CCARP - Central Coast Artificial Reef Project www.ccarp.net
This organisation obtained Government permission for the sinking of the ex HMAS Adelaide II off Terrigal as a diving wreck and artificial reef. 11 years work has paid off and the sinking date was on 13th April 2011.
The Central Coast Artificial Reef Project - CCARP has a new domain name www.ccarp.net and have been successful in the final hurdle in the sinking of the ex HMAS Adelaide for a dive wreck and artificial reef.
The sinking date was on 13th April 2011 and the wreck will be located about one kilometre south east off the coast at Terrigal and will be a boon to tourism for Terrigal & the Central Coast.
The Central Coast Marine Discovery Centre
To compliment this the State Government has allocated funds for a new location for the Central Coast Marine Discovery Centre www.ccmdc.org.au at the old Terrigal Tourism Office on Terrigal Drive. The date for opening was on 16th Jan 2010.
Renewed interest in the two local Non-Profit SCUBA Clubs in the area is underway.
Terrigal Underwater Group
Terrigal Underwater Group - TUG - http://terrigalunderwatergroup.com
This club is locally based.
Brisbane Water Aqualung Group
Brisbane Water Aqualung Group - BWAC - www.bwac.com.au which SCUBA dives the whole of the Central Coast from Broken Bay to Norah Head.
