What are we like?

FBUC offers a relaxed social environment and excellent company as you get immersed in the best cool-water diving in the world. Cape Town diving is fabulous and our members have been getting underwater around the Cape Peninsula for years... and years... and years!
Our History

Founded many moons ago (we are the oldest scuba club in South Africa), False Bay folks are a bunch of excellent divers who tackle the cool waters around Cape Town with great glee, as often as the conditions permit.
