James Cook University is situated adjacent to the Great Barrier Reef National Park, one of the natural wonders of the world. It is home to an extremely diverse array of marine life, from tiny nudibranchs to large pelagics such as humpback whales. Colourful and vibrant coral reefs are located close to our shores. The JCU Dive Club aims to provide a social fun environment in which to SCUBA dive with friends, or learn to dive with one of our PADI certified instructors. The weather in Townsville is perfect for diving with over 300 hundred days of sunshine a year, and there are many world famous dive-sites just off our shores. As well as providing numerous opportunities for diving, the Dive Club also allows divers to meet like-minded people from all over the world who have come to JCU to study. We are a particularly social club, with pub crawls, parties, bar-b-ques, an annual ball and camping trips throughout the academic year.
