Join us at Ocean Fest 2008 as we celebrate diving and adventure sports in the fabulous outdoor location of Ft. Lauderdale, FL.In addition to boasting the most comprehensive artificial reef system in the United States, Broward County and Ft. Lauderdale have one of the only living reefs in the Continental United States that is accessible from shore. Ft. Lauderdale is world-reknown for its beaches and waterways, as well as a youthful population that enjoys an active lifestyle.
This event will feature over 1500 dive and adventure sports related exhibits under giant tents at the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. In addition to the dive exhibits, there will be food vendors, beverage vendors, music, fashion shows, free seminars and thousands of dollars in prizes and raffles!
In an effort to introduce the sport to new participants, there will be scuba introductory courses taught at the DEMA Pool. An underwater treasure hunt will be held on Saturday for dive boats, and again on Sunday for shore diving. Thousands of dollars in prizes will be given away. The main prize will be announced in the near future.
A portion of the proceeds from Ocean Fest will benefit numerous non-profit and environmental organizations.
