    I was a member of this club for 5 years and think it's one of the best things I've ever done. Great friendly group, a mix of experienced and beginner divers. I've now moved to Australia and I'm struggling to find a dive club that lives up to Putney BSAC!

    A really friendly club that guides both new and existing divers through the diving experience. Regular socials means that you can make great friends as well as just diving partners.

    Great club full of divers from absolute beginners to really experienced and long-standing members, with an active training programme. There's also plenty of non-diving social stuff going on so it's really easy to meet everyone. Would definitely recommend!

    A friendly club where members go out of their way to help each other and have fun. They have a number of instructors to train up members. They have a (small) boat as well.

    Super friendly club, with a great bunch of instructors - definitely the cheapest way of learning to dive (or handle a boat)!
