PADI Enriched Air Nitrox course July 2018

Posted on May 1, 2018

We will be running the PADI Enriched Air Nitrox Course on Sunday 15th July 2018.

The PADI Enriched Air Diver course is PADI’s most popular specialty scuba diving course, and it’s easy to see why. Scuba diving with enriched air nitrox gives you more no decompression dive time. This means more time underwater, especially on repetitive scuba dives.

We all want to stay longer on that reef or wreck, it isn’t always our breathing rate that brings us up before we want to, often we still have plenty of air left but our No Decompression Limit (NDL) brings us back up.

PADI Boat Diver Specialty of the Month August 2018

Posted on May 1, 2018

As part of our PADI Specialty of the Month programme in 2018, we will be running the PADI Boat Diver Course in August.

The date has not been set just yet as we need to look at tide times and boat availability.

A large proportion of your dives will be accessed by a boat, the PADI Boat Diver Specialty course will equip you with the knowledge of what to expect when diving from boats

This presentation will take place at Club Night on Wednesday 2nd May, please let us know if you are coming along so we know how many of you will be squeezing in to the classroom 😉

Sussex Seasearch

Seasearch is a project for volunteer divers who have an interest in underwater life, want to learn more, and want to help protect the marine environment around the coasts of the UK.

The broad aim of Seasearch is to map the sea bed found in the near-shore zone around the whole of the Britain and Ireland. Additionally, the species encountered on the dives are also recorded, building up a database of where marine life is found.

The Sussex Wildlife Trust coordinates Seasearch in Sussex. We aim to find out more about the marine wildlife of Sussex as well as to learn more about seabed types and identify important sites. Many of our dives are focused on Marine Protected Areas in Sussex.
