Welcome to Waterford Harbour Sub Aqua Club's new
website. We think it is fitting that we are entering the information age just
as we mark the 40th Anniversary of the club. At lot has changed in diving
over the last four decades and there will, no doubt, be plenty of more
change to come.
To remember the years past, we have
published a collection of photographs taken by our club members over the
years. So take a nostalgic trip down memory lane in our online Gallery.
