Dive Force

Dive Force is one of the UK's oldest PADI diving training centres, with over 40 years of experience behind it. Started in 1982 by Terry and Jean Wheal and a PADI dive centre since 1987, this London-based, family-friendly PADI 5 Star Dive Center pairs three PADI Instructors with the kind of personal attention that only a long-standing independent operation can offer.

Courses and who it suits

As a PADI Approved Youth Training Centre, Dive Force specialises in teaching children aged 8 to 18, using child-sized scuba equipment and DBS-certified staff. Alongside core PADI scuba diving and snorkelling, it offers PADI First Aid (EFR), Adaptive Diving, and conservation-focused training, with an Adaptive Services Facility on site.

Local training takes place at the Edmonton Leisure Centre, while the centre also handles air fills, nitrox, equipment sales, servicing and rental, plus kids' equipment hire. An onsite classroom, retail shop, free Wi-Fi, parking and a dive club round out a welcoming base for divers of every age and ability.
