LUSAC was founded over 30 years ago and still has got some of the founder members within the club.

In the early days divers used wetsuits and small single-cylinder SCUBA-equipment. Diving was conducted using a small inflatable boat.

Over the years the club has expanded from these humble beginnings and now is on the leading edge of diving technology. Almost all divers use dry-suits, dive multilevel profiles, with dive computers. There are both, Nitrox and Trimix, Mixed gas divers within the club and some Rebreather divers.
