We know about diving Australia and beyond !
If you have been looking for diving information on the internet, you would have stumbled over a website called underwater.com.au – a project we started in 2002 and a website that has become the most visited diving website in Australasia. Have a look at all the articles, photo galleries and massive amounts of information. underwater australasia also runs an annual underwater photo competition.
We are also the creators of the Underwater Festival™ which has been growing steadily in popularity over the 9 years we have held it. The first 3 years it was held in Byron Bay, the 4th year on Christmas Island and form year 5 it has become an Australasia wide event of huge proportions to then go global in its last year as the Underwater Project – after 9 years we finally retired this event.
