What is the Scuba Divers Federation of South Australia, Inc?

Our Federation brings SA’s recreational scuba diving shops, clubs, related NGOs and individual divers, snorkellers and free divers together as a single, strong force. We advocate for the enjoyment and preservation of our unique underwater world. We support and advise our stakeholders in all diving related matters.

We keep divers informed through our monthly Newsletter, our Facebook group sharing information about SA Dive Sites Viz and Conditions, and provide a forum for debate on diving issues through our Facebook page.
