Swansea Dive Trip:

Ever seen a pineapple fish, huge dusky flathead or old wife? Want to see octopuses, moray eels, threadfin butterflyfish and eastern talmas? Then come join us in Swansea!

|| WHAT'S HAPPENING ||

We’re heading to Swansea for a weekend of fun scuba diving. The diving around Swansea bridge is excellent and great for scuba divers of all experience levels. If you are new to the club and/or scuba diving, this is the perfect opportunity to come along on a trip, get comfortable with your scuba skills and meet new diving buddies. 

If a full day of splashing in the sea is leaving you thirsty, you can look forward to quenching your thirst on party night! Drinks will be provided however those with more discerning tastes are welcome to bring your own.

If you are uncomfortable sharing a house and possibly a room with people you don’t know, this trip is unfortunately not for you.

|| DIVING ||

$25 per boat dive

Any shore dives we do are free! Air fills at local dive shops are roughly $10/fill.

Diving with the Underwater club is different to diving with a dive shop - we don't have assigned dive guides, and everyone running the dives is a volunteer. You should be comfortable swimming in the ocean unassisted, diving in a buddy pair and diving off a boat to come on this trip. In order to participate in the organised dives, you will need to show us your SCUBA certification card and be competent and confident in your swimming abilities. 

|| GEAR ||

You are responsible for organising your own gear. BCDs, tanks, regulators, wetsuits, masks, fins and weights are all available to hire from the club through our gear hire portal - https://www.revolutionise.com.au/underwaterclub/gear-hire-. You will need to book, collect, clean, dry and return any hired club gear. 

|| GETTING THERE ||

Swansea is about 2 hours drive north of Sydney. Everyone is responsible for organising their own transport (including dive gear). Carpooling can be organised for those without their own transport options.
