We've been diving in Milford Sound since 1995; setting up the business, Tawaki Dive, in 1997 with a mission to show visitors the amazing world of Fiordland above and below the water in a way that is not only safe, but also informative and fun.

Fiordland's unique marine environment results from a combination of dramatic mountains and intense rainfall. Massive volumes of water flow into the fiords, causing a freshwater layer to overlay the seawater, thereby creating an environment where deepwater species can live at unusually shallow depths.

This means that scuba divers like you can see rare black and red corals, spiny sea-dragons and other deepwater life at only 10-15m.

Together with the Tawaki team, we take great pride in offering you a fantastic experience in Fiordland and hope that some of our passion for New Zealand, and Milford Sound in particular, will rub off on you for you to take home.
