About Crest Diving
Crest Diving is a specialist guided dive and snorkel safari operator in the Jervis Bay region, led by owner Sue Newson who has logged over 3,000 dives in Jervis Bay across 22 years in the industry. Operating seven days a week with bookings essential, the business offers a professional, personalised alternative to larger dive operations.
All dives and snorkels are exclusively guided, with PADI Divemasters leading small groups to the bay's best sites based on the day's conditions. Crest Diving caters to all experience levels, from first-time snorkellers to advanced divers seeking grey nurse shark encounters at the Arch or Cathedral formations. Equipment hire is available in a full range of sizes, and the business also offers airfills up to 300 bar, enriched air nitrox, and trimix blends for technical divers.
Sue's encyclopedic knowledge of Jervis Bay's underwater topography — every reef, cave, and seasonal wildlife pattern — makes Crest Diving a favourite among returning divers who want to go beyond the standard sites. The small-group format means more time in the water and more attention from guides, and the relaxed, friendly atmosphere draws a loyal local following alongside visiting divers.
