Diving with Scuba Magic
Robin & Lyn Cooke

Robin and Lyn Cooke started Scuba Magic in January 2002. We started diving in 1995 before we knew we were hooked on diving. We dived Aliwal Shoal, Sodwana and Mozambique. It was the most wonderful experience and it inspired us to start our own company. Robin did his instructors course, which was his first step into opening his own company.

The business has gone from strength to strength as well as Robin's exuberance in every aspect of life. Every course we present gets dazzled with Robin's personality, and every step you take he takes it with you — never a dull moment.

We also arrange dive trips, and not only take pride in the courses but in everything we do. We want you to live and feel the moment of every diving experience — from pool, to inland diving, to the great big sea.
