What's a Try Dive all about?
A typical Try Dive involves poolside tuition on diving techniques and equipment, followed by a scuba dive in a swimming pool with a BSAC-qualified instructor to make sure you get maximum enjoyment from your first scuba dive.
A Try Dive can help you save time and money by finding out in advance if you like diving.

What our Try Divers say ★★★★★
The team at BSAC helped me find my local club for a Try Dive session and I had a really good experience. The members of the club are indeed very friendly and welcoming. Alan, the club contact, has been quick to respond to any emails and was a patient and encouraging instructor. Altogether it was an enjoyable evening.
