What can we say about Lloyd.  His hair never moves even looks this good when he gets out of the water.  

We have trained Lloyd since his first splash back in 2015 and is yet another confirmed dive nut.  He sailed through to his PADI Instructor Certification and moved up to Master Scuba Diver Trainer in 2018.  He is also a PADI Tec 45 Diver.

Joe first met Kev on a PADI Discover Scuba back in 2012.  Fatal mistake at such a young age!!

He is an Advanced Open Water and Enriched Air Nitrox Diver.

Deciding that Scuba may be a career to follow, on leaving school he was taken on as an apprentice.

He has moved on up a bit form there, through Tec Gas Blending, so he will be mixing your Nitrox and Trimix, and into the workshop. 

Joe is a qualified Technician for APEKS and Scubapro, and a valuable member of the Dive Centre Team.

People have a look at Rocket Dive Charters.  This is Skipper Trev.

All year round we make him take us out every Tuesday and most Thursday evenings.  Then we demand to go diving at weekends as well.

He is always smiling and we love his Burgers!.

Sometimes we make him get under the water as well.
