I did both my Open Water- and Advanced Open Water Diver certification through Just Africa Scuba. They are very well organized, provide excellent service and the dive gear is in mint condition. They made me feel at ease and answered all my questions. Both the courses were done at the pace I felt comfortable with. Each dive excursion was a treat and one for the books! The instructor had my interest at heart the whole time, ensuring that all the skills were mastered, ensuring that I am "okay" at all times, pointing out sea life and making sure that the dive is a lot of fun. What more can a novice ask for. Just Africa Scuba Dive Centre will be seeing me on a regular basis, as I will most definitely be doing my fun dives and future courses with them.

Had a fantastic time on 6 shore dives looking at small wildlife. I'm a very experienced great lakes diver who grew up in Cape Town, left, and haven't been back since mid 80s. Was looking to just enjoy myself, and did. Three sets of two shore dives where Just Africa: drove me to divesites from Gordon's Bay; showed me round sites, pointing out stuff I might miss; fed me between dives; helped me by putting gear in the water (old guy - don't like carrying heavy stuff on my back); chatted about local diving; and generally helped me enjoy myself. Great pleasure plodding around looking at the very rich local ecosystem doing its thing. Spotted: octopus, crayfish, multiple chaetodon (in False Bay?!?), gurnard (which flashed it's pectoral fins about 190 meters out of its depth), multiple nudibranch species, v. large abalone (sadly rare), urchins, anemones, klipvissies, multiple sea hares, strawberry anemones, other anemones, alikreukel, numerous blennies, juvenile roman, shysharks, pajama sharks, translucent shrimp, assorted tubeworms, cormorant chasing fish, etc. etc. Recommend without reservations to all looking for fun underwater. Astonished by how cheap the whole thing was, but I live in dollars.

Just Africa scuba is the epitome of a dive centre. They accommodated my, very demanding, schedule and got me from an advanced diver to a dive master, with Four specialties, within two months. The expertise combined with an actual passion that the crew have, exceeds any other centre I have dove with. Just Africa scuba went over and above what they were required or expected on the daily, including and not limited to a fully stocked Red Bull fridge and an eagerness to match. I can’t wait to go back to Gordon’s bay for this under the radar gem of a dive centre and add to the 40+ dives i have already done with them!! If it wasn’t clear enough, a very high recommendation goes out to Just africa scuba!!

I reached out to Just Africa Scuba very spontaneously via WhatsApp to join them for a dive next morning. They got back to me very quickly and Mari was of great help figuring out the details as well as the gear on the phone. She nailed everything and I was very happy to have her as my dive guide/buddy during the dive. Thanks again Mari :)
If you are in the CapeTown area and interested in diving, reach out to them, I can highly recommend it. I will certainly do so when I am back in Capetown!

I acquired my Open Water Diver license at "Just Africa Scuba" and it was also my first diving experience. I couldn't have been better looked after and introduced to diving than by the staff at this diving school. From the flexible appointment scheduling to the professional, sensitive and personal support, everything was absolutely perfect. I can recommend this diving school to anyone, especially people who may still be a little apprehensive about diving. Everything was explained to me patiently and repeatedly until I felt comfortable. The diving itself was an unforgettable experience. There was always someone available to answer questions by phone.
Thank you very much

What can I say? I enrolled in the PADI Rescue Diver course as a spontaneous impromptu purchase and had my work cut out to complete the e learning in time before the dive. Every step of the way, Just Africa were helpful, knowledgeable and flexible going out of their way to make it happen for me and my availability. The course its self was very well resourced and progressive. No less than three dive masters and one dive master instructor were involved in the tuition and I was supported and encouraged every step of the way. I could not recommend Just Africa Scuba enough, you cant go wrong with these guys. I'll be back to them in a flash to build on my experience.

That's how I felt on this diving trip, the ocean is in pristine condition and full of life. It was an absolute privilege to share those moments with family and friends. The island it's self is full of life and culture, it's also amazing to explore around and going for amazing sunrise walks. Just Africa scuba really knocked it out the park and gave my family and i an amazing experience.

Just got my PADI open water diving qualification through them! Absolutely loved it. The Instructor Mari was very kind and understanding and helped me through the process while keeping me calm and safe in the water. The owner was extremely kind and bubbly and is always around and not shy to share experience and information.
Thank you Just Scub!

The whole course was so professional, the instruction, the gear, the facilities, outstanding. Maurus, has the ability to explain actions so anyone can understand. One is able to repeat these tasks until you get them right and feel comfortable. Jaco and Katia were constantly there to help us with anything. Mari, worked with Maurus, so there were two instructors in the pool with us. It was, certainly, speaking for myself a day to remember, at the age of 70 , always wanted to scuba. Now my wish has come true, thank you, all of you.
