The 2024 Western Dive Rally Hosted by Grainne Uaile SAC, took place in Kilcummin,Co. Mayo from the 9th -11th August.
Event : St Patrick's Day Parade
St,Patricks day is always a fun day out with our members dressing up. We will be joining in the parades again this year in both Ballina and Crossmolina with our floats and boats in tow. Be sure to keep an eye out for us.
Snorkelling
We are beginning the new dive season. While its still a bit too cold to dive, we have continued to remain active as a Club over the winter months. We have many members join our weekly snorkel group, hitting the waters to say fit, getting out at the weekend for a refreshing swim to start the day.
Event : Try-A-Dive Sessions
We ran two Try-A-Dive sessions on
Ballina Swimming Pool -
Castlebar -
We had a large turnout on each date, with great excitement all round as many members of the public got to experience diving for the first time.
Some have now joined the Club and are mid way through our Trainnee Course.
