About MAAC Dive Section
First formed in the late 1960s but disbanded in the mid 1980s their main interest was spear fishing! We now have a lot of interest from club members, who would like to see this section start up again. The major goals will include:- To promote safe diving at all times
- To dive with like minded buddies
- To have fun
- Conservation of the marine environment
- Social interaction
Diving
The basis of any dive club is, of course, its diving. We will have a Dive Co-ordinator, and Club dives are organized by volunteer members.Regular trips away could be organized, ranging from overseas destinations, through the far reaches of western Australia, to a weekend in Dunsborough. We will also organize regular dives in the metro area, both day and night dives, shore dives and boat dives. The Club is always keen to dive new and unusual sites.
Safe diving is encouraged at all times. An annual dive skills review course is organized by the Club, and all members are encouraged to participate. On any Club dive, new divers will be partnered with a more experienced buddy.
Meetings
The MAAC Dive Club will meet on the third Tuesday of every month at 7.00pm at the club rooms.At almost all meetings we intend to have a guest speaker, who could be one of our own members describing (usually with pictures) a recent dive trip, or someone with expertise in some aspect of aquatic life.
