Come and dive with friends

‘Learning to dive with HWSAC was one of the best decisions we ever made. We've enjoyed amazing diving across the UK and all over the world ever since - and it all started with a try dive at Wycombe pool. I had to be one of the most nervous students ever but with the patience and encouragement of the lovely training team I soon mastered my fears and all the skills needed for safe and happy diving. Better still we've made lifelong friends to enjoy it all with.’ 

‘HWSAC was a great place to learn to dive for the first time. They were enormously helpful, knowledgeable and keen to help others learn.’

‘Since I joined fresh out of PADI school everyone has been really friendly and helpful in continuing to extend my diving horizons. Training in the pool and various open water sites combined with regular trips round the UK have been fantastic to showcase what UK diving has to offer.’

'We are back from our dive trip to Roatan, which was amazing - highly recommend it - we can tell you all about it next time we see you at the club. We just wanted to drop you a quick line to say a big thank you for the thoroughness of our training!! We felt well prepared and confident to dive the way we'd been taught - e.g. doing a buddy check even though no one else was doing one! We think the safety focus of the training meant we felt more relaxed and confident in the water and to us, the BSAC training is the gold standard, having previously done both PADI and SSI. If in doubt, we would say to each other "what would Len/Amanda/Chris do?" Thanks guys!'

‘Feedback from a Diving Holiday after learning to dive with HWSAC. There were 3 days I dived without Nick (ear troubles) & I had your advice echoing in my head as I politely, but firmly, suggested my buddy talked me through her kit. I could see her thinking "oh yeah, buddy system". We had the confidence to sort ourselves out, adjust our depth to stay within our personal limits, monitor our own gas, figure out what on earth our computers were telling us (not easy!), question kit niggles, tinker with our weighting, hold hands in strong current and generally be independent. When I was warned my inflator could be sticky I knew exactly how I'd handle it (fortunately it was fine). Meanwhile we saw turtles, dolphins, rays, a seahorse, swam amongst shoals of dory and so much more. Totally hooked. You guys have been awesome all the way through and we'll keep saying thank you because all of you who give your time and experience so generously are brilliant.’

'Excellent place to learn to dive or keep fresh on skills, broad range of divers and equipment available with free air fill for members'

'Did a try dive yesterday. Introduced by a friend who has been a member of BSAC for years. My first time ever scuba diving. Adam was a great instructor, super clear and really encouraging. Had a blast and really keen to do some more, so I’ll definitely be back!'

'I went on a try dive with a mate and we had a great time, they were all really friendly and Adam is a really professional instructor, making you feel very at ease. We're definitely going again. I highly recommend having a go.'

'I decided at the start of the new year I wanted to learn how to scuba diving and found out they offer classes at the High Wycombe leisure centre which is where I go to the gym. After emailing Len to book the try dive, I met my instructor Adam at reception who took me poolside to talk me through the agenda of the night, the equipment, safety, signals etc. We started with snorkelling which I was totally new to and did struggle a bit but Adam helped me through it. Then came the highlight of the night which was putting on the (quite heavy) tank on your inflatable vest and going down into the water. I must say breathing through the mouthpiece is a lot easier than the snorkel tube. The instructors are constantly by your side always asking if you're ok and are very clear when explaining things to you. I would definitely recommend HWSAC and the try dive and I am going on to do the Ocean Diver course with them'
