SCUBA & FREEDIVING
AT VOBSTER QUAY

Welcome to the UK's friendliest inland scuba diving venue. Please note that for the Autumn and Winter of 2020, you will need to be a member to visit Vobster Quay.

We offer diving members the option to choose one of two 6 hour diving sessions every day, for 7 days a week. The timed diving sessions start at 8:00 each day.

We still require that divers must dive as a buddy pair but must follow all appropriate social distancing guidelines whilst not in the water. We also recommend that all divers follow DAN Europe's safety recommendations regarding diving during the COVID-19 outbreak.

Please do not turn up if you are not a current member and have not booked a session - you will not be able to dive!

BOOKING A DIVE SESSION

We offer diving members the opportunity to book one diving session per day, seven days a week (subject to availability).

Once you have completed the registration process, you will be able to book a diving session using our online booking portal at app.vobster.com. The portal will allow you to book dive sessions upto 14 days in advance and all existing bookings will be displayed within the portal.

Please do not turn up more than 15 minutes before your session starts. Divers must leave site at the end of their allocated diving session.

If you are unable to make the session you have booked, please cancel your booking online via the booking portal. Divers who fail to cancel sessions may still be charged.

Before you can book a diving slot at Vobster Quay, you must satisfy the following conditions:

You must be a current Vobster Quay dive member. Annual membership costs just £ 45.00. Visit the swim membership page for more information on how to become a dive member.
All members will need to sign our new terms & conditions, the health questionnaire and COVID-19 declaration. This can be done quickly and easily via our booking portal at app.vobster.com.

HOW TO INVITE A GUEST

Inviting a friend along for a relaxing swim, dive or SUP session is very easy to do. Below you'll find a step by step guide to what's involved...

VOBSTER MEMBER

First, create your session booking via our online booking portal at app.vobster.com.
On the YOUR SESSION BOOKINGS screen, each of your booked sessions should have two buttons - CANCEL and ADD GUEST. Click on the ADD GUEST button and the guest invite screen will appear.
Click on the 'Email me a link' button and then check your email inbox. You should receive an email from us containing a link - forward this email containing the link to your guest.
When you return to the booking portal, the 'ADD GUEST' button will change to +1 PENDING. Once your guest has registered with us and confirmed your invite, this will change to BOOKED.
Note that if you cancel your booking, your guest's booking will automatically be cancelled too. Guests cannot attend a session without the member who invited them.

YOUR GUEST

Your friend will forward you a link generated by our booking system. Follow this link in the email and you'll be taken to our booking system. If you're not already registered on our system, click on the REGISTER button.
Follow the onscreen instructions to register yourself on our system. You'll be asked to add your address and contact details, followed by various health and COVID declarations - these must all be completed to complete your registration. The system will generate a temporary password for you - make a note of this as you will need it later.
Once you've completed the registration process, you'll be taken to the YOUR SESSION BOOKINGS page where the sessions you have been invited to attend will be listed. You don't need to do anything if you do wish to attend - your attendance will automatically be confirmed when you sign in to the portal.
If you are unable to attend the session, remember to CANCEL the session so others may use it.

There are only a finite number of guest spaces available for each session. If you are unable to add a guest to your booking then the reason is simple - all guest spaces have been taken. No exceptions will be made.
All guest spaces MUST BE PREBOOKED through the booking portal at app.vobster.com - our staff cannot do this for you so please do not ask. Please do not just turn up with your guest!
Members can only invite ONE GUEST per session. This cannot be overriden so please do not ask.

Guests can only attend the same session that the member is attending - they cannot choose a different session or activity.
Guests can only attend with the member who invited them - if that member cancels their own booking, the guests' booking will be automatically cancelled too.
Members who invite guests must attend the session with their guest. If the member fails to turn up to a session that the guest attends, the member may be charged for the session they failed to attend.
