About your trip

Technical diving courses have three main objectives; to Explore, extend your time underwater, and improve your skill level. 

Although you may have never thought about it, Technical diving can make you a better recreational diver. The introduction and basic level technical courses are not just for technical divers. 

The discipline and attention to detail regarding trim, buoyancy and precision can be a challenge to your average recreational diver. Even if you never plan to dive deeper than 30m/99ft. 


Taking an entry-level technical diving course can transform and revolutionise your diving. You will be introduced to equipment configurations, buoyancy, finning techniques and knowledge that will expand frontiers and truly make you an aquanaut. 

Regardless of the path, you choose to take for Technical diving. Exploring the depths and visiting places very few people have been or simply improving your dive techniques. Give us a call or email us, and we can discuss the options available to ensure you become a guru too.

Luke our founder has been teaching technical diving for 20 years and is a multi Agency Instructor Trainer for Technical Diving
