Club dives

Up to three days a week provided there is a dive leader for it. Since we are voulenteers, club dives can be organised the day before. This means that it’s a good idea to add the calendar and join the maling group.

Dives depart from our club at Damsgårdsveien 113

Tuesdays departs at 18:00, meet 17:00 if you don’t have gear, 17:30 if you do.
Saturdays departs at 11:00, meet 10:00 if you don’t have gear, 10:30 if you do.
Sundays same schedule as Saturdays

You only need to bring mask & fins, plus any clothing and food according to conditions. Read more about gear rental.

FAQ

  • Much of the diving in Norway during the afternoon and evening takes place after dark, especially in the winter months. This means that visibility becomes significantly reduced, and standard hand signals and procedures do not work as usual. We address this by using light signals and night diving procedures, which are not always covered in all basic courses. If you don’t have prior experience, it’s therefore important to talk to the dive leader beforehand so that you can go over the relevant rules and procedures, and choose a dive site where you can practice this—preferably during a previous dive in easier conditions (such as a Saturday dive).

  • When diving with a bottom timer, we use dive tables—for example, the Norwegian Diving and Treatment Tables—and calculate using a “flat” profile. This means we treat the dive time as if you are at the maximum depth for the entire duration of the dive.

  • If you completed your course without using a dry suit, you must first participate in an intro dive where you receive training in the use of a dry suit and the rest of the club’s equipment. The intro dive includes some theory and two dives with an instructor. See registration here.
