Our branch (No. 0187) was formed in 1963 and currently
boasts a membership of 42. This is a mixture of various diving grades, providing a good blend of diving skills, from Trainees,
Ocean and Sports Divers through to the more advanced grades of Dive Leader and Advanced Diver. Many of our more advanced
divers are also nationally qualified instructors, we currently have 2 Open Water Instructors. A number of our members
have attended the external courses run by the BSAC in various topics.
For the newcomers there are lake or beach dives and shallow water dives on some of the inshore reefs, where
there is much to see. This is quickly followed by dives from the club boat. For the more experienced divers there are exciting
wrecks to explore in some of the deeper water offshore. If you enjoy underwater photography, then a dive on one of the natural
and/or artificial reefs with their plethora of marine life, will give you plenty to smile about..
Each year we arrange a club family holiday to a location in the UK , which takes place in the early summer.
For the more experienced divers there are trips to some of the more remote diving locations both in the UK and abroad.
