The Salty Tribe
Come for the adventure.
Leave with community.
Ocean retreats, local snorkels, dives and salty dips to experience incredible ocean wildlife, build confidence and feel more at home in the ocean.
Based in Torquay on Victoria's Surf Coast, The Salty Tribe runs local ocean adventures along the coast, as well as unforgettable retreats across Australia and overseas.
Specialising in small-group ocean adventures for women, we create experiences where you can try new things, build confidence, meet lovely people and do things you might never have thought possible. Women's experiences are at the heart of what we do, but private trips and events for all genders are also available.

YOUR GUIDE
Led personally, every time
"One significant moment occurred when I faced anxiety and a panic attack 30 metres below the ocean's surface. Confronting that fear is what taught me how to guide other women through theirs."
