BAUE Home Page

BAUE is a non-profit organization dedicated to the exploration and conservation of our planet's underwater regions. Most of our activities take place in Northern California. To achieve our goals, we apply the philosophy, standards, and procedures of diving originated by George Irvine and Jarrod Jablonski, and taught through Global Underwater Explorers.

Photos and videos are the best ways to help share our passion with the world. We are blessed with a lot of talented photographers and videographers. We recommend you visit our gallery for the most recent photos and videos.

	Reports are another way we share our diving experiences with the world. We have set up a system that allows members to submit trip reports as well as information on dive sites and dive boats. All of this information is searchable in a number of different ways. Go ahead and give it a try!. If you would like to discuss any of the trip reports, you can visit the BAUE Trip Reports Forum and post a question or comment. Here are some of the most recent reports: 1/23/2010 Ballbuster by Kenn Hwang -- A couple of great dives, the first at Ballbuster and the second at Anchors 2 & 3. One had huge surge and the entire pacific coast sea nettle population, the other was calm and mellow. 1/17/2010 Ballbuster by Mark Lloyd -- Ballbuster Deep on the Escapade 1/16/2010 E3 by Clinton Bauder -- Nice diving before the storm, for those that went diving anyway.

Projects are a core component of BAUE's mission. Recently BAUE completed the 2008 Thumbs Up Project at Point Lobos. The project goal was to provide training, develop our skills, and mentor any new project team members. We built upon last years lessons and over two days captured survey data, video data, and photographic data of the Thumbs Up area. For more information, please visit the Thumbs Up Project Page.
