Severnside Sub-Aqua Club has been a leader in the Bristol diving community since 1969, taking SCUBA diving to new depths and new destinations.
Based in the heart of the historic docks, we’re a very active branch of the British Sub-Aqua Club. We participate in a wide-range of diving activities including shore diving, RIB diving, and charter bookings in the UK, as well as weekend trips, expeditions, and holidays abroad. We are able to offer full training, from complete beginner through to the higher level BSAC diver qualifications.
Whether you’re a complete beginner, have learnt the basics on holiday, or have loads of experience – with BSAC, PADI or any other organisation – you’ll be made very welcome.
