Hi all! I'm a Canadian student in Cambridge for the year, and really wanting to do some diving. Just thought I would put some feelers out and ask if anyone is looking for a dive buddy, or knows a good way to get out and do some lake or quarry dives? I don't have a car here, so am unfortunately limited to places I can reach with public transport.
 
You may wanted to join a local bsac club to get buddies


Go meet them and see if you get along before to pay money and join.

Maybe you want to check Stoney Cove for a quarry training place?
 
There should be some student diving clubs around Cambridge and the university. As @BlueTrin said, a BSAC club would probably be best for you. You will need to go along to one of their club nights or better still a pool night.

Stoney's the closest larger quarry to you, but a fair way away - 75 miles or so.

Sea diving's pretty much off now until the start of next season. April onwards. Apparently North Norfolk diving's quite nice.
 
Thanks, I think the Cambridge uni BSAC is relatively inactive atm due to covid, but I will check out the regional one!

In addition to the Uni club there are 2 others in Cambridge, Cambridge (Cherterton Sports & Leisure Centre) and Newmarket (Bottisham Swimming Pool).

The Uni website shows them meeting weekly at the Panton Arms, thursday 9pm.
