Dive the Mikhail Lermontov Wreck in the Marlborough Sounds - 2 Day Tour!

At the top of the South Island, the beautiful Marlborough Sounds have an amazing cool water marine environment to explore. It's also the final resting place for the Mikhail Lermontov, the largest diveable cruise-ship wreck in the world. Based at the very cosy and secluded Lermontov Lodge in Port Gore, only 5 minutes by boat to the Mikhail Lermontov, you will have superb access to this world class wreck dive and the untouched reefs of Port Gore.

Marlborough Sounds Dive Tour - Full Day

A day to remember in the most stunning outer reaches of the Marlborough Sounds. Sites visited on this tour can include the historical wrecks of Cape Jackson, Waihi Point Reef, Long Island Marine Reserve, or Wellington Bay. All these dives are shallow dives reaching a depth of 18 metres (60 feet) maximum with most of the diving conducted around 10 metres (33 feet).

Dive Milford Sound - Full Day

Fiordland contains a completely unique diving experience in New Zealand, where the thick layer of peaty brown freshwater floating on top of the denser seawater in the fiords creates pseudo-deepwater ecosystems not far from the surface. For example, black coral, which normally grows at a depth of 200 metres or more, can be found as shallow as 10 metres here. Milford Sound, the most accessible fiord, has to be one of the most spectacular and memorable diving locations in the world.
