Your home away from home

Blue Ocean Dive Resort is the premier dive operator on Aliwal Shoal
you are assured of only the best service.

We love what we do, we have as much fun as you do, that is why you will have the time of your life.

Because of the amount of accommodation we have available, we do not charge a single supplement. This means you are not penalized for traveling alone!

Our facilities allow us to accommodate large groups of up to 24 (we have 3 boats, 8 per boat, but can hire a fourth if needed for group of 32) and our Dive Lodge can accommodate up to 54.

Set on beautiful grounds with magnificent views of the Indian Ocean and Umkomaas Golf Course, we are the only operator with Hotel accommodation, fully licensed sea view deck Restaurant and Bar, and Dive Centre.

All conveniently located on the same premises. Built in 1934, this grand old hotel building is a colonial styled icon of Umkomaas and the Kwazulu-Natal, South Coast. As always, we focus on comfort, convenience, and value to make your getaway as pleasurable as possible.

From the moment we pick you up at the airport until we drop you off again, we want this to be your happy place. A home away from home where you can escape the city, let your hair down and hop on a few dives.
