Deep Blue Scuba, based in Edinburgh, Scotland, is a leading PADI 5 Star Instructor Development Centre (IDC). Led by passionate volunteers, this dive centre caters to everyone, from beginners to those aiming to become dive instructors. They stick to strict PADI standards for safe and enjoyable diving.
James and his team at Deep Blue Scuba offer an array of PADI courses, but that's just the beginning. They also organise regular scuba trips around Scotland and beyond. As a buzzing dive club, they welcome divers of all experience levels. Their top-tier PADI instructors are eager to help everyone improve their skills. The club's regular training sessions and dive trips make it easy for divers to keep learning and growing.
For gear, Deep Blue Scuba has you covered with high-quality equipment for hire, perfect for newcomers who aren't ready to invest in their own kit. Their partnership with Edinburgh Diving Centre, the city's oldest dive shop, ensures you have access to the best gear.
The club's Facebook page is a great way to connect with other divers, find dive buddies, and stay updated on diving opportunities. Whether it's shore dives, day boat dives, or overnight trips, James ensures there’s always a variety of diving adventures on offer, fostering a strong sense of community.
Memorable trips? They've had plenty. Like diving in Scapa Flow, where Aimee celebrated her 100th dive, James his 300th, and Bungie an impressive 500th. Or exploring Farnes, especially thrilling during seal pup season.
Loch Long is one of their key training sites, offering spectacular views and rich marine life just two hours from Edinburgh. Visibility can vary, but the dives are always exciting.
