SCUBA HIRE PRICE LIST
To hire scuba equipment, the hirer must be certified with a recognised diving agency. All scuba hire must be booked online before arrival — we do not offer walk-in scuba hire.
Please return all gear by 5pm, unless arranged with our team in advance. Late returns are charged at $20 per hour unless prior arrangements have been made.
Hirers are responsible for lost or damaged equipment. A $500 fee applies for lost or damaged tanks. Unused hire gear is non-refundable.
Goat Island Dive & Snorkel is not responsible for the actions of divers using hired equipment. All divers must follow Goat Island Marine Reserve rules and dive within their training, certification and experience level.
