Dive Kit Hire
Underwater Explorers has an extensive range of scuba diving equipment available for short or long term rent throughout the year. You can rent single or twinset wings to BCDs, cylinders, stage bottle, regulator sets, wetsuits, dry suits or canister torches for your diving trips.
Please Note: Due to hygiene concerns we do not hire out masks, wetsuit boots and thinsulate/undersuits. If renting one of our membrane dry suits please ensure you bring appropriate thermal protection to wear underneath.
Booking and Cancellations: A booking is made once the equipment being rented is paid for in full by phone. We have a 7 day cancellation period for any rentals (excluding gas fills) whereby if you let us know a minimum of 7 days before “check out” date, we will issue a full refund. Refunds will not be issued for late cancellations.
If a cylinder booking requires any gas fill other than air, the listed price of nitrox and/or trimix will be charged in advance and is non-refundable. Our current gas fill prices are listed on our Gas Price Page. Divers are required to fill in a rental form at checkout in the store.
