Victorian Sub-Aqua Group - VSAG

Based in Melbourne, we dive at least every fortnight, all year round. We have dive trips on every long weekend, plus arrange regular interstate and overseas diving trips. Most dives are from the privately owned boats of our members.

Anyone with a recognised scuba diving qualification is welcome to join VSAG.

VSAG meets at 8:00 pm on the third Thursday of every month at Bells Hotel, corner of Moray Street and Clarendon Streets, South Melbourne (Melway 1D L12). Guest speakers, film and slide presentations are a feature of these meetings. Visitors are always welcome.

So that's what a remora feels like!: by Ric Mingramm; The Rip is the name given to that renowned stretch of water at the entrance to Port Phillip Bay, separating Points Lonsdale and Nepean. This area can be one of the most dangerous stretches of water on our continent, but at times can be so peaceful and calm that one could not envisage the hundreds of ships which have been lost in its vicinity.

The Bends: by Craig; Ask any scuba diver what is the one thing they fear most when diving and they will tell you it is the bends. However, if you get a group of divers together they will no doubt joke that '... we will probably all end up bent sooner or later!'. I myself often joked to friends and family that 'I'll probably just end up bent ...' and like most divers I used to think that it would never happen to me ... but it did. I got bent.
