Kevin Evans, the organiser, wants to share some exciting news with the sports community. Teign Diving Centre, nestled in Teignmouth, Devon, along with its additional centre and dive boat in Plymouth, has grown to be one of the largest PADI Diving Centres in the UK. If you're interested in diving, they've got you covered—from beginners diving into the PADI Open Water Diver course to advanced divers aiming for PADI instructor status.
Kevin points out that for those eager to explore the underwater world, Teign Diving Centre arranges regular dives to the wrecks and reefs of Lyme Bay and Torbay. The dive sites have something for everyone, with depths ranging from 6m to over 60m, making it ideal for divers of all levels.
With one of the largest dive shops in the South West, Teign Diving Centre provides everything you might need. They stock a wide array of dive gear from top manufacturers, and there's even an online shop for convenience. Plus, they offer air, nitrox, and trimix, alongside a service and repair centre to keep your equipment in top shape.
Kevin highlights the centre's active and friendly dive club, boasting over 100 members. They regularly organise club nights in Teignmouth and Plymouth, perfect for meeting fellow divers, sharing experiences, and learning more about diving.
Popular dive sites include the SS Greleen, a cargo vessel sunk in 1917 in Lyme Bay, and the Orestone, a reef and drift dive surrounded by kelp-covered rock. For those seeking a deeper adventure, the SS Ursa, a deep wreck dive standing proudly on the seabed, is a must-visit.
If you’re looking to get certified, the centre offers a personalised schedule for the PADI Open Water Diver course to suit individual needs.
Whether you're a beginner ready to start your diving journey or an experienced diver seeking new underwater adventures—or even just in need of dive gear and services—Kevin believes Teign Diving Centre is your go-to spot in Teignmouth and the surrounding area. Dive in and join the fun!
