You can't dive if you are pregnant or if you are flying within 24 hours after your dive.
Night Dive at Julian Rocks - Wednesday 5.30pm
SORRY - THIS DIVE IS NOW FULLY BOOKED - A very rare and special treat. Night dives are something not often organised in Byron Bay so make sure you don't miss out on this opportunity to check out Byron underwater at night. For people booked into the shootout competition, you are allowed to submit photos from this dive as well. Please note - BYO torch - no torch hire available.
SHARKWATER Australian Premiere - Saturday 7pm Byron Cinemas
The Byron Underwater Festival will be the first place in Australia to show the new and amazing shark documentary Sharkwater ! A must see film for anyone that loves the ocean. A film that already won dozens of awards at international film festivals. Sharkwater will be screened as a fundraiser for our local seabird & turtle rescue organisation (Australian Seabird Resuce) on Saturday 3 May at Byron Cinemas - the biggest screen we have in Byron Bay!
Snorkel the Tassie II - 10 am May 1
If conditions allow, we will offer a guided snorkel to the wreck of the Tassie II, only a short distance from the main beach. The wreck is very shallow so on a good day it is a very good snorkel and home to shovelnose rays, wobbegong sharks, big schools of fish and sometimes even turtles. Price includes guide and all hire gear.
