What's on next,
Club dives are fun and open to all certified divers, even if you trained with another agency. Non-club members are very welcome to dive as a visitor twice.
If you've not dived in a while, we will arrange a refresher pool session before you go back into the sea. If you are new to UK diving, then you'll be with an experienced buddy.
These dives are an easy shore dive with lots to see, followed by a good cafe brunch (vegetarian choices are available). It's a 'dive for fun' at a relatively easy site. It's perfect if you've been out of the water for a while, or just want to practice with unfamiliar kit. More info from Sally Richards, Andy Laird or via the club Contact page.
They are easy, safe dives, and go on all year round. Use the contact page if you want more details.
CLUB DIVES. Sun 1st Nov, Sat 7th Nov (NIGHT DIVE), and Sun 6th Dec..
We dive all year round – (2 or 3 times a week during the summer) but we have an ‘open’ club dive on the first Sunday in the month. These dives are open to non-members, provided you’re a certified diver. The sea is warm now, so it’s easy to get a 60 minute dive in a 7mm semi-dry suit. If it’s been calm, then underwater viz can be amazing because the sediment settles and there’s no plankton in the water. If you’re certified, and fancy a dive, come and join us. Use the contact us page if you don’t get club e-mails and want an invite. Open to all qualified divers, though if you’ve not dived recently we’ll ask you to do a pool refresher session first. Visitors can now only have 2 ‘free club’ dives (nb there’s a small fee for any kit hire).
The club dive is an opportunity for experienced divers to pass on their knowledge to novice divers. It’s also great to dive with someone that isn’t your usual dive buddy.
Use the contact form if you want more information.
Would club members hiring kit please note that (unless they’ve made prior arrangements) it’s their responsibility to rinse and return the kit on the Sunday. Thanks,
NEW**. Kit hire – these are the new rates from 1st Nov 2026
Exeter BSAC Members £3 per item (up to a maximum of £18)
Non-Members £6 per item (up to a maximum of £36)
Also, because we are a very busy club, members have priority on dives, so the Diving Officer has now limited visitors to only 2 (free shore*) dives with the club. (* kit hire charges apply).
Weather permitting …… there’s usually someone diving midweek – and certainly at weekends. These are usually shore dive – which are very easy and keep the costs down. Some club members manage over 100 dives every year, and we’re lucky to have several good local dive sites. Exeter BSAC has Facebook and WhatsApp groups to help people find buddies. If conditions are good, then we simply go and dive 🙂
Friday 13th November 2026 – Our annual music quiz.
A fun evening, and a team event, so no one looks silly if you don’t know any of the answers. Don’t worry if you’re not in a team, for we’ll be sorting teams out on the evening. This event was a sell out last year, and tickets will be on sale 2 months before the quiz. It’s sensible to make a note of this date in your diary.
