Come and join the Oxford University Underwater Exploration Group (OUUEG) for an exciting Scuba Diving event! OUUEG is not your ordinary sports club – it's a community of around 70 divers, including students, staff, and alumni of the University of Oxford, as well as individuals who are not affiliated with the University. Established in 1963, OUUEG proudly holds the title of being one of the oldest dive clubs in the UK.
Being a recognised University Sports club and an official branch of the British Sub-Aqua Club (BSAC), OUUEG offers a vibrant diving experience for divers of all levels. Whether you're a beginner eager to explore the underwater world or a seasoned diver seeking new adventures, OUUEG has got you covered. They provide diving and skills development courses at all levels, ensuring that there's something for everyone.
The club's diving activities are not limited to the local waters, as they organise both weekend trips along the breathtaking south coast and longer expeditions to more remote parts of the UK and even abroad. OUUEG dives all year round, allowing divers to indulge in their passion regardless of the season.
If you're worried about gear, don't fret! OUUEG has an extensive range of SCUBA equipment available for hire, even for their larger expeditions. All the equipment is neatly stored in their kit hut at the Iffley Sports Centre, so you can rest assured that you'll be well-equipped for your diving adventures.
But wait, there's more! The club is the proud owner of “Seahorse,” a magnificent 5.8m Tornado RHIB.
