CLUB AQUASPORT

Diving with our club isn’t like joining one of those other stuffy clubs. We’re all about helping you to enjoy your diving, not being the in-crowd. The object of the club is to ensure that divers conducting their training through Aquasport International have an outlet for group diving activities throughout the year.

What We Offer

Early Bird Renewal Incentives

If you pay your membership on time then you can pick up an added bonus. These vary from time to time but can include some amazing deals on selected PADI Specialty programmes conducted throughout the year saving up to £110! That’s right, all the benefits of six months membership for £60 and we give you £110 straight back…

​

Reduced Kit Hire Rates

You get 50% off normal kit hire fees. Hire for the Thursday club dive will be £10 instead of £15 for full kit and free on a Sunday pool session. And for those of you who already own your gear we are including lightweight travel equipment and specialist equipment such as DPVs and rebreathers in the offer.

​

Club Pool

Free entry to our on site, heated dive pool during our club Sundays which run on the Sunday of every second and fourth full weekend of the month (2pm to 4.30pm). Don’t worry if you don’t have your own equipment, that’s free to club members too, saving you £15 every time you jump in. If you would like to introduce a friend to diving we also offer a free tasters session for club member family and friends (pre-booking is required).

​

Club Barbecue

Yeap, you read that right. We host a Club Aquasport barbecue at least once a month throughout the warmer months, usually on the fourth Sunday to coincide with the club pool. These are at the centre starting at 3pm. This is free for all of our club members and you can even bring family and friends along with you (please do let us know in advance if you are bringing a guest or two).

The regular Thursday club skive dives are running in full swing at Dosthill for both club members and non members. £6 gets you in, £5 with tank and weights and £20 (£10 for club members) for a full set of kit. Dosthill now opens earlier in the afternoon (call them for exact opening times) but we still aim to be there for 6.30pm. Then it’s off to the pub for apres dive!

​

We also offer Diving Workshops on both the Sunday pool sessions and on the Thursday and Friday club dives. These will be free to any member of our club and will consist of sessions aimed at improving your general diving skills, from tweaking your buoyancy to deploying an SMB or practicing free ascents and descents. The level of skills practiced will vary with each divers qualification. Open Water Divers will benefit form the basic skills, whereas Rescue Divers can practice lifts and searches.
