Our Commitment To Sustainability
Our Commitment to Sustainability
At Dive Spear and Sport, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s the foundation of everything we do. From our dive operations to our online store, we wholeheartedly embrace our role as stewards of the ocean. We stand as proud ambassadors of environmentally responsible, ethical, educational, and sustainable tourism.
Our team is driven by a deep passion for safeguarding the future of the Great Barrier Reef, integrating environmentally friendly practices into every aspect of our business and operations, including our ecommerce. We align our actions with our core values, with a strong emphasis on environmental protection, management, education, and overall sustainability.
Eco-Conscious Packaging
We ship every product from our online store using recycled and compostable packaging. The purchasing of packaging contributes to forest regression. Our packaging also plant a tree for every order we make. From your first dive mask to your next spearfishing gear, we ensure that our packaging aligns with our values of reducing waste and supporting a cleaner planet.
Ethical Sourcing and Partnerships
We believe in doing business with brands that care as much about sustainability as we do. That’s why we carefully select suppliers who prioritise environmentally friendly practices and uphold the same commitment to conservation. When you shop with us, you’re not just getting quality products—you’re supporting ethical and sustainable brands.
Giving Back to Conservation
A portion of our profits goes directly toward supporting marine conservation efforts. We actively participate in and contribute to citizen science programs like 'Eye on the Reef,' collecting vital data to help monitor and protect the Great Barrier Reef's biodiversity. By choosing to shop with us, you're also playing a part in these important efforts.
Educating and Inspiring Action
We believe that education is a key component of conservation. Our tours and experiences incorporate marine conservation presentations, and we inspire our guests to become ocean advocates. Through our online store, we aim to extend this knowledge by offering eco-friendly products that help you make sustainable choices in your aquatic adventures.
Stringent Environmental Policies
At Dive Spear and Sport, we follow strict environmental policies that guide everything from our daily operations to waste management. These practices ensure that we maintain the highest standards of environmental stewardship both in the water and on land.
Powered by the Sun
Our dive center runs on solar energy, harnessing the power of the sun to reduce our reliance on non-renewable resources. This helps us minimise our carbon footprint while serving as a model for eco-conscious tourism on the Southern Great Barrier Reef.
