Welcome to Clidive
We are a very active British Sub Aqua Club (BSAC) branch based in Central London. We have around 100 members.
Clidive is a very friendly club full of divers who believe that diving isn’t just for holidays once a year. Every year, Clidive organises 80-90 days of diving for its members in the UK and abroad. We are one of the most active diving clubs in the country.
We own two boats - fully equipped Tornado RIBS plus 16 sets of scuba equipment available for members' use.
We love training people new to the sport as well as welcoming qualified divers from all training organisations.
The club meets every Thursday evening from 7pm at St Georges Pool, Shadwell, when members have exclusive use of the pool for training and swimming (7.30 - 8.30pm in the pool). Thursday evenings finish off with a drink in the beer garden of The Old Rose, across the road on the Highway.
Check the DIVING section in the menu to see our dive programme for the year and to read reports of previous trips.
