White Island is an active volcano 48 kilometres off the shores of Whakatane, a town located in the Bay of Plenty on New Zealand's beautiful North Island. Because White Island is one of the world's best scuba diving destinations, it provides a very unique dive experience as New Zealand's only active marine volcano. As such, it attracts hundreds of divers every year on their diving holiday.
"From the time I stepped on the boat I felt like I was
on an adventure. Thank you for the amazing experience."
