AUTUMN NIGHT DIVING
JOIN US FOR TWO EVENINGS OF AWESOME NIGHT DIVING
Join us in October for two nights of the very best night diving right here at Vobster Quay. Whether you're hankering after a relaxing post-work dive or you're an instructor planning to run night diver training, we'll be staying open until 10:00pm - plenty of time to explore the darkness at your leisure.
You asked for it and we've delivered – on two nights in October, we'll be running 'proper' night dives here at Vobster Quay. With a choice of two dates, it's the perfect opportunity to explore the lake in the hours of darkness so grab those lithium-powered lightsabers and come join us!

With an out of the water time of 22:00, there will be plenty of time to finish the day job and then head to Vobster Quay for a relaxing two-dive evening. Whether you're a sport diver lamenting the end of the sea diving season, or a dive school hustling to run some proper night diver training, diving at Vobster Quay in the dark is a unique and thrilling experience not to be missed. What's more, these very special night dive sessions are OPEN TO ALL - including non-members!

MEET THE 'VOBSTER LOBSTERS'
The darker hours offer the perfect opportunity to spot our famous white-clawed crayfish as they go about their business scurrying around the various nooks and crannies to be found on the lake floor. Why not indulge in a bit of 'citizen science' by helping us to track their distribution within the lake? You can report your sightings (and post up pictures!) to our official White-clawed Crayfish Conversation Project page on the Project Baseline website? We'd love you to get involved!

Back to the practicalities of night diving - once you've had a great time, you'll need to be paid up and offsite by 22:30. Food and gas will be available until 21:00 - sorry we can't do cheeky fills or burgers after that.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Both night diving sessions will become bookable 28-days in advance via our online booking portal.

Test dive an Orcatorch
Need a torch? Thanks to our friends at Sea&Sea UK, we've added a selection of their latest high-power Orcatorch models to our hire range. Choose between the compact but powerful Orca 7 or the mighty 'underwater lightsaber', the ZD710 MK2.

Hire either model for just £5.00 per dive session. Impressed by their performance? Buy one from our shop after your dive and we'll knock the fiver you spent off the purchase price.
