So Long Summer

Wow, another Summer has passed us by, first day of Autumn and the diving is great, water is  nice and warm, about 26 deg sometimes a little more and vis is lovely. The conditions will hopefully stay nice now, the water will be warm for a few more months.

Give Away

If you just haven’t been able to dive over Summer (this Year!) we are going to help, we are giving away a refresher, this includes a bit of a touch up with your dive knowledge, a pool session to brush up on your skills and then a dive in the Seaway with one of our Instructors!

If you would like to win this (if you NEED this) just send and email to us with the heading I NEED THIS! and your contact details in the body.

We are going to draw it on the 15th of March and if YOU win you can bring a friend for FREE and we WILL be on your case to get in the water.

Photography Workshop

We all love looking at great photos, most of us can only dream about taking that one sensational shot, you know the one I mean,Nat Geo worthy. Hahaha

Darren Jew , Canon master, has not one, but two National Geographic covers to his name and is offering photography courses at Devocean Dive throughout the year.

The first session will be a photography workshop at Devocean Dive on Sunday the 26th of March. Start time will be 10.30am and we are taking expressions of interest as numbers will be limited.

Cost p/p will be very low, $19 and will include pool entry and lunch.

This will be hands on with Darren Jew, Darren and Jasmine will bring along some cameras to use for those of you who don’t have one yet, you can even bring your GoPro, they will cover how to get the most out of your camera and some shooting in the pool so you know how to use it under water.

This is an unprecedented opportunity to learn from one of the greats check out some of his work at www.darrenjew.com

Social Evening

Our social night was a great success, we demolished 18 pizzas, made some new friends and caught up with some old ones. Darren showcased some of his work and Tania from Spirit of Freedom promoted their wonderful liveaboard and our trip in May. Big thanks to everyone who joined us, it was a fun night and it is so wonderful to share that common love of the Ocean with like minded people.
