The club’ s Chair Nur Tucker( left) introduces guest speaker Kat Zhou popular training, attracting new members eager to learn to dive. The next Ocean Diver course will take place in 2026. We also offer a range of courses, up to and including the Dive Leader course later this year.
As scuba divers, we naturally promote a deeper appreciation for the underwater world, and our overseas diving trips often spark an interest in photography. To build on this, we’ re excited to launch in-house underwater photography courses for our members; led by Nur Tucker, our club Chair, who is also Chair of the British Society of Underwater Photographers( BSoUP). These sessions will include both classroom instruction and practical pool training.
Tell us about your diving?
Our training dives are typically held at Vobster Quay, an inland site in Somerset. While the club doesn’ t dive locally very often, we also use Wraysbury Dive Centre, located west of London, as it’ s an excellent site for beginner divers.
Currently, we don’ t offer drysuit training, as most of our members prefer warm-water trips. The majority of our diving takes place overseas, usually from charter boats.
Club Chair Nur Tucker also serves as Chair for the British Society of Underwater Photographers
