Agua e Mar, Praia do Sol
Contact Details: +27 (0) 82 570 4300
Website: www.pdsol.co.za
Comments: An independent water sports operation run by Rudy (Rudolf) that is located in the Praia Do Sol grounds under their bar area. Most of the diving is done in the lake as access to the sea is tricky. There is a beach area that they have to dig away in order to access the sea. This is done fairly regularly by a few operators, but it keeps filling in again. Best to first contact them and ask if the mouth is open or not
Directions: See directions for Praia Do Sol in the roads and services section for this sector
Courses: PADI and CMAS
Capacity: 16 divers per trip. Only one trip will be made to the sea per day if the mouth is open. Lake dives are very easy to arrange through the day, if they have enough divers

Supplied:
Full gear available
Types of Boats: One 8.2m RIB - Max 16 persons. 8.5m Invader fishing boat
Services: They have accommodation, see Praia do Sol on the accommodation page for more information
