Uber Scuba

Uber Scuba is a boat hire service, boat tour agency, diving centre, diving contractor, and marine surveyor based in Poole, Dorset. With a prime location at Fisherman's Wharf on Poole Quay, Uber Scuba offers scuba diving adventures, bespoke charters, and a range of other marine-related services.

One of the key features that sets Uber Scuba apart is their extensive experience in the industry. They have been the go-to choice for filming and TV documentaries, having been featured numerous times on BBC National and South Today. Their expertise was showcased on BBC Breakfast and BBC News when they introduced a new low-impact mooring system in Studland Bay, a Marine Conservation Zone known for its seagrass meadows. This innovative system not only protects the seagrass but also supports the preservation of native seahorses and other species that call this habitat home.

Uber Scuba has also provided dive support for renowned figures in the diving community, such as celebrity diver Bill Bailey. They have worked closely with Bournemouth University's marine biologist, Dr. Alice Hall, on various projects over the years. In addition, Uber Scuba has collaborated with prestigious institutions like Southampton University and BU Marine Archaeology, showcasing their commitment to excellence and professionalism.

A highlight of Uber Scuba's services is their state-of-the-art vessel named “Rocket. ” This 12-metre sports catamaran is powered by twin turbo Iveco engines, boasting an impressive 900hp. Rocket offers a spacious and stable main deck, as well as a unique flybridge, making it a standout choice for filming, event support, and marine surveys.

Beyond scuba diving, Uber Scuba caters to a diverse range of needs. They excel in providing bespoke experiences, catering to everything from family days out to corporate team-building events. With their stable catamaran platform, they are often chartered for film and televised events. They also offer commercial diving and non-dive charters, with pricing tailored to each individual request.

Trevor Small, the owner and skipper of Uber Scuba's dive support vessel, Rocket, brings a wealth of experience to the team. As a commercially endorsed Yachtmaster and diver, Trevor's deep understanding of the local waters and his passion for marine exploration is evident. In fact, he discovered England's oldest shipwreck, the mediaeval Mortar wreck, in 2020, solidifying his reputation as a respected figure in the field.

Located in the vibrant town of Poole, Uber Scuba invites visitors to drop by their base at Fisherman's Wharf and say hello. If they're out at sea, customers can join them quayside after diving and take advantage of the lively bars and restaurants nearby. Uber Scuba prides itself on providing exceptional service and meeting the unique needs of its customers.
