Calling all Mid Lancs divers! 📣

​This Saturday, August 22nd, 2026, we’re heading to the stunning coast of Anglesey for an epic day of wreck diving! 🌊

​Our dive plan is packed with history, marine life, and adventure as we explore two incredible wrecks:
​Dive 1: Segontium Wreck
Depth: 32m ⚓️
A deeper dive with fascinating structures to discover.

​Dive 2: Kimya Wreck
Depth: 13m ⛴️
A shallower wreck perfect for exploring its diverse marine ecosystem.

​Here's what you need to know:

​Launch: 09:45 - 10:15 from Trearddur Bay Slipway. Don't be late! ⏰
​Boat: Little Mo, our trusted RIB, will be our dive platform. 🛥️
​Dive Groups: We'll dive in two groups for each wreck, with 45 minutes of bottom time for each group. 🐠
​Surface Interval & Prep: Take a 30-minute lunch break and allow 15 minutes for kit up before we dive the Kimya. 🍔
​Return: We'll aim to be back in Trearddur Bay between 16:00 - 16:15.

​Key Reminders:
​Review the dive plan in detail. You can find it attached to this post!
​Remember your safety checks and use the buddy system. 👯

​Monitor weather and visibility on the day.

Take us back to the Sound of Mull!

​Still dreaming about our recent trip to Lochaline and that incredible dive on the SS Shuna. Sitting off Sound of Mull in around 30m of water, she’s easily one of the most stunning, intact wreck dives in the UK!

​From floating over her iconic, wooden-planked decks to watching the vibrant marine life that’s made this 1913 German freighter its home, every minute on this dive was absolute magic. Standard Sound of Mull visibility didn't disappoint either! 💙

​Who else is already itching to get back in the water and do it all over again? Drop your favorite photos from the trip in the comments! 📸👇

We had a brilliant night at the pool during our latest club session!

​A massive shoutout to Katie, who took the plunge and completed her Try Dive with us last night. She took to the water like a natural, mastering those first underwater breaths and getting a true taste of what diving is all about. Welcome to the underwater world, Katie!

​Adding to the fun, we were also joined by the twins, who were back in the water giving their scuba skills a good polish. Whether you're taking your very first breath underwater or fine-tuning your buoyancy and drills, there's always room in the pool and plenty of smiles to go around.

​Interested in giving it a go yourself?
​If you've ever wondered what it feels like to breathe underwater, why not book a Try Dive with us? Drop us a message to save your spot for our next pool session! 💬👇
