Deeside Sub-Aqua Club, BSAC906 is the dive club of which I’m a member, there are approx. 40 members & we own a 5.8m RIB. Diving takes place every weekend, weather permitting & some evenings through the week in the summer. New members are always welcome, whether you are a BSAC member or have trained with another agency, we have a few members not affiliated to BSAC. Current members range from BSAC Ocean Divers to open circut Trimix divers & closed circut Inspiration divers. If you have never dived before we can provide you with instructors to teach you.

Aberdeen Royal Infirmary Hyperbaric Medicine Unit is probably the finest in the UK, due to the offshore oil industry being based in the North East of Scotland. I have seen their set up at close hand & met some of the staff, thankfully though I never needed the use of their chamber. This is a very informative & interesting site, well worth a visit

Aberdeen Watersports is one of two dive shops in Aberdeen; their web site has a lot of very interesting articles worth reading. It is a well-stocked shop with easy parking, air fills to 300bar along with Nitrox & Trimix. They also run a RIB shuttle service covering the North East of Scotland, but as I’ve never used this service I am unable to comment.
