A gap year diving in South Africa is sure to be an experience you'll never forget! The South African Cape Peninsula provides access to two different oceans - the Atlantic and the Indian - and a diverse collection of plants, animals and habitats.
In just a single day of gap year diving in South Africa, you could find yourself face to face with a seal, taking in the splendour of a majestic kelp forest and spotting whales, a rainbow of fish and even a shark or two. Additionally, the area is famous for the spectacular number of shipwrecks that have been preserved underwater, waiting for you to explore them.
For those who spend their gap year diving in South Africa, Pepper will organise a PADI-certified course at Pro-divers, a five-star dive centre that has been awarded National Geographic Status. The instructors have so much experience - we couldn't even begin to describe all of their diving exploits - and with them by your side, you'll be sure to have some amazing diving adventures of your own!
At the end of the intensive eight-week course, your time spent gap year diving in South Africa will have earned you four different diving certifications, culminating with a PADI Divemaster qualification.
Of course, a gap year diving in South Africa isn't just about spending every moment in the water. To keep you from getting too waterlogged, you'll also have plenty of time to explore Cape Town - the shops, the culture and the nightlife!
Living with a group of other travellers who are also spending a gap year diving in South Africa (they may also be learning sailing, surfing or photography skills), you will be living right in the centre of Cape Town. At the end of your gap year diving in South Africa course, you and your new friends will all head out for three more weeks of travel around the country.
You'll get to go on safari and have the chance to leap from the Bloukrans Bridge - the world's highest bungee jump. Other experiences will include shark diving, relaxing on some of the most gorgeous beaches on the planet and bonding with your fellow travellers around a campfire.
