South Sea Adventures was formed in 2001. At that time there were no professional scuba diving establishments in Alberton. We decided that this must change and hence South Sea Adventures became a reality.
The shop had humble beginnings with a handful of very basic products displayed. As time went on and we got more and more exposure the product list got bigger and bigger.
Major renovations started in February 2008. The 200 000 liter pool was first, then the shop was completely renovated. We are now a 100% complete PADI dive center.
Offering a wide variety of courses, dive equipment and scuba safaris, local and international. South Sea Adventures also caters for young scuba enthusiasts offering Kids Scuba Parties supervised under highly qualified safety divers.
We will get you any brand that is not stocked by us.

The game of volleyball, originally called “mintonette”, was invented by William G. Morgan in 1895. Morgan, a graduate of the Springfield College of the YMCA, designed the game to be a combination of basketball, baseball, tennis and handball.
During a demonstration game, someone remarked to Morgan that the players seemed to be volleying the ball back and forth over the net, and perhaps “volleyball” would be a more descriptive name for the sport. On July 7, 1896 at Springfield College the first game of “volleyball” was played.

Skydiving is one of those extra ordinary adventure activities practiced by a selected few people around the world.
Sport Skydiving started in France after WW2 when the French discovered that they had Parachutes and jumpable aircraft all over the country. Only now they started jumping for fun, or sport, rather than part of a military machine. To this day France has the most active Skydivers of any country in the world, with the U.S.A. at a close second.
Skydivers in South Africa are a relatively small community consisting of just less than a thousand individuals. These people are from all walks of life and seemingly has very little in common. These Skydivers range from students to computer programmers to attorneys, auditors, photographers and everything in-between. Yet on weekends they all share a passion, and a common goal to excel in their sport of jumping out of aircraft… Their sport of skydiving!
Over the decades the pioneers of Skydiving has devised ways to bring the awesomeness of the sport to the average individual while making the sport of skydiving as safe as it can possibly be.
There are three ways for the beginner to experience the thrill of sport parachuting and two ways for the novice to experience the incredible rush of Freefall.
The simplest way to experience Skydiving to it’s full potential without the worry of training is by signing up to do a Tandem Jump.
If however you are one of those people who would like to do it all by yourself, the best way to become a qualified Skydiver is to do an Accelerated Freefall (AFF) course.
If Skydiving is something you have always wanted to do, but never knew how, or who to contact, this is your chance to make that dream come true.
