Newcastle University Sub Aqua Society - Scottish East Coast & Borders

The team at Newcastle University Sub Aqua Society are a great pick if you’re studying in the area and want to keep diving without breaking the bank. Forget the usual commercial operations; this is a true club atmosphere, driven by passion for the sport. We love that they make regular trips up to the Scottish East Coast, an area often overlooked but full of rugged charm. Think grey seals playing peek-a-boo in kelp forests, the surprising splash of colour from a plumose anemone against dark rock, and the satisfying chill of truly bracing British waters. They’re PADI certified and run courses from beginner to more advanced, so it’s perfect if you’re looking to get qualified or just brush up on skills. Our favourite part is the social aspect; dives often wrap up with a hearty pub meal, sharing stories and warming up properly. If you’re a student, or just fancy diving with a lively, welcoming bunch, give them a shout. You’ll find some genuinely dedicated divers here.
