Go Dive Tasmania

Fantastic experience: Awesome open water course with Nick!

Fantastic experience: Instructors Nick and Aaron were super friendly and helpful! Amazing experience

Fantastic experience: An unforgettable experience! Even the boat ride to the dive site was worth every cent—our driver Aaron made sure we got to see the Tasman Arch along the way. The dive sites were perfectly chosen, allowing us to get up close to the incredible wildlife and nature. As beginner divers, we booked Jane as our dive buddy, and her friendly and professional approach gave us a real sense of security. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Thank you Matt Testoni!! Matt was a fountain of tips and explained everything so well while also being super friendly. We saw soooo many different species as Matt guided us to great spots around the Tas peninsula. Thank you to Aaron for being patient on the boat too a fun weekend and learnt lots!

Fantastic experience: 10/10 advanced open water diving experience. Matt was a really great instructor and made me feel very confident in my diving, making the course really fun and rewarding. He also doesn’t mansplain and explains things really well which made the whole experience so much more enjoyable!! Go dive was a great company to do it with too!!

Fantastic experience: Marianne was a joy to learn from. I was initially really nervous and after my first day of the course she helped me feel excited to learn more. I will recommend this place to anyone looking to do their open water licence

Fantastic experience: We had Matt as a instructor for our Advanced diver and was so stoked with the course. He took us to some epic spots, which were challenging but made us feel so safe and well looked after. Her is super knowledgeable in all things marine science!

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience: lots of fun, well organised and friendly staff. Can’t wait to come back for another course!

Fantastic experience: Hands down the best dive shop in Tassie.

Fantastic experience: Top dive shop in hobart. Prices for rentals are pretty good and the boys always looking after ya. Dive gear is very comparable to online prices which is nice to see, I've even scored gear here that beat online store prices which is why I always go back. Good community dive store, looking after the community. I've been to many dove shops over Australia and this by far is one of the better ones.

Fantastic experience: Abosolute pleasure to do business with! Helped me get some really nice fins. Thanks again!

Fantastic experience: Open water completed with Richard. Absolute legend. Cannot recommend enough completing an open water with go dive. Edit: Just completed the advanced course. Even better. Matt is amazing, knows so much about everything marine life and has a safety first mindset. Deep dive next

Fantastic experience: Nick is the best PADI Open Water Diver instructor you can have! With significant number of dives himself and extensive knowledge in the field he was not only a great teacher answering patiently every question but also showed great emotional intelligence when he dealt with our freak outs throughout the training with patience and care. Jacob and Aaron at the shop couldn’t be more accommodating with my timing as coming from the North West of Tasmania and together with Nick made gear adjustments so that I could have the best experience! Highly recommend this business!

Fantastic experience: I recently did my open water course through GoDive Tasmania. They made the experience so easy and enjoyable with their friendly and efficient customer service. A special shoutout to our instructor, Nick, who did an incredible job coaching us through the process. His patience, knowledge and passion made us all so excited to dive in the future.

Fantastic experience: Just completed my Open water dive certification with Richard and Dom from GoDive can not recommend these guys enough ! Absolutely effortless for these guys to run an amazing, enjoyable and professional experience. So much knowledge gained ! Do yourself a favour and book in today

Fantastic experience: We recently did two days of diving in the Tasman peninsula with Go Dive and really enjoyed the experience. We were hoping to see a particular shark (draughtboard shark) and emailed the dive centre. Aaron’s replies were prompt and very helpful. The diving itself was really well organised: they dive with a rib (quite comfortable) that they drive to near the divesites best suited for the weather (so boat travel time was limited and this gives more flexibility to be able to dive regardless of weather). We saw the shark and a weedy sea dragon as well.

Fantastic experience: Very interesting diving experience with Richard! He is a kind and patient instructor for my ow course! Definitely will do aow again with Godive!

Fantastic experience: Didn’t get a chance to dive with GDT but I used them to buy a dive computer. Aaron was extremely responsive throughout my enquiries and couldn’t have been more helpful. When I visited the store, he and his colleague were so helpful and chatted through dive sites and various other things. As an experienced diver I was impressed with their set-up, their knowledge and professionalism. This is clearly a very good dive centre and I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

Fantastic experience: An amazing experience and a special thanks to Matt for the great coaching and expertise of the area, had an amazing time and will definitely use what I learned in he future.

