Aquatic Adventures - Rowville
Opened eight years ago, Aquatic Adventures in Rowville was the first store in this franchise of four Victorian dive shops. Damian, who bought the store in 2007, heads a team of enthusiastic, skilled young divers. One of them has even written a book about his aquatic passion: Mick co-authored Victoria's Ship Graveyard, which maps and describes the many wrecks off Victoria's coast.
Shipwrecks are magnets for divers, and the team at Aquatic Adventures Rowville offer the training required to access them - including technical diving courses, which provide certification beyond standard open-water recreational diving. Already a five-star PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors) Instructor Development Centre, in 2006 the store earned the prestigious title of Career Development Centre, one of only four such centres in Australia, and the only one in Victoria. This reflects the team's commitment to not just train divers right up to instructor level, but also to developing their careers in the dive industry. However, they're just as happy taking on absolute beginners and showing them the wonders of life under the sea.
Aquatic Adventures also organise day trips for qualified divers to the Mornington Peninsula every Wednesday and weekend, as well as dive travel interstate and overseas several times a year. On Fridays the modern, spacious store is open late so that its dive club members and other customers can drop in to refill their tanks in readiness for the weekend, perhaps organise a dive buddy, and generally talk about their aquatic passion. Dive club members enjoy benefits such as weekly email updates and discounts, which apply across the Aquatic Adventures network of stores. However, pretty much everything a diver needs, including equipment sales, hire, service and repair, is available at the Rowville store, which serves divers across Melbourne's south-east.
