Conditions have remained quite good for the last few days, the only issue has been the slight swells and onshore winds in some regions across the South Wales area. The further west will have the better conditions especially from Stackpole Quay on to West Wales.
Conditions should be good for PADI Advanced Open water Divers who are experienced or have professional or competent guides with them. PADI Open Water Divers must stay to sheltered protected areas with full guidance for safety and protection.
Coastal areas must be evaluated especially for tides and weather conditions as always. We are also running the full PADI system of diver training throughout the year as we have been since 1998.