Fantastic experience: Completed the PADI Open Water Dive Course with my scout group. We all had a great time and learned a heap from our 10/10 instructor Matt Testoni. Thanks heaps Go Dive for all the hired gear.

Fantastic experience: Matt Testoni was incredibly. Made the experience forever memorable and super safe. Thankyou!

Fantastic experience: Matt Testoni was a great instructor for the open water dive course.

Fantastic experience: Thanks Aaron and the team at go dive for getting us in at the most busy Time of the year. We thoroughly enjoyed our open water scuba course. We can't thank our instructor Richard enough for his guidance and reassurance during our course. We much appreciate it! We can't wait to go back!

Fantastic experience: We had an incredible weekend with our instructor Richard for our open water dive course! Richard is extremely knowledgeable and encouraging, he made us all feel super comfortable. I can’t recommend godive tas more. Thanks Richard!!

Fantastic experience: Great instructors and great course. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: The Go Dive team were great in setting me up for this course. Richard our instructor was so helpful during each of our dives learning each skill or safety scenario. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Finished our PADI open water course today and was stoked to have done it with Go dive. Was a lot of fun and well taught, the professionalism and guidance made me feel in very safe hands, and that I was really learning the skills necessary to scuba. Big shout out to our instructor Nic (and Ash!) who not only had great advice and patience, but also knew their zooanthids from their zooids. Strongly recommend, Cheers!

Fantastic experience: The guys who run the shop are awesome. Our instructor, Nick, for the open water course was super friendly, professional, and supportive. And…dolphins!

Fantastic experience: Very nice dive center. The people are super friendly and helpfull. They put a lot of effort in the wishes of the customer. You can rent a dive guide what I would recommand because they know so much about all the animals and dive sites. There is a lodge where you can stay the day bevor your dive or there is also space for motorhomes. If you wan‘t you‘ll get to use their bbq place and toilet… Highly recommand diving with these guys!

Fantastic experience: Double boat dive with dive guide Nick. Amazing time in the water, plenty of interesting sea creatures and anemones and highlight of the day - dive in a giant kelp forest! Nick is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, he really was a great guide. Totally recommend the shop.

Fantastic experience: Completed my open water this weekend, what an amazing experience, the dives especially day 2, was nothing like I could have imagined, both Matt and Nick, we're extremely knowledgeable, and made us all comfortable and enjoyed every second of it, definitely the best course in Tassie

Fantastic experience: Just completed another course with Go Dive and had a really good time. Richard was the instructor and gave myself some confidence to tackle the course and complete it in a fun way. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Shout out to Richard McGuire, and the whole Go Dive Tasmania for such a wonderful under water experience. If you are still thinking about signing up for PADI Open water dive in winter, I should say do it right now cause you won’t get even slightly cold, but you get to see seahorse and sea dragons more clearly.

Positive experience: Good products, prices and service

Fantastic experience: Myself and my partner recently completed the PADI Open Water dive course with Go Dive Tasmania and it was an incredible experience! As a beginner, we had no idea what to expect but we were was excited to try scuba diving. The course was the perfect way to learn all the necessary skills and techniques thoroughly. Our instructor, Pete, was an excellent teacher with a wealth of knowledge and a lot of patience. He made sure we understood every concept and skill before moving on to the next, ensuring that we were comfortable and confident with our abilities. He also made the course fun and enjoyable, which made it easier to learn. During our boat dives, Aaron joined us as the driver, and he was fantastic! He brought a lot of positive energy and was incredibly helpful. His assistance and encouragement gave us the confidence we needed to enjoy our dives and focus on the incredible underwater world we were exploring plus we grabbed a few golf balls from the sea floor as well. Overall, I would highly recommend Go Dive Tasmania for anyone interested in scuba diving. The course was well-organized, informative, and a lot of fun. Pete and Aaron were both excellent instructors who went above and beyond to ensure our safety, comfort, and enjoyment throughout the course. I can't wait to go diving with them again!

