As we are a club, not a professional dive school, there is just a one-off training fee that covers all the training you will ever do with us. We also have the flexibility to schedule training to your needs and abilities - missed lessons can be repeated, and as much time as necessary can be spent on skills in the pool and open water to ensure that both you and the intructor feel confident in your ability.

The branch also has equipment available for members to use during pool training, and being a club means that there is always likely to be someone willing to lend kit for your initial open water dives. We do however recommend purchasing your own personal equipment for open water use as soon possible - you'll be safest and most comfortable diving in equipment that you know well, fits you well, and is well maintained. But don't worry - you'll find there's no shortage of club members willing to share their experiences, recommendations and expertise when it comes to choosing the right gear!
