Welcome to the Seahorse divers club

The Seahorse Divers are members of the SAA (Sub Aqua Association) membership No.128. We were established at the same time as the SAA, almost thirty years ago. Seahorse Divers have always had a healthy membership, not too big and not too small, we are a family orientated group and all are welcome to join whether they dive or not. Seahorse Divers are a club based in Mansfield Woodhouse, Nottinghamshire in the heart of England which makes it ideal for open water training and diving at the renowned 'Stoney Cove' in Leicestershire, a quarry well known to the diving fraternity.

We have two Rigid Inflatable Boats (RIB's) called Seahorse and Seaeagle. These are well maintained and checked each year by the RNLI for seaworthiness. We try to get to the coast as often as possible to dive, but, being land locked trips to the coast generally take place during Bank Holidays. We do however take the RIB's to Skegness or Bridlington mainly on a Sunday. This helps to enhance members boating skills and all members are encouraged to help in the care and maintenance of these crafts.

Diving from charter boats is another activity that both novice divers and experienced divers can enjoy, depending on the technical ability of the dive. Some of the areas that we have dived at around England have been; Scapa Flow, The Sound of Mull, Seahouses, Plymouth, Falmouth and Anglesey.

Dive trips abroad are something else to look forward to once you have qualified, these can either be on 'Live-a-boards' or "Take it easy" being shore based. We have dived in many places around the world from close to home Norway, to further afield such as Malta, Cyprus, Red Sea, Maldives, Truk Lagoon and the Great Barrier Reef.
