If you are not sure what level three means for divers, open up https://sportnz.org.nz/…/Play-Active-Recreation-and-Sport-a…. For example : Scuba is not permitted, but snorkelling is – providing it is only with a bubble buddy, in your local area, within 200m of shore and in favourable conditions. Hire gear is not an option – you must only use your own equipment.
Diver training and arranging any group activities are prohibited at this level. The Kilbernie Aquatic Centre has no scheduled opening date at the moment. All training is on hold.
If you want further guidance on boating and water-based activities at each alert level this will be provided by Maritime NZ , see www.maritimenz.govt.nz/recreational.
