For
divers who wish to experience more challenging conditions
than those offered overseas where they have only dived in
warm and/or clear waters.
Our UK Familiarisation dive will usuallly include a check
out pool dive to assess your level of comfort in the water
as well as your diving skills. Once completed we shall take
you to a local dive site where we will provide you with the
appropriate equipment which will include a thicker wet suit,
hood and gloves.
Upon entering the water you will experience a brief sensation
of coldness as the water enters the suit. Within one minute
you will be comfortable again as your body adapts to the conditions
and the suit traps the now body temperature water against
your skin.
Additionally, the visibility can be poor in the UK so we will
make sure you experience some low visibility to prepare you
for the unexpected on a proper UK dive.
Course Requirements & Location
Ideally watch a UK dive video and have
a 'Refresher'
pool dive if appropriate.
