Dive Balham and Dive Wimbledon were started in 2003. Having travelled and taught diving extensively around the world we chose to set up a dive school in south London in response to a lack of top quality teaching here. As we continue in our 22nd year Dive Wimbledon goes from strength to strength, providing excellent scuba tuition at competitive rates. Diving should be fun, it is a sport and therefore should be taught properly and thoroughly. If good habits are adopted early then you will be a safer diver and gain greater enjoyment through increased confidence in your own ability. Our aim is to ensure the highest quality of diver education with the maximum enjoyment.
We are always pleased to help with enquiries, contact us today, we'd love to hear from you.
Roger and Jane, as well as all the staff at Dive Balham and Dive Wimbledon have passed their annual HSE dive medicals and adhere to the very strict UK HSE standards at all times.
