We recommend, that to better enjoy your dive holiday, recreational divers bring their own gear. This ensures that your mask is moulded to your face, your booties and fins fit you perfectly and that the regulator you choose has the performance rating you require. There is no comfort substitute for properly maintained personal equipment. We cannot recommend strongly enough, that where possible, you bring your own equipment.

However we realise that many of you may have climbed Kilimanjaro, or been on safari and that you don’t want to carry your equipment around with you. If you can bring your own mask fins and regulator, you will increase your comfort levels!

For beginners, long term travellers, intermediate divers on a multi activitiy holiday and students, we have our own, properly maintained equipment. Here is a list of what we have at the time of writing:

*We have Sherwood and Aqualung regulators. All are serviced regularly to international standards.

*We have Cobra and Sherwood Buoyancy Control Devices. We buy top of the range.

*We have 5mm shorty wetsuits made in New Zealand to the highest standards.

*Our fins are Typhoon bootie type, and our 5mm booties are made in New Zealand .

*Our cylinders are Luxfer 10L, 12L aluminums, made in the UK to EU specifications. They are all DIN and INTERNATIONAL fitting. All of our cylinders are visually inspected annually and Hydrostatically tested every four years. (as per UK specifications).

* We have a range of masks and snorkels that we buy from two companies to allow us to have the widest range to fit your face.

*We also have basic underwater cameras for rent and dive computers.
