Certified Divers
Whether you hold a PADI, BSAC, NAUI, SSI, TDI, CMAS or any other diving certification you are more than welcome to join us on our guided dives. Our dive center has a prime position on the smallest drawbridge at Somerset, Bermuda and offers access to a variety of both wreck and reef dive sites, most of which are within a 35-minute boat journey.
For our certified divers, we offer a 2 tank dive every morning. The usual schedule for our morning dives is that the first dive is a wreck dive and the second dive is a reef dive so you can see the diversity within the Bermudian waters. Check-in time for our 2 tank dive trip is dependent upon time of year, so when you book online we will provide you with your specific check in time.
Each afternoon we offer a 1 tank dive to a shallow reef which is an option for the inexperienced divers or for those looking to make the most out of their bottom times.
For our technical divers we will be offering access to exclusive sites and special trips for those individuals that are really looking to dive into the mysterious depths of the Bermuda Triangle! Check out our Tech Courses here.
For certified divers, who want to continue their education we offer a whole host of specialty courses to help progress you as a diver and work towards the Master Scuba Diver rating. Details of our courses we offer can be found here.
“Dive Bermuda is a great place for scuba diving and snorkeling. I’ve gone scuba diving with them many times when I’ve come to Bermuda on a cruise vacation. The artificial reefs are always fun and the reef dives are beautiful. There are so many colorful fish. I went diving with Cam and he shot a Lion Fish with his harpoon with remarkable accuracy. Cam is super nice, doesn’t like talking bad about anyone, and is strives to make his dives safe and enjoyable. Britney is also super accommodating, resourceful, and friendly. I showed up with my 77-year-old father hoping he could snorkel, while I went diving and she was more than willing to make that happen. Cam and Britney are lots of fun to be around and make the experience that much more enjoyable. Their love for marine life and nature is only surpassed by their love for each other. I wish them all the best on their impending nuptials.”

“The shop and the staff were ABSOLUTELY amazing! Not only did they give me and my partner (J & J) an amazing diving experience but they went out of their way to make us feel comfortable! Both locations were very accommodating and they even took us in last minute on the first and last day of our cruise. Very professional and informative and they made us feel at home. We would definitely go through them again! Also, Ronnie our boat captain and his lovely wife were most charitable. Our last day they offered us a ride back to our cruise ship to ensure we would not be late for our deadline to get back aboard the ship. I would highly recommend this shop, hands down as one of the best.”
Scuba Refresher
If you have had a break from diving for a few years or just want to feel more confident in the water then our scuba refresher program will help you to feel comfortable in the water again. Your safety and comfortability is paramount to us, if you have not dived in more than two years and have less than 50 dives we require you to take a Scuba Refresher.
The scuba refresher program is run every afternoon and includes a small skills session in the shallow water as well as a re-acquaintance with the setup of the equipment. After completing the skills, you will join the boat for the afternoon dive to a shallow reef. Check-in time 12:45 pm returning around 4.30 pm (9:30 am - 3.30 pm,
October 16th- November 20th).
PADI recommends taking part in a scuba refresher program if you haven’t been diving for about 18 months, but the program is available to any certified divers looking to feel comfortable again or for inexperienced divers looking to check out the local conditions before diving.

“I booked this one tank dive to accommodate my cruise travel. The booking was extremely easy. Confirmations and waivers are sent ahead of time to make the day of your dive super relaxed.
I am a new diver and have only completed 5 dives prior to my dive with Dive Bermuda. I was made to feel very welcome, and I was immediately at ease with the staff.
I dove with Marty and his knowledge and patience were absolutely incredible! We discussed expectations and potential (marine) hazards prior to getting in the water. He made sure we were on the same page prior to the dive. While on the dive he was excellent at navigating the reef and I had an absolutely incredible dive!
The whole experience was just fantastic and will definitely book a two tank dive with them the next time I’m in Bermuda! So grateful to Dive Bermuda!”
Discover Scuba Diving
The PADI Discover Scuba Diving course gives non-certified divers the option to experience just what the underwater world has to offer without the commitment of a full course or to try diving before advancing to the Open Water Course.
Every afternoon you can join us in the bay for a shallow water session where we will teach you some basic principles of diving after which you will join the dive boat for its departure to a shallow reef site off the South Shore of Bermuda. Check-in time 12:45pm returning around 4.30 pm.
This program is our most popular after the Open Water Course- this allows you to experience the underwater world under the direct supervision of a experienced Instructor. Your maximum depth will be 40 feet/ 12 meters, your time underwater is usually between 45 to 55 minutes. Of course this depends on the diver!
Please be aware you must be medically fit to dive and be able to swim comfortably in the ocean.
