About ZOAC
A country defined by water and wilderness.
For years Zambia's adventure story was told everywhere except where it began. Founded in 2023 on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, we've grown from a single dive outpost in Mpulungu into a national operator — owned, staffed and led by Zambians.

The capability behind the trip
We train the divers, guides and rescue teams that Zambia's mining, municipal and school sectors depend on — to the same protocols we use for a first-time diver.
Training & industry01
Safety first, always
Every expedition, dive and training programme runs on internationally recognised safety protocols, with equipment and certification standards we hold ourselves to before we ask it of anyone else.
02
Local roots, national reach
We are built from a Zambian lake town outward. Our guides and dive professionals are overwhelmingly Zambian, and our growth has always followed local knowledge first.
