Australia International Dive Expo AIDE

For the 2nd time around, the Australia International Dive Expo 2015 or AIDE 2015, is coming back again to Sydney and be it diving tours, latest dive equipment, gadgets, and diving holiday packages, divers and non-divers are invited to come along to this annual dive expo to learn about the fascinating world of diving.

AIDE 2015 is scheduled from 12-13 September at Moore Park’s Royal Hall of Industries in Sydney, and the second instalment of the Dive Expo promises to be bigger and better this year, with more than 50 exhibitors showcasing and sharing their passion for the sport with the growing Australian dive community.

At the dive trade show, visitors can expect to receive expert tips and advice on the sport, learn about new and existing dive destinations, hear about ongoing trends in the diving world, and also check out the latest diving gear and gadgets. New to the expo is the opportunity for non-divers to sample the sport and other newbies at the on-site pool.

For the try-outs, participants would get an introduction to freediving, including how to learn to hold their breath, and scuba diving, including the basic dive equipment required, before getting geared up to experience a shallow introductory dive themselves.
