Welcome my new NUDIES, and welcome back to my old NUDIES! Here is the official heads up about or first big trip of the year, the traditional Seal Rocks Camping/Diving Trip!
This trip will start on Saturday 10th of March, arriving at the gear store no later than 7:45am to pack the gear and organise cars, and we should be back at the store at or before 5pm on Sunday 11th. This trip will involve two dives over two days at Seal Rocks, a shore dive to an island off a beautiful beach, an hour and a half drive up the coast.
This dive is quietly famous for it’s turtles, rays, dolphins and Grey Nurse, Port Jackson and Wobbegong sharks, so you’re bound to see something good on one or both of your dives! The dives will be led by our very own NUDES divers, who have dived the site more times than we can count, so any level of experience is welcome – we’ll look after you even if it’s your first dive out of training.
In between dives, we’ll be camping at Treachery Camp site, and once curfew kicks in at 10, after dinner, we’ll commence our time-honoured migration to the nearest beach, where we will spend the rest of the night doing as uni student do.
Studying. Obviously.
Next morning we strike camp, those of us who are feeling up to another dive will swim off our morning “sleepiness” from staying up late "studying", before re-loading the cars and heading home.
Ticket price covers transport, food, camping fees and two air refills.
We'll be carpooling, so if you've got a car you're willing to drive with passengers and/or gear, make sure to buy a "driver" ticket, so we know the numbers. Fuel will be reimbursed.
What to bring:
- Towel and swimmers, sunscreen and hat. There are only two places to buy some limited food, so we will provide dinner and breakfast (we cater for vegan diets!), but you are resposible for any other food for the weekend.
- Camping equipment: Tent, sleeping mat, sleeping bag, pillow. Tents can be hired from the Mountaineering club (must be a NUMC member) or often cheap tents are avaiable from Kmart.
Any questions, send me an email at cooperwalters217@gmail.com
Get keen my dudes!
