The change occurred last year when travel&co. owner Rob Macready decided that a dedicated dive travel agency was better placed to manage their dive travel clientele.

“During Covid border closures we hibernated for two years, sadly saying goodbye to much of our amazing team. We have had many enquiries from our loyal dive customers and realised we needed to do more to support them. After looking at various options, we decided Diveplanit Travel is best placed to look after our valued dive clients into the future.

“Simon Mallender and Deb Dickson-Smith are passionate ocean lovers, experienced divers, and travellers. Together with their team, a specialist dive travel agency, we believe we have found a like-minded company that will take good care of our clients. Passionate and niche – just like travel&co.”

Diveplanit co-Founder and Managing Director Simon Mallender agrees: “We are in this business because we are passionate about the underwater world, discovering new destinations and experiences, and sharing them with our loyal customers.”
Diveplanit is an ATAS-accredited travel agent with experience you can trust, accredited through the peak industry body, the Australian Travel Industry Association (ATIA).

Whether it’s a dive holiday for your dive club, you and your buddy or your mates, or if you’re solo and looking to dive with equally enthusiastic people, Diveplanit will get you to the best scuba diving locations on the planet.
Diveplanit has contracts with over 300 resorts and liveaboards, which can save you countless hours researching options at specific destinations, dealing directly to suppliers to access great deals which consumers don’t have access to.

Diveplanit provides a one-stop shop that can advise on and book every aspect of a trip, including flights, ground transfers, accommodation, diving, side tours, activities, and travel insurance.

Contact Diveplanit Travel for help with your next dive trip – whether that’s just for you, you and your buddy or your local dive club.
