DOUTS - University of Technology Sydney

DOUTS is the scuba diving club of the University of Technology, Sydney. Membership is open to UTS students, staff, graduates, and a limited number of invited guests.

DOUTS is Sydney's premier Scuba Diving Club. We are an active club running monthly away trips to destinations up and down the NSW coast, local Sydney dives every weekend and regular interstate and overseas expeditions.

We pursue a wide variety of diving styles and interests; shore, night, photographic, shark, wreck, technical and mixed gas diving are all practiced by our members. We meet regularly for talks, presentations, slide shows and videos as well as social get togethers. Diving is the best way to explore the magnificent wilderness of the ocean depths. Swimming with Humpback whales, playing with the inquisitive giant cuttlefish, frolicking with playful seal pups, studying grey nurse sharks lazily cruising by, diving superb coral walls in unlimited visibility. The richness and diversity of the ocean is boundless - and within our reach!!

Seahorses - Ethereal Beauty Seahorses - Ethereal Beauty
My ultimate diving dream is to meet orcas underwater. While I am waiting for this divine meeting with sea giants, I am fascinated with tiny graceful creatures called Hippocampus. Their name derives from Greek for seahorse and literally translates as horse sea monster.
