The
Leven SCUBA Club (LSC) is the oldest and at the present time, only
SCUBA dive club operating on Tasmania's North West Coast. Formed in
1978 it's still active and has a small but enthusiastic membership
committed to promoting safe, affordable recreational SCUBA diving.
We are also actively involved in environmental and community activities
which directly or otherwise affect the sport of SCUBA diving and the
marine environment. As well as diving for fun, LSC members help in
harbour cleanups, survey work and many other underwater activities of a
non-commercial nature. We are committed to the conservation of
shipwrecks and other vulnerable dive sites.
The LSC has an ongoing project involving the construction and
maintenance of artificial reefs to promote the growth and retention of
marine habitats on the North West Coast of Tasmania. as well as
responsible and legal fishing practices.
Club members often travel to other dive locations around the state,
usually on the east coast for charters or shore dives. We also try to
support other Tasmanian dive clubs and operators whenever possible and
participate in SCUBA dive community events.
The clubs' name is derived from the Leven River of Ulverstone, where
the LSC was originally formed. Over the years however the membership
has been predominately based in Devonport and this is where the club is
now situated.
Meetings are held at 7:30 PM on the 1st Thursday of each month
(excluding public holidays) at The Mersey Yacht Club - Anchor Dr - East
Devonport
