RAID Connect – Wales

It’s time to go places, explore and connect to others. Whatever your experience level, RAID Connect is a perfect way to kick start your diving at these great coastal locations events.

Each event has been chosen and organized by active RAID Dive Centres, attended by RAID staff at locations we feel everyone should dive and enjoy.

RAID Connect is much more than just diving, the whole point is the “connections” meeting other like-minded people is so beneficial, especially with the months of social distancing we have experienced. Enjoying the buzz of the sport and the social interaction is the life-blood of the beautiful sport of scuba.

Who’s welcome?

Everyone – RAID is a fully inclusive diver trainer agency, we don’t care what colour tee-shirt you wear and encourage people of all ages to come along and Connect.

How do I book?

Wales – 3rd/4th July (Bay Divers)

This event is co-hosted by RAID Dive Centre – Bay Divers, Karl and his team can be reached on – 07859 018970 or email baydivers@live.co.uk to register for the event. Their website is www.baydivers@live.co.uk

When: The weekend of 3&4 July

Diving: Store based, relaxed shallow (10m max) scenic diving. Ideally for refreshing your skills and getting back in the salty stuff.

Where: held at St Brides (SA62 3AJ). Bay divers use this site regularly, it offers swimming pool like qualities near high tide and is sheltered from the typical SW conditions as it’s northerly facing. A great and popular little site that sits on the edge of the conservation area where fishing is banned & therefore a plethora of life!

Speak to Bay Divers for assorted dives, rental and equipment options and further site information, if required.

You’ll need to arrange your own accommodation, there are a few B&Bs & self-catering properties in Little Haven so on the accommodation side, you’d need to get in early with your booking. It’s rammed in the summer and great atmosphere in Little Haven, you guys will love it!

B&B at Hasguard Cross (Walker’s Lodge, SA62 3SJ) and there’s lots of campsites nearby. 

We suggest people book to arrive Thursday/Friday and perhaps we could jam in a cheeky dive or two then, with diving on Saturday ( socialising activities allowing) diving Sunday  leaving Sunday or Monday free for the travelling divers to enjoy a late breakfast, gather their kit & depart. See you there!
