Do you want to get a chance to see sponges, nudibranchs, blind sharks and pineapple fish?

Well, you’ll want to join our Nelson Bay trip!

|| WHAT'S HAPPENING ||

“Best shore dives in Australia” at Halifax Park, Aquatic Reserve! The Underwater Club is heading north to Nelson Bay. Expect good diving, great company, moderate banter, big cook ups, and a rad party. There may even present an opportunity for a night dive, to be assessed during trip.

After a few full days splashing in the sea is leaving you thirsty, Sunday night will be party night! (Theme TBA). Drinks will be provided however those with more discerning tastes are welcome to bring their own.

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