Welcome to our dive club

Welcome to the home of the LAPD (loose association of Portland divers). We are a non political club of divers with one simple goal, to go diving. We welcome all level of divers and we hope we can include something for everyone whether you are newly qualified or experienced. The dive calendar has been designed with this in mind. It's all about divers getting together and having a good time.

The club is run by Lois and Cords. They call the shots as far as the club is concerned and at least one of them will be around for the club weekends and trips. In addition to dive trips, we also intend to arrange other activities that will be of interest such as trips to the RNLI, Dive chamber, etc etc. All trips will be run at cost.

Cost to join the club will be £25 per year. For this you will entitled to go on club organised events. You will also receive a pre-pay discount card which will save you money on diving with our normal Internet programme and gas sales. Other shops will also give you a discount such as Underwater Explorers and Easton sports shop on production of this card. Hopefully other shops/services will also offer discounts in the near future.

There is both a club calendar attached to this site as well as a forum. Events will go on the calendar as we organise them. Further details of these events will be published on the forum where you will also be able to add your name if you wish to attend. Any member who organises a trip/event outside of the normal programme can also add there. As well as diving here in Portland, the club will also go elsewhere. This year we have trips booked here, Swanage, Plymouth and also Malta/Gozo.

Forget the politics, let's go diving......
