BSAC Supports the North West Dive Festival!

We’re proud to be supported by BSAC – the British Sub-Aqua Club, the UK’s national governing body for scuba diving and snorkelling. With decades of experience, world-class training programmes, and a vibrant club culture, BSAC plays a vital role in the UK diving community — and we’re thrilled to have them at the North West Dive Festival!

Sea & Sea is Joining the North West Dive Festival!

We’re thrilled to welcome Sea & Sea to the North West Dive Festival! For underwater photographers and videographers, this is huge — Sea & Sea is a global leader in underwater imaging, delivering gear that captures the magic of the deep in crystal-clear detail.

Diving with the Injured are coming

At Diving with the Injured, we believe that recovery isn’t limited to hospital walls—it can also happen under the waves. We are a powerful community initiative supporting injured veterans and patients from across the UK by introducing them to the world of scuba diving. Whether it’s helping to rebuild physical strength, overcome trauma, or simply experience the freedom that comes with being weightless in the water, our diving programme offers something truly life-changing.
