Join Associate Professor Troy Gaston and his team from the University of Newcastle and explore the depths of Tuggerah Lake!
In this activity, attendees can operate an underwater drone, or remotely operated vehicle (ROV), which allows you to explore beneath the waves of Tuggerah Lake. The ROV footage will be live streamed enabling attendees and participants to see what is lurking beneath the water.
