Paying it Forward
Since early 1990, we have been SCUBA diving in Southern Africa, it is now time that we share our knowledge and experience with people who wish to learn how to dive, or perhaps want to improve their skills and experience this is our time to pay it forward.
Once SCUBA Skills are mastered and you complete your certification, you can enjoy beautiful dive sites, all over the world.
Good diving techniques and knowledge not only make the whole experience more enjoyable and safe, they also empower you to become competent diver and an advocate for coral reefs and the ocean.
Our Mission
To share, show and teach interested people to become passionate, competent divers, ready to dive in conditions they are trained for and to a standard that sets the bar high. The measure of our success is not the number of divers trained but the quality of our divers, every diver is an ambassador for RAID and Reefs everywhere.
“The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever.”
