Swinburne
Scuba Club
Swinburne University
Scuba Club is organised to provide students with the cheapest way to learn
and participate in the sport of SCUBA diving, in a safe and responsible
environment. Our equipment includes a towing vehicle, compressor trailer
and five sets of SCUBA gear (including BCD, regulators and tanks). We
provide subsidised diving oportunities in all parts of Victoria and on
special occasions, around Australia.
Beginners
training is held twice a year, and costs about $325. Held over two weekends
and two week nights, opportunities to learn SCUBA at this price are very
rare. Training is undertaken by professional PADI instructors to all levels,
and club dives are always supervised by a Swinburne Univirsity Scuba Club
boat-master to maintain the highest standard of safety. The club conducts
SCUBA Video and Slide Nights and the odd social event where we always
tend to get wet! So come and dive with Swinburne University Scuba Club
and experience the fun and wonders of the underwater world.
The Swinburne Scuba
Club (SSC) has been a high-profile club at Swinburne University for well
over 20 years. The aim of the SSC is to provide training from beginners
up to Divemaster level, as well as offering regular club activities for
divers of all skill levels and interests. The Swinburne Scuba Club is
extremely active in Port Phillip Bay, running dives from Portsea and Rosebud,
around the Bay to Queenscliff and the Port Phillip Heads (or "The Rip").
Offering some of the most exhilarating diving in Australia, these areas
attract divers and other water sports people from around the state. From
pier dives to exciting deep-wreck dives this sport is extremely popular.
Our six metre purpose fitted boat is a regular feature at the more popular
dive-spots, and our high level of equipment always stands the club in
high regard.
Swinburne Scuba Club
is particularly proud of its activity record, offering dives every weekend
over the summer season, and numerous extended trips throughout the year
to various locations. Several years ago, a two week trip to a popular
island in Queensland was organised, with 18 club members enjoying a memorable
holiday, and attracting considerable interest from other holidayers. Our
safety record is exemplary, with club activities always organised by an
appropriately trained diver.
