EASTBOURNE DIVE FESTIVAL 2011

Next Easter bank Holiday Weekend we are going to be holding a dive festival in Eastbourne. Departing from Sovereign Harbour we have two boats in use; Dive 125, Eastbourne’s most popular hard boat and Sovereign Diver, Our Club’s own RIB. In all there will be some 80 Dive spaces over the weekend from Ocean diver (Open Water) depths to Tech 1 (50m) Trimix depths.

Fantastic accommodation at extremely reasonable prices (From £14 per night in the brand new hostel) is available for early bookers and we will be having evenings out in some of Eastbourne’s most popular restaurants for those who stay over.

We have one of the best compressor installations of any BSAC club I have seen and can offer Nitrox and Trimix to Guests of the Club who dive with us that weekend at cost.

Make no bones about it, this is a membership drive; we want to show divers just what we have to offer and just how economical it can be to dive with us from Eastbourne.Come down and see what we can offer you.

Too Far? We already have a significant number of London based members and even members as far afield as Buckinghamshire!! Cost price Trimix, O2 and Free air fills coupled with RIB dives at £17 makes us a really attractive proposition.

The weekend will consist of dives from Ocean Diver (Open Water) level on the Club RIB to Sports diver (PADI Advanced) on the Hardboat for the first day (Two wreck dives on the Hardboat) to full 50m Trimix on the final days.Take a look at the attached schedule to see what suits you.

This is a fantastic opportunity to kick start your diving in 2011 and find out just what Sovereign Divers (Eastbourne BSAC) can do for you!

So, if you’re interested in a fantastic weekends diving or simply want to come down for a single day, please take a look at the attached .pdf file that shows what we are planning and when.

If you want to put your name down Please PM Me. Spaces will be allocated in the order of PM’s received only – This list is running across several forums and so PM’s are the fairest (and only) way of allocating spaces on a first come first served basis. The "Master List" will be posted on YD once spaces are allocated.
