Sunday 12th May 2013, 10am to 3pm

Come and see a live display of Hard Hat diving as done by divers from the late 1800’s to the mid 1900’s collecting pearl shell around Broome.

See how they are dressed into a sealed diving system weighing 85kg. Watch as they walk to the water and see them enter and walk around in a visually exciting atmosphere. Talk to the divers and have a photo taken behind a cut out of a diver in full dress.

This is the only regularly used Hard Hat diving system in Western Australia by experienced qualified divers. Make sure you bring your camera’s.

Location: Fremantle Sailing Club
151 Marine Terrace, South Fremantle
