About Our Club

Founded in 1995, the Olney Scuba Adventure Dive Club is a social and recreational club with a major focus on SCUBA diving adventures.  With membership in the hundreds, we provide top quality instruction through NAUI and PADI as well as several great group SCUBA vacations, social events, and community service projects.  Club meetings take place monthly at the Olney Aquatic Center in Olney, MD.  If you are an experienced diver, a novice, or just someone curious about the prospect of exploring the ocean from beneath the surface, OSADC welcomes you.  We take great pride in our club and look forward to experiencing the joy of underwater exploration with new friends.

Among our ranks are several NAUI/PADI certified instructors who provide our club with instruction from beginner/open water diving, through advanced stages and continuing education.  And we have one NAUI Course Director, who is qualified to certify all the way up to the level of Instructor. We organize monthly local dives as well as several domestic and international trips.  In the last few years, our club has organized trips to Roatan, Belize, Egypt, Cayman Islands, Bahamas, Maldives, Roatan, Bonaire, Cozumel, Thailand, Hawaii, Cuba, Philippines, Solomon Islands, with more coming!  Local trips include oyster diving in the Patuxent river, local quarries, and weekend wreck diving excursions to the coast of North Carolina.  There's a dive for nearly all interests and skill levels.
