Club Meetings
Our club meetings are held

together with a few new faces who we hope will now become regular visitors to
our meetings. To see a list of proposed events please click

Well Done Carl
Another new IDC Staff Instructor - well done

and wish him all the success in his new forthcoming ventures across with
our colonial friends. Good luck Tom.
We have just run yet another one of our very
popular rescue courses at Blue Lagoon. We will be running another Rescue course
shortly, if anyone is interested in undertaking this certification. To see some

We have just returned from a fun packed dive
week. The diving was as good as ever and the Thistlegorm was just spectacular.

Pool Sessions 
We have access to pool sessions every
week on Saturday evenings. The Saturday session is a 3 metre pool. So why not
come along to try out new kit or hone up your skills before going onto open
water. These sessions are proving to be very popular indeed. If you would like
to use the pool please contact the dive centre a few days in advance.
Mid-week at Stoney Cove

Anyone who has spare time during the week and
would like to go diving at Stoney or the Blue Lagoon, please contact the Dive
Centre.
Weekends
We also hope to be running lots of dive trips
to locations throughout the UK and updates of these outings will be posted on
the notice board in the Dive Centre. Even on weekends that we are conducting
training we have plenty of staff members who are willing to take people diving
at Stoney Cove or Blue Lagoon whilst we are there. Lets go diving.
We were at Blue Lagoon recently conducting a
Night Diver Specialty Course and had very good dives in excellent visibility and
encountered loads of Perch, Carp and Newts. We are available to run this
course October to March. We will have members of staff available to act as
buddies if anyone is interested in tagging along for a guided dive and have a
different kind of dive to put in your logbook.
Congratulations to our latest group of SEALS.
They have just recently finished their Seal Team training and are hopefully
going to continue on to their Master Seal qualification. The Seal Team program
is open to youngsters of 8 years old up to 12 years of age and consists of pool
based aquamissions that are designed to get young people into diving. To see
some images of these Seals please click HERE

We also hope to be running
lots of dive trips to locations throughout the U.K. Updates of these
outings will be posted on the notice board in the dive centre. Even on the
weekends that we are conducting training we have plenty of staff members who are
willing to take people diving at Stoney Cove or Blue Lagoon whilst we are there.
We had an excellent trip up
to the Farnes and were blessed with good weather and flat calm sea conditions.
Put these factors together with a fantastic boat, experienced skipper and superb
visibility and all those who were lucky enough to go on this trip had an
experience to remember for a long time. A full trip report with photographs will
be appearing soon. In the mean time to see a few images click
HERE
We had a fantastic time at one
our favourite dive spots with good weather and sea conditions. Some of our party
were making their first ever boat dives in the north sea. All coped really well
and a great time was had by all who attended. To see some photographs of our
trips to St.Abbs click
HERE.
This event was a resounding
success with a good time being had by all. To see just a few pictures of how
things went please click on the link above.
Diving some of the most stunning
wrecks and reefs you will come across. Night dive the Thistlegorm, diving the
Salem. Truly special. Have a look at the photos.
