100% SAFETY RECORD

Rest assured, diving is a very safe sport. However, it is important to follow the rules and remember your training. The most dangerous diver is one who has become over-confident or blasé about the sport and starts to bend the safety rules.

We are proud of our 100% safety record. When diving with us, we are responsible for all divers on the boat. We will never advocate diving alone, exceeding limits or flouting other rules which are in place to ensure diver safety.

We encourage all divers to plan to complete a safety stop (5 metres for 3 minutes) on all dives whatever the depth. Why? It is great for practising your buoyancy skills and ensures that you keep a safe reserve of air left for the extra 3 minutes at the end of your dive.

We promote safe diving practises. If you own a boat and plan your own dive trips you need to have a responsible attitude and consider maritime safety guidelines.
