Sea life V is the fastest boat in Sydney.

Manly is everything Australian. It has culture to see, a lively beach resort and excellent accommodation, with restaurants, cafes and pubs. You will find that it has long sandy beaches, small coves , inlets, swaying Norfolk Pines and festivals. You will also find the National Trust Oceanfront Promenade which was listed for the introduction of daylight swimming, surf lifesaving and board riding into Australian culture.

The dive centre is 50 meters away from the Sydney's premier Beach Manly. 15 min from the Manly wharf so we have easy access from the city.
