Most of our open water training is carried out at the excellent Leicestershire dive site called "Stoney Cove".
Stoney has several layers at varying depths (6m, 20m & 35m. There are three main entry/exit points. A slipway you can stride/roll-in, the old wooden platform (Bus Stop) providing a stride entry, or the recently addded long jetty. Until arrival of the jetty, the platform and its ladder were the most used entry/exit points. With 100,000 divers visiting the site each year, the platform must have been the most used dive point in the UK, if not the world.
