Welcome to Scuba First Ltd ...the only way to learn to dive

Learn to Dive - Cardiff and Newport

Our Scuba School and first class dive facilities are just 1 hour away from Cardiff, but a million miles away from the hustle and bustle of everyday living... make your 'learn to dive experience' something to remember !

Why are Scuba First different from other dive-centres:

You no longer need to endure stuffy classrooms, over-crowded dive pools & inflexible dive-centre schedules.

We have our own, purpose-built, 40 000 gallon, heated dive-pool and all facilities situated in the grounds of our highly-commended, 4-star B&B - accommodating up to 10 guests in unashamed luxury!  We also have a spa/jacuzzi and massage therapy clinic just to make life even easier !!

All of that means Scuba First can:

• run dive-courses, residential or otherwise, 24hrs a day, 7 days a week

• ensure that we never have more than 2 scuba students in the dive pool at any one time – ensuring that you get the very best of attention at ALL times

• enable you to qualify in as little as a single day if you want to !!

A Dive Centre unlike any other

We are a first-class training facility choosing to excel at instruction and not kit-sales! As such, we have no expensive dive-shops to run so that means we can pass on cost savings to you whilst guaranteeing you the very best ‘learn to dive’ experience possible.


NO other UK dive centre can offer you the same flexibility and combination of high-quality facilities and personal attention.

Our approach & dive centre facilities take all of the hassle away from you and offer you the opportunity to learn to dive, how you want, when you want, and at a price you can afford.

The owners of Scuba First Ltd (Chris & Nicky) have almost 20 years combined experience of dive instruction both in the UK and overseas. Our intention is to introduce a brand new world of adventure & travel to all of our students... we hope you come to love scuba diving as much as we do!
