Overview

Stoke Beach House


Located 100 meters from Manly Beach and only 5-minutes walk from the bustling wharf, The Beach House is your slice of home and adventure in the middle of Manly.

About The Dive Trip Plunge

Comfy beds, an awesome house and world-class 5-star PADI instructors await you…

There’s no better place to get a taste of the Aussie dive scene, Aussie beer and Aussie sunshine. Manly Beach is, without doubt, one of the perfect destinations offering up some of Sydney’s best shore and boat dive sites.

Right on your doorstep is Manly’s world-famous, Cabbage Tree Bay Aquatic Reserve covering approximately 20 hectares and more than 160 species of fish. This incredible local diving gemstone includes seven main types of habitat: sandy beaches, rocky shores, rocky reefs, kelp, seagrass beds, sandy seabed and open water.

If you’ve always wanted to learn how to dive or want to brush up on your skills, the dive trip plunge packages are how to get it done.

You’ll get to dust off the hangover with yoga and a delicious healthy breakfast each morning before heading out to float the day away in the underwater playgrounds that Sydney has to offer. The Beach House surfboards and snorkels are yours to borrow so you can continue the under the sea theme until sundown. Manly is your playground every evening, and Stoke Beach House is your vibey home base filled with open-minded internationals ready to share a story and a beer.

When you book the dive trip plunge, absolutely everything is included. Accommodation, a healthy breakfast, morning yoga, surfboard hire, beach cruiser bicycle hire, snorkel hire, WiFi, cinema screenings and housemate events. Even the Aussie delicacy… fairy bread!

 
100% FOMO-free experience.

Dive Lessons

We arrange dive lessons for all levels.

Your PADI dive instructors will work with you daily, taking great pride in making sure you see the famous Weedy Sea Dragons, Grey Nurse Sharks and more, and a smile on your dial every lesson. Because of tides and wind, you’ll likely dive at different times each day. Simply check the lesson board the day before and join your crew at the meeting spot.

You can feel safe and confident knowing you’re learning with the #1 dive school in NSW. The Beach House snorkels are yours for the taking if you feel like some extracurricular water time. There is no limit to the time you can spend in the water. If you’ve always wanted to learn to dive or have your sights set on taking your skills to the next level, this is the best way to get it done!

What to bring:

  • Swimsuit
  • Towel

Overview

The Pro Dive Openwater scuba diving course is a combination of classroom-based theory, pool and open ocean dives. You’ll be trained to dive to a depth of 18 metres and issued with your Openwater Scuba Diver certification which is recognised worldwide. 

Before starting the course, you’ll need to complete your theory online, which will take approximately 6-7 hours to complete. You’ll be required to complete a theory exam. It is also a requirement that you can swim 200 metres (without stopping) and tread water for 10 minutes. You may use any technique to complete this swim, and there is no time limit. The practical skills of diving are then covered and practised in the comfort of the pool.

To develop your skills, there are 4 open water training dives. During these ocean dives, you’ll repeat some of the skills learned in the pool plus additional practical skills to ensure that you are a competent Open Water scuba diver.  

You must be considered fit to dive to complete an Openwater Course and may require a dive medical. Click here to fill out our online medical form to determine if you are Fit to Dive or if you need a Dive Medical.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question that’s not answered?
Contact Us.

I’ve Never Dived before, is that Normal?

Yes! Very normal. We cater to all levels of divers, and you will be in good company with others that haven’t dived before either. One of the things we love most about Stoke Beach House is watching people progress and fall in love with their new hobby.

What if I Can Dive like an Olympic Synchronised Swimmer Already?

There’s no better place to park yourself up to explore some of the best shore and boat dives in the country, which is no easy feat considering it’s a continent littered with fantastic coral reefs! With 4 awe-inspiring dive spots literally within walking distance, we’re frequented by divers wanting to get the best ride of their lives and not just because we’re great at beds. 

Can I Pee in the Ocean?

No. Sydney has a strict no-urine-in-ocean policy. We encourage all guests to bring reusable bags or airtight containers to deposit urine. Urine disrupts the PH levels of the water and lowers the visibility for divers and marine life. Great White Sharks are attracted to the excretions of humans, so for you own safety and the safety of others please ‘bag it and bin it’.

I Want to Chill, is The Beach House a Party Vibe?

We’re only human at The Beach House, which means that we enjoy a beer or two after a hard days diving, but we also love a good Netflix and chill as well. We try to make sure there is a healthy balance, and there’s certainly no pressure to hit the town if your feeling more like hitting the pillow.

I’m Feeling like a Baller, Are There Private Rooms Available?

Yes, you’re in luck. I know we don’t seem it, but we are a baller at heart too. We have private rooms with king beds and also twin and trio share beds if you like your friends but don’t want to touch bums with them accidentally in the night.

What Makes You So Darn Special?

We don’t mean to toot our own horn but toot-toot! Stoke Beach House isn’t like the rest; our newly renovated 5-star hostel is the full experience. There is not an inch of The Beach House that hasn’t been left unturned.

Our new dorm rooms are equipped with lush pods and lockup storage. Close the curtain on your pod, and you’re in your private little sanctuary with king pillows, luxurious sheets and comfy mattresses. The bathrooms have awesome showers, private cubicles and are stocked with body wash. The ladies bathroom even has a hairdryer!

Laundry facilities are provided with washing machines, dryers and a washing line to keep you looking fresh. Our kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could need – gas stove stops, coolroom to store your food, Breville coffee machine to keep the caffeine comedowns at bay, microwaves, utensils, cutlery and plates. 

Stoke Beach House hosts 1-hour morning yoga class, full, healthy breakfasts, surfboards, bikes, snorkels, surf lessons, dive lessons and housemate activities. What more could you need?!?
