Dive passes
Formalities and safety
Before you dive
To dive in French Polynesia, you will need to fill in a medical fitness questionnaire for scuba diving. If you answer “yes” to any of the questions, or if you are 60 or over, you will be asked for a medical certificate of fitness for scuba diving issued less than a year ago.
You will also need to show your diver certification card (physical or digital). These formalities are part of the regulations in force in French Polynesia.
Although it is not mandatory, we recommend that you show us your logbook recording all your diving experience. To ensure your safety, it is also essential to tell us about your current physical condition and to let us know about any particular question or concern.
A chamber 3 h 30 away by plane
As the nearest hyperbaric chamber is in Tahiti, about 3 hours 30 minutes by plane from Nuku Hiva, caution and prevention are of the utmost importance.
Given this geographical isolation, Nuku-Dive limits the maximum depth to 40 metres for Level 3 divers and above, and does not allow dives requiring mandatory decompression stops. Certified children under 15 are only offered single dives.
No altitude after a dive
For your safety, going up to the Toovi plateau (over 800 metres above sea level) or Mount Tekao (1,224 metres), whether hiking, horse riding or for any other activity at altitude, is forbidden after a dive on the same day.

Yes. Nuku-Dive is a member of the three dive pass platforms in French Polynesia: Dive Polynesia, eDivingPass and Temoana Pass.
Yes, but only for bookings made during the Tahiti tourism fairs, held every year at Mamao park on the first weekends of February and September: you will find us in the Marquesas Islands tent. No proof is required, and you can also book for friends and family coming to dive in Nuku Hiva.
Yes, but the morning trip is planned for two successive dives, with the corresponding staff and equipment: it is therefore charged at the full trip price. As the surface interval takes place on board, a person skipping one of the two dives stays on the boat until the end of the morning.
For a standard booking: no fee if you cancel more than 72 hours before the trip; 50% of the amount is due between 72 and 24 hours; 100% less than 24 hours before. A trip interrupted at your request remains fully due. If we cancel, all sums paid are refunded.
