About Meyerton Scuba Diving Club
Your gateway to the underwater world in the Vaal Triangle.
Our Story
Registered as a CMAS training facility in October 1992, Meyerton Scuba Diving Club was founded by Jan and Gillian Vorster and has been active ever since. Situated in Meyerton, we are the link between Johannesburg and the rest of the Vaal Triangle, conveniently located closest to the well-known Bass Lake.
We specialize in dive outings, both local and abroad. However, our adventurous spirit often leads us to embark on other activities such as sky-diving, paintball, gliding, paragliding, and other adventures required by our members.
When doing qualification dives, all members are welcome to join us. We host events like the "Polar Bear Weekend" in the middle of winter, regular sea outings, and we organize overseas trips occasionally or on demand.
Dive Smarter, Dive Safer
Safety isn't just a rule; it's our culture. We build awareness and procedures into every outing to ensure every diver returns with a smile.
The 3B Protocol
Whether you’re training or joining a fun dive, you’ll know the plan, your buddy, and the limits. We treat preparation as part of the adventure because that’s what keeps everyone confident underwater.
Depth, time, and turnaround points are clear before you enter the water.
Checks, maintenance logs, and pre-dive drills are part of every session.
Controlled practice keeps confidence high and reduces stress underwater.
Built Around People
Meyerton Scuba is more than just a training facility; it's a family of explorers.
Socials that connect
Regular braais, weekends away, and post-dive meetups are where the real stories are told.
Buddy matching
We help pair divers for training and fun dives, ensuring nobody ever has to dive alone.
Planning support
Get gear advice, logistics help, and trip prep from our most experienced members.
Mentorship
New divers get personal guidance and encouragement from those who have seen it all.
Confédération Mondiale des Activités Subaquatiques
Founded in January 1959 in Monaco, CMAS (World Underwater Federation) is the oldest international diving federation. It was established to gather all underwater disciplines under one roof, with the legendary Jacques-Yves Cousteau serving as its founding President.
As a CMAS training facility, Meyerton Scuba offers certifications that are recognized and respected worldwide. We uphold the rigorous standards set by this historic organization, ensuring you receive the highest quality of underwater education.
