* If you need to work around those dates and come for a day or two ALL GOOD TOO, just coming for a day or so does not include a cost.
* Also only ONE member of your group needs to be the member.
* Why are we asking for you to join simply it supports those who have organized the event, usage of our equipment, boat, "toys" working with our expertise. All associations usually have a charge for an event... however members are FREE!
HAMELIN BAY
Is sheltered with 7 Shipwrecks some close to shore and can be viewed with just mask and snorkel, others shallow with lots of wreckage remaining to survey and create new 3D images.
You do not need to be a diver or experienced to join us; there is much to do on shore as well. Though we will also have access to a boat or two….
Don’t forget your snorkel and dive gear and cameras.
Have you aware of the Friendly stingrays, we may even put a drone over the jetty, we will for sure be researching more of the wrecks in Hamelin Bay and would love you to join us.
Accommodation is at your own expense, bring your van, get an Airbnb or motel.
Meals are also at your own expense.
Following on from our social dinners, we know getting together with #MaawaMembers is inclusive, fun, engaging and super interesting.
This is a wreck we did before.
