Established in September 2013 by Founder Mark Tozer, Dive for Cancer has created a unique identity for itself, pioneering a new and exciting way to draw financial aid for cancer research in Australia
This year’s event will be held on Sunday, March 26th, along the Port Noarlunga Reef. Located off the coast of South Australia, this unique temperate reef system is an ideal spot for snorkelers and scuba divers alike. Home to over 200 species of marine plants and animals, and more than 50 species of fish, it is an ideal place to observe the wonders of the underwater world. It is also a popular spot for scuba diving training and each summer more than 1,000 divers come to explore the reef.
The Dive for Cancer event will include prize giveaways, silent and live auctions, guest speakers, lunch at the Port Noarlunga Life Saving Club, and all donations going to the Cancer Council South Australia. Oceanpro has donated a top of the range Osprey F400 Regulator (with occy, pressure gauge and regulator bag) as an auction prize. There are lots of other great prizes up for grabs too.
