Komati Springs: inland quarry with cave training
Shore-entry inland quarry with vertical walls, overhead passages, and technical-training focus; best for divers comfortable with depth and staging.
About Komati Springs
Komati Springs is a rehabilitated inland dive site built around a flooded mine basin and a joining cave system. The old mining footprint was cleaned up, but the rock walls and overhead passages remain the draw, making it a strong fit for technical training, controlled navigation, and depth-focused dives. It is calm year-round and rewards divers who want structure and planning rather than reef scenery.
