Beginner Scuba Diving Experience in Simonstown.

Had an excellent 1st dive with Kobus and everyone was great! Conditions were good and I got to see a bunch of cool creatures

My husband and I did the discovery dive in Simon’s Town. It was a great experience and route. We got to see a ship wreck, sleeping sharks, octopus, lots of star fish and two small breeds of sharks (pajama and shy sharks). Kobus was extremely easy to work with, very communicative, and made the dive easy. He made sure we were well informed of how to use the gear and checked on us often to make sure we were good during the dive. Would absolutely recommend this adventure to anyone interested in diving. And hope to dive again with Kobus in the future.

We were contacted by Kobus a few days before to confirm details and sizes of gear. Arrived at dive centre and from the get go had full assurance that all would be good. Kobus talked us through all of our kit and once sorted we drove less that 5 mins to the beach and the drive started. Before entering the water Kobus told us roughly the plan of the dive and what we would/could/should see. I cannot recommend this dive centre and Kobus enough as after a bad experience with a different dive centre I have now had my faith restored.

Unforgettable Scuba Adventure with Dive Team Cape Town Rating: 5/5 stars My two sons (ages 13 and 11) and I had an incredible scuba diving experience with Dive Team Cape Town, booked through Viator. I hold a PADI Open Water certification, but my boys don’t yet have theirs. This dive stood out as a memorable family adventure. It was their second dive ever, following their first in the Maldives. Dive master Kobus made it an exceptional follow-up! The highlight was encountering a massive short-tailed stingray, an awe-inspiring moment that left us all amazed underwater. Cape Town’s marine life is truly unique, and Kobus ensured we experienced it fully. He also captured amazing GoPro footage of our dive, perfectly recording the stingray and other highlights. After the trip, he promptly sent us the video links via WhatsApp, a fantastic bonus that let us relive the experience! I was especially impressed by how well the instructors managed my younger son. About seven minutes into the dive, my 11-year-old felt uncomfortable in the cold water and wanted to stop. I was ready to return with him, but Kobus swiftly arranged for the assistant instructor to stay back, calmly reassuring him. This allowed me to continue diving with my older son. That care and flexibility turned a potential letdown into a win for everyone. My 11-year-old felt supported, and I didn’t have to cut my dive short or end my 13-year-old’s adventure early. The entire experience was seamless, from booking through Viator to Korbus communicating clearly and promptly via WhatsApp beforehand. The Dive Team was professional, friendly, and passionate about their work. They kept us feeling safe and excited the whole time, which is crucial for new divers like my boys. If you’re thinking about scuba diving in Cape Town, I highly recommend Dive Team, especially with Kobus leading the way! They handled everything with skill and warmth, and the GoPro footage was the perfect touch. We’ll definitely return for more underwater adventures with them. Thank you for an unforgettable day!

This was my first time doing anything like scuba diving so I was a bit nervous and didn't know what to expect. Kobus was a fantastic instructor and put you at ease. The location was also brilliant for seeing marine life and I'd 100% do it again!

Was an excellent experience, with a professional and friendly instructor. A great way to have a new experience and see the marine life from a different perspective.

very nice, especially when you dive for the first time. You feel very safe and cool guide. The experience is goof value

Korbus and Riaan were highly knowledgeable and fun Instructors, had an absolute blast. I was a little scared at first but they filled me with confidence and it turned into one of the best experiences of my life

I enjoyed the whole experience from start to finish and would recommend everyone to do it if they get the opportunity.

My wife and I did the discover scuba dive experience with Kobus in Long beach in Simon’s Town. He made us feel at ease with the gear and what we were doing, we went 6 meters deep and practised the basic skills needed for this experience. He was very patient with us as it is really really hard work to deal with to inexperience people under water and he did it the best i could imagine. I will definitively recomment him to any scuba divers or anybody who wants to try the experience coming to Cape Town! Thank you so much!
