2026 Important Update:
After careful consideration of changing market trends, we have decided to permanently close our public diving gas fill station as of 2026.
This decision arises from a shift in how our community accesses diving gases in the area, coupled with a significant increase in demand for our retail services, both online and in-store. By stopping our gas fills, we are creating space to better support Portland’s local specialised operator, whose primary focus is air fills, gas blending and diving boat operation: Portland Gas Shack & SkinDeeper.
We believe this move enhances the local diving ecosystem by allowing an essential element of Portland diving to flourish and strengthen.
Why the change?
This transition allows us to dedicate 100% of our energy to what we do best: providing an industry-leading retail experience for divers worldwide, while matching the exponential growth in demand for our services.
Whether you visit us in-store on our opening days, Friday through Monday, or browse and shop online for delivery to your door, where DirDirect is staffed every day, our mission is to offer unrivalled access to the most cutting-edge brands and innovative diving technology available today and in the future.
We are incredibly grateful for your years of ongoing support and look forward to seeing you in-store and serving you online as we continue to refine your retail experience.
Safe Diving!
