25.01.2022 We've shared it before and we'll share it again! We love this creative artificial reef - if you want to see an artificial reef and dive wreck off Sydney please like and follow our page to find out more about how to support our campaign
24.01.2022 With increasing public knowledge and interest in shipwrecks having one off Sydney seems like the perfect, eco friendly tourist attraction. Preserving history instead of sending it for scrap! What do you think?
21.01.2022 Gorgeous photo of the ex-HMAS Adelaide, like this site up the coast our proposed dive wreck has the potential of 100+ years of useful life. With very low post sinking costs, high economic benefit, and significant recreational, research and environmental benefits for years to come. Put your voice behind the campaign by writing to your local MP, it can really make all the difference! We've made it really easy - find a sample letter here: https://www.sydneydivewreck.com.au/support-us/
21.01.2022 Amazing shipwreck inspiration here! If you'd like to see a Dive Wreck for Sydney make sure to write to your representative to ask them to support the bill when it goes to Parliament
21.01.2022 Come and join us and the Mayor of Randwick Danny Said at Coogee family fun day, an opportunity to sign the petition and discuss with our volunteers any questions you have
19.01.2022 Anecdotally all divers will tell you about the amazing marine life found on wrecks and this study provides evidence that artificial reefs, placed on bare sand like our proposed site, are good for fishing stocks in the area! Prof Iain Suthers is an scientific adviser to the Sydney Dive Wreck committee and ensures our proposal is scientifically and environmentally sound. Let us know in the comments if you're more interested in the environmental benefits, the tourism benefits or the chance to dive a new site...
14.01.2022 Very sad to hear about the cancellation of the Ocean Lovers Festival, these are scary times and we need to do what we can to keep everyone safe. If you would like to sign our petition for a Dive Wreck off Sydney please send us a PM with your email and we will send you the file to download, sign and post back to us.
14.01.2022 We cannot get our dive wreck without full commitment from the NSW government. Put your voice behind the campaign by writing to your local MP, it can really make all the difference! We've made it really easy - find a sample letter here: https://www.sydneydivewreck.com.au/support-us/
14.01.2022 Exploring the ex HMAS Adeladie with Nays Baghai, 2020 winner of the Best Australian documentary at the Sydney Film Festival. An atmospheric taster of what wreck diving locally can be like! Please like our page to be kept informed and support a Dive Wreck for Sydney
13.01.2022 Thanks for the support Aussie Bubbles, as you say a boat in Sydney would provide research opportunities for local universities, an artificial reef structure providing habitats and shelter for a range of species, plus a boost to local tourism! Sounds like a win, win, win to us
13.01.2022 This time next week we'll be down at Bondi gathering signatures. Put it in your diary to come by for a chat and to add your name to our supporters if you haven't already

12.01.2022 In our last post we talked about the effect artificial reefs, like wrecks, can have on sealife. This amazing clip filmed on the the ex-HMAS Brisbane last month shows just how magical that makes diving these sites! Comment if you'd love to do this dive
10.01.2022 Feeling inspired by this article and sad that there are currently no wrecks in Sydney within recreational diving limits that I can get some practice in on. Support a Dive Wreck for Sydney and let us know in the comments where you took your favourite wreck shots
09.01.2022 A great article exploring many of the advantages we're also seeking in Sydney. As they say "A ship sold for scrap will yield a one-time, short-term dividend, a ship sunk as an artificial reef will provide dividends for over 100 years as an abundant fishing ground and also give back millions of dollars in foreign revenue to the country from the tourist divers who come to visit the wreck"
07.01.2022 The advantage of a purpose sunk wreck is it can be cleaned and made safe for divers first. This means that wildlife are safe to use the artificial reef from the beginning.
