Paihia Dive

Great Experience with a great team. The Dive on the Rainbow Warrior was super fun, from launching from the beach to the path taken underwater to admire the wreck. Would visit again for sure. I recommend you do as well. The photos are Craig’s. Not only did he lead the team and the dives but also took and share photos. He is the best.

I highly recommend Craig & the team at Paihia Dive. While I’ve been diving sporadically for years I’m always nervous on my first dive when I haven’t dived for a while but the team made me feel safe & looked after. …

Just had two amazing days diving with Paihia Dive! The Rainbow Warrior wreck, Canterbury wreck and two reef dives were all stunning. Incredible marine life, friendly crew, short boat rides, and a great lunch spot on the Rainbow Warrior trip. My first time in cold water with the 7mm wetsuit, I wasn’t as fluid as I usually am, still, thanks to the supportive team and the magical underwater world, I had a really enjoyable time. Craig was awesome, really professional and funny, he created a great vibe and made sure divers of all skill levels had a wonderful experience. As if being a skilled skipper and instructor wasn’t enough, he’s also a passionate and talented photographer who generously shared all his photos with us! Having those beautiful memories to look back on was such a fantastic surprise. I haven’t even gone through them all yet, just couldn’t wait to write this review. It's worth mentioning that I booked ahead, and all email communication was prompt and patient, they were super helpful. Would love to come back someday to explore the wrecks a bit more :)
