The diving competitions at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris were held from 27 July to 10 August 2024 at the Paris Aquatics Centre. A total of 136 divers, with an equal distribution between men and women, competed across eight medal events (four per gender in both individual and synchronized) at these Games, the same amount as Tokyo 2020.

For the first time, Chinese divers swept all of the available events, winning a record eight gold medals. Great Britain won no golds for the first time since 2016, but won a national record of five medals, being the only team other than China to win more than two, and finished in second place in the table for the third successive Games.

Qualification

136 diving quota places, with an equal split between men and women, were available for Paris 2024; NOCs could enter a maximum of two divers each in the men's and women's individual events and a gender-based pair in the synchronized events, respecting a sixteen-member (eight per gender) country limit. To be eligible for the Games, all divers had to be 14 years old and above on or before December 31, 2023; and had to have participated in various international meets approved by World Aquatics.

Individual events

The qualification spots for each of the individual springboard and platform diving events (both men and women) had been attributed as follows:

  • Continental Qualification Tournaments – The winners of each individual event obtained a quota place for their NOC at one of the five continental meets (Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, and Oceania) approved by World Aquatics.
  • 2024 World Championships – Twelve highest-ranked divers eligible for qualification obtained a quota place for their NOC in each individual event at the 2024 World Aquatics Championships, scheduled for February 2 to 18, in Doha, Qatar, respecting the two-member country limit and without surpassing the total quota of 136.
  • Reallocation – Additional spots had been entitled to the eligible divers placed thirteenth and above in their corresponding individual events, respecting the two-member country limit, at the 2024 World Aquatics Championships until they attained the total quota of 136.
  • Host nation – As the host country, France reserved four men's and four women's spots to be distributed in each of the individual diving events.
