A social/recreational club for local divers to enjoy the fabulous diving in the Bay and around Northland.  Most members are scuba divers, a few just snorkel.

Regular evening meetings first Thursday each month (alternating Paihia/Kerikeri) to plan club dive trips.  One local dive each month and an average of one further afield (Poor Knights, Cavallis etc) every two months – fish watching, photography, wreck diving, crayfish, scallops… About 20% of members have boats, there is always room for everyone who wants to go.  Passengers contribute to fuel costs.  As well as club dives, members become part of a network of divers who can arrange dives together whenever they feel like it.
The club also organises the annual Russell to Paihia snorkel/scuba race (2008 is the 26th event), which attracts teams from around Northland and Auckland for competition, social gathering and charity fund raising. 
Annual subscription $25 includes affiliation to NZ Underwater Association
