Welcome to the Adelaide University Scuba Club!

Established over 35 years ago, Adelaide University Scuba Diving Club Inc (AUSC) has grown to become one of the largest and most active independent, recreational Scuba Diving Clubs in Australia. The club has a diverse membership with experience ranging from beginners in the process of completing their Open Water Courses through to divers with mixed gas, technical and cave qualifications that choose to log more than 150 dives each year with our club. There is a strong focus on making diving accessible to members of all levels of experience, with the vast majority of the clubs week to week activities suitable for the entire membership. AUSC has strong links with the University of Adelaide through the Adelaide University Sports Association and is committed to providing students access to safe, economical diving activities. The club is very active with local dives heading out every weekend throughout the year, regular mid week night dives and trips away within South Australia. Members are able to do as little or as much diving as they want.

While the club does not teach diving courses itself, a number of courses through external trainers are scheduled and conducted each year. These include PADI and SSI Open Water, Advanced Open Water and Rescue Courses as well as Cave Divers Association of Australia Cavern/Sinkhole and Cave Courses. Members are able to access quality training at very economical rates and also benefit from completing course with other members they will be diving with. Courses that deal directly with diving are only one part of the knowledge base a well rounded club diver needs. Throughout the year AUSC organises a number of allied training courses in Boat Handling and Seamanship, Coastal Navigation and Marine Radio Operation as well as DAN Oxygen and Resuscitation and Senior First Aid Certifications.
