Recreational Dive Training

Bespoke, small group and individual Diver Training done with a Backplate and Long-hose.

Please contact us for recreational diver training, prices and durations are listed below, but need to be considered guidelines more than anything.

Recreational Dive Training with us is done a little bit different.

• We DON'T put you on your knees and teach you skill by skill of a check list
• We DON'T repeat everyting in the open water like in the pool and then swim you in a circle and pass you

Instead we take a little different approach:
1. We make sure you can deal with mask and reg skills
2. We work on your in water comofort and control
3. After you are happy to fin and hover we teach additional skills
4. We put great emphasis on team diving
5. We teach you skills in a style that will always be relevant no matter how far you take your diving

COURSES TAUGHT - DURATION - PRICE

OPEN WATER DIVER

We love teaching new Open Water Divers, we used to offer PADI Open Water but now exclusively offer the RAID and SDI progammes.

The course will be taught in a wing and backplate setup with a long hose regulator, we feel this is the best platform to learn in for those wanting to excell and progess their diving down the road, the transition to Twinset diving for example will be almost seamless.

Courses are taught over a few evening pool sessions but mostly in the waters of Capernwray (Carnforth) for a more realistic environment. Class sizes are limited to 2 clients to ensure a high degree of personal attention. This is not your average Open Water course, it's far more in depth, with nearly double the contact time with you instructor that you would get elsewhere.

PRICE £650 - DURATION 3-4 DAYS
ADVANCED OPEN WATER DIVER

We offer the SDI Advanced Diver Program, or the RAID Advanced35 course.

The difference is that the SDI program requires you to have done 25 dives and a few specialties before recognition is given, we do that with a skill tune up and in water assesement.

The RAID Advanced35 course is unlike a traditional Advanced Open Water Diver course, instead of giving you 5 tasters of different specialties you are taught how to dive deeper safely, and given an introduction to various facets of diving, anything taught is accumulative and a passing score is only achieved if all elements are mastered.

PRICE £650 - DURATION 3-4 DAYS
