Australia's Own Diving Association

Having been over here and Diving for a few months I am beginning to wonder why Australia does not have it's own club based diving organisation (akin to Bsac or Scotsac).

I am not bashing PADI, NAUI or similar organisations but I think the Aus diving scene could benifit from the creation of such a scheme.

Basically just looking at how strongly people feel about this before looking into how realistic it would be to set up, if there is nothing that exsists already.

Hi Mike

That sounds like a good idea, if a little difficult to start up!

I am a Dive Instructor working in Thailand and we at Sunrise Diving have been looking into setting up an Ex-pat Diving Group which can not only benefit people already living here, but also those who are looking for information to come over here and for those who have just arrived here.

This is something you may also want to look at

For any more information on this then please do not hesitate to contact me, Happy Diving!! Emma

A Turtle Nursery At WakatobiA Turtle Nursery At Wakatobi
Sea Turtles can live to be 100 years old, but most don’t survive their first few days. In the wild, the tiny hatchlings typically encounter a gauntlet of predators as they hatch and make their way from beachside nests to open water, and they remain especially vulnerable those first few months of life. When nature is in balance, this attrition is a normal part of the circle of life. But when turtles become threatened by factors such as habitat loss, or predators like fish and birds, they may need a little extra help to maintain a normal population. This is where Wakatobi Dive Resort has stepped in.
