Our boats

Dive! Tutukaka has the largest dedicated dive charter fleet in New Zealand, available for day trips and private charter. Designed for diving, our vessels are licensed and fitted with safety and oxygen equipment. With five boats to choose from, we can cater for groups from ten to 26 divers.

All our boats have a galley with unlimited complimentary tea, coffee, milo and soup. We’ve got hot showers, marine toilets, plenty of seats and ample dry stowage, plus fresh water and rinse facilities for gear and cameras.

The Dive! vessels are all covered in and equipped with Marine and Diving First Aid Kits and oxygen. Tutukaka to the Poor Knights is a 23 km open ocean trip.