Fantastic experience: Just finished my open water dive course, had an absolute great time. Instructors were great with people that were aprohensive about issues during the course, they treated every one with dignity, no one felt left out & their knowledge was way above standard. Everything was explained so when I was underwater I knew exactly what was being conveyed. I cannot recommend this course enough. Just get your friends together, do a course & start diving 6 ⭐️

Fantastic experience: Just finished a open water course and was impressed with the professionalism and experience of the teaching crew. Also great experience getting set up with all my gear, the retail staff were knowledgeable and happy to talk me though the gear options.

Jordan brought so much positive energy and was so helpful especially when I needed help with my gear and getting in the water he made it so easy for me and even put my flippers on!

Fantastic experience: The guys at Go Dive are absolute legends! Had an awesome 2 weekends doing the PADI open waters. Our instructor Maryanne made the experience so much fun and supported us all to get the most out of our Dives. Highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Had an awesome time last weekend with Go Dive and our students on an Open Water Scuba course. Aaron and the crew are friendly and accommodating instructors who really know their stuff, all their equipment we hire is top notch quality stuff and they have extensive local knowledge of all the best dive spots in virtually any weather conditions which they take you to in purpose built dive boat. Tassie is an amazing place to dive, and if you want to access it or do scuba training here you can be confident that Go Dive will look after you and you'll have a great time.

Fantastic experience: Go Dive Hobart were great. Jacob was flexible with my last minute fit out due to travel distances. Peter was a brilliant Dive Instructor, with a wealth of knowledge and experience, and Zach was a great Skipper for our ocean dives. Loved every second of it and excited to book my advanced course when more dates become available. The others on the course alongside me made it that much more enjoyable, and I hope to dive with you again soon!

Fantastic experience: Great experience completing the Open Water course with Go Dive. Matt Testoni was a great instructor and created a perfect learning environment. In the shop, Aaron provided great advice and helped to get me kitted out, thanks heaps for the great service !

Fantastic experience: Excellent service!! From the shop to the course the guys look after you and make you enjoy diving as much as they do! Just completed the open water dive course and I am very happy with the new skills I learnt. The instructor makes you feel comfortable and safe, which helps to build up my confidence doing something completely new for me. I am definitely coming back to do more courses and get my dive gears! Big thanks to Aaron, Richard and Peter.

Fantastic experience: Just completed the open water dive course down at eaglehawk neck and had an amazing experience. Had no idea what to expect and have never attempted scuba diving before, but that has all changed now and can't wait for my next dive. I couldn't possibly recommend this course highly enough, it is suitable for people of all ages and skill levels, and an excellent oppotunity to see some stunning sights below (and above) the water's surface down on the peninsula. Also our instructor Matt was an absolute legend, and passed on his enthusiasm for all things ocean and diving on to us.

Fantastic experience: Amazing crew with new dives everywhere. Some amazing sites. Highly recommend booming with them

Fantastic experience: Completed the Open Water course with Go Dive crew. They have an incredibly supportive team of instructors. Thank you to Richard, Dave and Aaron for making me feel confident diving and having fun along the way. I had some nerves and couldnt find it in myself to complete the 18m dive. Richard and Aaron were very empathetic and with their encouragement (and reshedueling) I was able to complete it another day. I'm now addictive to diving and love seeing Jacob in the shop. He's super friendly and makes hiring gear quick and easy. I Highly recommend doing any course through Go Dive, the crew make the experience all that more amazing.

Fantastic experience: If you are planning to do your dive course look no further, these guys are amazing. From the shop staff to the instructors, amazing. Matt and Pete were awesome, chilled but super knowledgeable and I learned heaps. Thanks for an amazing weekend.

Fantastic experience: There is a wide range of scuba gear collections. The staff is very friendly and professional. He gave me a good suggestion on my wetsuit and scuba diving gear.

Fantastic experience: Been here twice and each time is amazing yet so different. Knowledgeable and friendly crew and they take you to fantastic sites.

Fantastic experience: The passion and wisdom of the crew here is inspiring. Matt T has an approach to diving and teaching that left me feeling confident and comfortable 18m below.

Fantastic experience: Incredible local dive knowledge and extremely competent host (Aaron). Boat staff are also awesome - very well run crew which makes for an awesome experience.

