Who we are
Welcome to Dive Bermuda Tech! Running right out of Somerset Bridge, with quick access to the deep Atlantic drop offs, offering the opportunity to explore the deeper and darker side of the Bermuda Triangle. As Bermuda’s first Technical Diving School, we frequent the pristine reefs and jaw dropping wrecks of Bermuda which have very rarely been explored!
Whether you wish to dip your toe into the realm of technical diving with Sidemount, Deep or Nitrox courses; or are keen to put your certifications to use with Guided Tech Dives, you need look no further. We pride ourselves on providing a truly tailor made experience that allows you to achieve whatever your technical diving goals may be. Top notch TDI Instructors & guides combined with our 5-star service, custom dive boat and training facility will surely leave you wanting more!
What we do
Here at Dive Bermuda Tech we offer a variety of TDI/SDI courses ranging from tech prerequisites such as Sidemount, Deep Diver & Nitrox Diver to more adventurous courses such as TDI Advanced Nitrox & Decompression Procedures.
Regardless of where you are in your Diving Journey, every course starts with a consultation with your Instructor where we aim to understand what your personal diving goals are. This allows us to develop a detailed, specialized and personal program for you and will definitely put you on the right track towards safely and efficiently achieving your diving dreams!
For our guests with existing Technical Diving certifications, we offer guided dives of our stunning dive sites. Prior to diving with us, we will discuss your diving interests so that we can curate a diving trip for you to dive sites that are sure to leave you yearning for more! Whether it be encountering pelagic life, exploring our stunning wrecks & reefs, cleaning up the deep lionfish population or all of the above; we certainly have the dive sites for you! An added bonus is that the majority of these sites have rarely ever been explored on SCUBA before, thus giving you a once in a lifetime experience.
The gear we dive in
As part of our 5-star mantra, we feel that providing you with high quality diving equipment for your exploration exploits is absolutely essential.
Here at Dive Bermuda Tech we can offer our top of the line XDeep Sidemount Harnesses and Apeks first & second stage regulators.
It goes without saying that with most rental dive equipment, there is almost always a major compromise whether it be comfort or functionality.
The customizability and ingenuity behind the award winning XDeep Stealth 2.0 sidemount system will allow maximum comfort while you feel like you're diving in your own personal BCD. This combined with the use of high performance Apeks DS4/XTX50 Sidemount regulators will allow for effortless breathing and allow you to focus on nothing but the dive, even at the most demanding depths. Both of these systems are the go to for even the most adventurous explorers due to their unmatched performance, comfort and reliability.
All divers hate when equipment issues cause an unpleasant dive and we go the extra mile to ensure that your equipment never lets you down.

“Marlee was a gem of a guide. Super chill vibe, amazing connection with the sea and its’ inhabitants. She was well versed and confident in all aspects of our experience. Her pace and care were 10/10. We couldn’t recommend this trip or guide more!”
