Dive Territory, located in Darwin, is a sports club dedicated to providing individuals with the opportunity to learn and experience the joy of scuba diving. The club's primary focus is on teaching proper training and safety techniques to ensure all divers are prepared for the unique hazards that can arise when exploring the depths of the ocean.
With an understanding that scuba diving presents a range of dangers, Dive Territory emphasises the importance of training for all expeditions. From wreck diving to cave diving, the club recommends the use of a buddy system to enhance safety during these more challenging dives. Even night diving, which can be exhilarating, requires the use of primary and secondary dive torches to signal others in case of an emergency.
The club also emphasises the importance of understanding and properly utilising diving equipment. Foggy masks can be a common issue, but Dive Territory provides tips on how to prevent it. The selection of appropriate diving boots for different circumstances is discussed to ensure foot protection. Proper use of a buoyancy compensator is taught to enhance control and reduce effort during dives.
In addition, the club emphasises that familiarising oneself with equipment and taking necessary precautions before diving is crucial for safety.
Dive Territory recognises the significance of using dive watches or dive computers to avoid decompression sickness, and emphasises the importance of selecting the right diving suits for comfort and safety. For those interested in deep diving, the club provides guidance on equipment navigation and safety at extreme depths.
The club acknowledges that scuba diving and snorkelling offer individuals an opportunity to witness a world that few will ever experience. However, they also stress that without proper training and knowledge, this world can be fraught with hidden dangers. The Dive Territory website is dedicated to providing individuals with the tools and information required to embark on a safe and awe-inspiring underwater journey.
Dive Territory welcomes suggestions, tips, corrections, and comments from divers to enhance the overall experience for everyone involved. While they strive to make scuba diving as safe as possible, they do not accept responsibility for accidents or financial disadvantages that may occur.
