Cave Diving
Cave Diving is something I’ve never done, but our mate Bruce Konefe, a technical diving pioneer in this part of the world loves it. ne’s able to arrange logistics, and teach to the highest ( or lowest ) levels.
I’m told it goes hand in hand with wreck diving, I’m going to give it a try soon, the best caves are right on our doorstep, it seems silly not too.

Cavern/ Cave courses
Level Two Cavern course- A course designed with no decompression and allows you to dive into a cavern zone carrying only a single tank and RBS. You will do penetration and still stay in the daylight zone. Skills taught are based around your safety such as out of air drills, line laying. This can all be done in a period of just only four days.
Level Three Cave course – IF you thought going into that cavern was exciting, how about being able to do full penetration. Double tanks, line laying, decompression diving, where does all this training end??? You are almost there.
Level Four Full Cave course- During the full cave course you will be using full technical equipment. While on the dive you will learn how to deal with smaller restrictions and also how to do Jumps and gaps. This course will take you to the ultimate level.
Level Five Cave Course - Taking things to the extreme. Learn to how to dive deep caves safely utilizing the Optimum mixes of oxygen and helium. The last thing you want to be is narked in a over head area. We will show you how to get rid of the narcosis problems and also the oxygen problems. A clear head is definetly needed in a cave.
Stage diving specialty course - If you are really into major penetration, we can teach you how to extend these limits. To date Divers have penetrated over 6000 meters into caves. We won’t take you quite that far in but we can teach you the basic skills to get you heading in the right direction. After we show you the proper techniques the rest is left up to you.
Side Mount Diving - If you are not claustrophic and tight spots do not bother you then you should try side mount diving. We will show you the proper equipment configurations used to mount your tanks on each side with out using tanks on your back. The tanks are easy to put on and to take off so you can squeeze threw the small passage ways.
(Cave courses can be taught on open circuit or rebreather. Student has to be qualified with the unit and equivalent level)