Fantastic experience: Aaron and the team hosted our scuba club for some absolutely epic dives out of Bicheno, Kingston and Eaglehawk neck. Everyone on the trip will take home at least 4 crayfish each. The team were friendly, easygoing and helpful and they customised the dive sites to cater for the type of diving we were looking for. I’ll definitely be back!

Fantastic experience: Great course. Team at godive where helpful from start to finish and made the experience one to remember. Matt Testoni as an instructor was awesome, super inspiring

Fantastic experience: Did the "Open water dive" course a few weeks back, was waiting a bit to see how the after service was before leaving a review. Experience wise I'd done some test dives overseas and was very hesitant at the time with doing a diving course and was very unsure of which company to go with. I feel like I met almost everyone at GoDive, in the shop and out in the field and on the phone. Staff in every scenario were super friendly and supportive. I fully recommend this Team. Since doing my course I've visited the store a number of times and experienced over and beyond the normal customer service. Thanks for helping me get certificate GoDive and answering my "newbie" questions.

Fantastic experience: I have just completed a PADI Open Water course, and could not recommend Aaron and the Go Dive team enough. The course was fantastic from start to finish. All instructors and staff were professional, knowledgeable and supportive. If you are thinking about doing a dive course, then look no further.

Fantastic experience: Go dive Tasmania are great. We did our Open Water Dive course with Aaron and Richard and have been back to hire gear from them too. They are professional and very knowledgeable of diving and the area. In the shop, Jacob will happily sort you out with gear as well as give tips and advice. If you’re diving in Tasmania, these are the guys to go through!

Fantastic experience: Recently did my padi open water with go dive Hobart. Highly recommend, there are other dive shops in Hobart that can do a similar course for cheaper. The amount of time and effort that go dive put into me as an individual is extremely good value for money. I got Matt and Richard as instructors the knowledge and experience they have, made it easy for me to get out of my comfort zone. Over the three day course. I did not only learn a great deal about scuba diving. i Also learnt a lot about the ocean. Really look forward to continuing my diving with go dive Hobart.

Fantastic experience: Did the PADI course. The guys at Go Dive are legends and know their stuff making the learning experience heaps of fun. Despite it being a little chilly weather wise the kit was all great keeping you warm enough to appreciate the beauty of the world 18m under water.

Fantastic experience: I just completed my PADI Open Water dive certification with Go Dive and had an amazing experience! All of the instructors were awesome, took time to make sure everyone was comfortable and didn’t hesitate to assist when anyone needed a little extra help or encouragement. Thanks so much Richard, Aaron, Matt, Peter and the rest of the amazing team at Go Dive for the best introduction to diving, can’t wait to get back in the water!!

Fantastic experience: Maybe the best place in Hobart to get your open water certification; great team, instructors were really patient and kind with us, great location, and above all we enjoyed our first diving experience thanks to them. We are going to take the next certification with them Thanks guys for doing a terrific job.

Fantastic experience: I cannot thank the Go Dive team enough for the awesome experience last weekend. My partner was super keen to do the PADI open water course and I had never in my wildest dreams thought I'd have the courage to ever attempt scuba diving. I get anxious in small spaces and hate feeling stuck or out of control. My first breaths underwater in the initial pool dive freaked me out! Rest assured Pete was right there assisting and providing encouragement until I was comfortable with it all. Once we got to the second weekend I was spooked again haha! Our instructor Aaron was fun, energetic and super awesome at providing professional guidance and support especially to those that were requiring some extra help. I not only got to become comfortable with being underwater for almost 40 minutes, I passed the course AND I also got to see a Weedy Sea Dragon. I loved everything about it and highly recommend to anyone and everyone!!!

Fantastic experience: i completed the padi open water dive course with the team from Go Dive Tasmania last weekend. i cant speak highly enough about the team from the service in store, after sale service and the course its self. having only dived a couple of times on a compressor and snorkelling previously the instructors made the transition to scuba easy with a crazy amount of knowledge and making it fun and relaxing all while running a very professional and safe course. I highly recommend going to see the team at Go dive.

