Company description The Vaqueros Del Mar (“Cowboys of the Sea”) dive club was formed more than 40 years ago with the stated purposes
“… to encourage skin diving, spear fishing and underwater sightseeing for the love of the sport …, to establish training programs to ensure safe practice …, to promote fellowship, sociability and cooperation …, and to promote public good will towards skin diving …”
In addition to monthly meetings, the club tries to organize a variety of events throughout the year including dives, campouts, potlucks, and boat trips. Memorial Day and Labor Day usually find the majority of club members on the north coast of California, particularly at Van Damme, Anchor Bay, or Salt Point. We skin dive for abalone and scuba dive with cameras. In the evening, we usually have a potluck dinner featuring plenty of abalone cooked in various styles.
We typically have an annual Seafood Festival in the summer. The club is also a supporter of nonprofit organizations such as DAN, the Marine Mammal Center, the Pacific Grove Hyperbaric Chamber, the Abalone and Marine Resouce Council, and Point Lobos State Park.
The Annual Awards Banquent provides an opportunity to celebrate the diving year. Typically held in November, awards are presented for photography and sport fishing, and the event generally features outstanding home-grown entertainment.
The VDM NG tries to coordinate a few boat trips each year.
The PhotoGeeks are a special interest group within Vaqueros Del Mar focusing on underwater photography (both still and video). The club is fortunate to have a number of talented amateur photographers who have received numerous awards from photography competitions and who have had pictures published in diving magazines.
