Tek instructors in Melbourne, Australia

[robcap]

So, I am moving from "around the world" to Melbourne.
Does anybody know the tek diving scene there?
I am a rec scuba instructor, nitrox instructor, SCR instructor.
It's time to go tek now. Step by step, with no hurry.
Who would you recommend?
Any suggestion in welcome.
Thank you
ciao

Rob, I dive with aquatic adventures in Glen Iris (google).

Not ready to go to tech yet, but I know they have a tech school, TDI courses, etc. Something I will definetely consider once I am more experienced.

Try asking this question on diveoz.com.au

I would suggest looking at getting in touch with Mark Ryan from Aquability in Mentone. He is a TDI tech instructor up to adv trimix.

He is heavily involved in marine archeology and is a member of Southern Ocean Explorers who locate and dive wrecks around Victoria.

thank you!
Reached Melbourne finally, and today I got my long term visa.
Next step is finding a place to stay, then I will start checking the diving scene ...

not sure where you will be staying, but aquability is about 20 - 30 mins max out of the CBD even closer if your staying somewhere like St Kilda. Go to Aquability Australia Scuba Diving Training Centre for their contact details.

It's easy to located as well. You just go up St kilda Rd, which turns in the Neapean Hwy and stay on that.

Hope you enjoy Melbourne, I think you'll love it! PM if you want any info on good places to stay, eat out etc.

Cheers