Fantastic experience: Open water course: The team at Go Dive were brilliant from start to finish. From walking in the store to loan gear to signing off the final paperwork upon completion, everything was made crystal clear, no matter how long it took to understand. Every member of the team that we met was helpful, friendly and professional. If you want to learn to dive properly in some amazing locations, Go Dive Tasmania is the one.

Fantastic experience: Everytime I walk in Go Dive Tasmania shop I am warmly welcomed by either Aaron, Angus, Bridget or Jacob. They always take the time to answer all of my questions and share their passion for diving by suggesting the best dive sites wherever I plan to go. The PADI Open Water course they offered was run seamlessly and the instructor Richard made me feel very comfortable even when I was struggling to complete underwater skills. The team was proactive by checking in on the students a week before the course start to make sure the online learning was completed and we had the right gear. The team members at Go Dive Tasmania go out of their way to enhance your diving experience and are always friendly and smiling.

Fantastic experience: I just did my open water training with Go Dive. Aaron and his team are truly professional, incredibly knowledgeable and supportive instructors, and provide a first class experience. If your thinking about getting certified, want to do a dive charter or need advice on new dive gear, then look no further. I really can not recommend these guys enough

Fantastic experience: We had a lovely time. Matt and Bridget were wonderful teachers. Very calm and trustworthy and there was a lot of confidence in them. They were also obviously very smart and knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience: lovely people. i keep breaking my dive knife strap and i keep getting a new one and they gave me one for free

Fantastic experience: Had an absolutely wonderful experience with Go Dive Tasmania. Nice service with passionate instructors.

Fantastic experience: great shop with friendly and knowledgeable staff

Fantastic experience: Visited this shop on 15/07/21. The gentlemen working there was incredibly helpful. Best place for gear in Hobart. Staff are friendly and helpfully answer all questions. Couldn't be more satisfied. Anyone looking for dive gear should go here first. They'll look after you.

Fantastic experience: Go dive Tasmania are great. We did our Open Water Dive course with Aaron and Richard and have been back to hire gear from them too. They are professional and very knowledgeable of diving and the area. In the shop, Jacob will happily sort you out with gear as well as give tips and advice. If you’re diving in Tasmania, these are the guys to go through!

Fantastic experience: Just completed an open water dive course at Go Dive with my 13 year old son. Awesome staff and trainers. Professional and super safety focused. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Go Dive team THANKS SO MUCH for everything!!! It was a wonderful experience. No doubt these guys are the best people to get the 'Open water diver course'.

Fantastic experience: I did my open water scuba course through Go Dive Tasmania and it was such an amazing experience! The instructors were all lovely and very professional and made the whole weekend heaps of fun. When in store, the advice given is exceptional and you know they want you to get the best bang for your buck with great recommendations based on quality and functionality rather than directing you to the most expensive products. Hiring gear is super easy and painless, and I love going in store for a chat about the best dive locations! Lovely people, great service!

Fantastic experience: Just finished an open water diving course with these guys and it was beyond incredible. Aaron was such a wonderful instructor. He is incredibly kind, patient and gave as all so much confidence in ourselves. His passion for what he does really shows and I've truly finished this course feeling inspired, motivated and confident underwater. Can't wait to continue my diving journey and come back to do my advanced! Thank you Aaron you legend!!!!! Steph ☺️

Fantastic experience: I'd always been afraid of scuba diving and wanted to overcome that so I could fully enjoy the amazing coastline Tasmania has to offer. Aaron, Pete and Jacob at Go Dive couldn't have made me feel more comfortable and capable of completing the Open Water course. So much so I may go back for Advanced Open Water! The crew are knowledgeable, friendly, chilled and highly experienced. A big thanks to the boys for a great weekend , and special thanks to Pete for being the sea dragon whisperer!

Fantastic experience: I recently completed my Deep diver certification with Go Dive Hobart. I can not fault the quality of service and the dedication they have to make sure everyone is safe and having a great time. The accommodation lodge is comfy. The boats are well maintained and the Instructors were excellent and know the area well I would not hesitate to recommend diving with Godive Hobart.

Fantastic experience: Best bunch of people who are super friendly and helpful! Friends and i did a three day open water course and we couldn't have asked for a better instructor to do our open water with, thanks Aaron. Would definitely recommend doing a course here if you are thinking about it, you'll have heaps of fun :)
