Dive-A-Lot-Scuba

Welcome to Dive-A-Lot-Scuba, billed as Lincolnshire's number one centre of excellence for PADI scuba diving lessons and the area's largest dive shop. As a full-time centre, it's built to help divers progress quickly — and its PADI 5 Star Instructor Development Centre (IDC) status, held by only a select few in the UK, backs that up.

Courses, training and who it suits

The team spans 14 PADI Instructors, from Rescue Divers to Master Instructors and Course Directors, delivering a full range of PADI courses, try dives, specialist workshops and first aid training. Skills are honed at Divealot Lake and the club's deep training pool — with pool sessions at Cranwell Swimming Pool (12.5 feet / 3.8m) on Thursday evenings from 7pm.

Based in Sleaford, roughly 20 miles from Lincoln, Boston, Bourne, Grantham, Newark and Spalding, the centre offers an onsite classroom, service centre, air fills, Nitrox, equipment sales and rental, free Wi-Fi and parking. With a friendly, no-pressure atmosphere, it suits newcomers and progressing divers alike.
