Welcome to Chorley BSAC

Based in Chorley Lancashire, we have over 40 members ranging from 8 to 60 years of age.

As well as Chorley, we cover the Standish, Wigan, Skelmersdale and surrounding districts.

 

 Our philosophy is to enjoy ourselves in a safe and sensible manner.
Fancy diving on wrecks, amongst coral reefs, diving with seals or snorkelling with dolphins?
You can, safely, with the correct training and enthusiasm!

 

We were created in 1968 and have a wealth of diving experience worldwide. Our Branch is no.304 of the British Sub-Aqua Club which is the governing body for the sport of underwater swimming in the British Isles and the largest diving club in the world.

 

The UK has a diverse marine environment that rivals some of the best in the world with more than 7,500 miles of coastline to explore. Couple that with a wide variety of inland waterways, lakes and quarries and we have a real divers’ paradise right on our own doorstep.

Next Club Event! TBA

Go Dive with Chorley BSAC

An invitation to divers qualified by other agencies....

We would like to invite you to come and give it a go the BSAC way. Commercial Diving Centres are busy with training courses and cannot always meet the needs of qualified divers that want to go diving for fun. This is where BSAC Branch diving succeeds - we go diving! This is what the Branch system is best at, organising interesting dives to cater for all levels of experience - diving for divers!

Please click the Go Dive logo for more information.
