Book on our free guided shore dive with our resident Marine Biologist, Dr Kate as we take part in the annual Great Victorian Fish Count. What is the Great Victorian Fish Count?
Every November and December, hundreds of divers and snorkelers plunge into the water to take part in the biggest citizen-science event on Victoria’s marine calendar, the Great Victorian Fish Count.
Armed with a dive slate, they record the numbers of a selection of important fish species and report any others not usually found in the area as part of this long-term monitoring of fish across the Victorian coast.
The Count has been running since 2002, led by the Victorian National Parks Association in partnership with Museum Victoria, Parks Victoria, Coastcare Victoria, Redmap, local dive operators and local community groups.
The data collected is uploaded to the Atlas of Living Australia (an online store for biodiversity data, currently with over 67 million records) to improve our knowledge of Victoria’s marine species.
Exact time and location of dive site will be confirmed to those that RSVP as attending a few days prior to the event. This Event Is Free For Our Current Club Members only.
Please RSVP with any hire gear requirements (please call to book & pay for your dive gear).
