Snorkelling Snorkelling is a sport that can be pursued by individuals of all ages, couples, family groups and friends alike. It is inexpensive and only requires three simple pieces of equipment - a mask, snorkel and fins. It can be a great way to explore the underwater environment - adding much enjoyment to holidays and day trips. The best way to learn quickly and safely is to receive tuition from experienced instructors. Fortunately, you do not need to live close to the sea to learn how to snorkel; LUEC has been successfully delivering snorkelling training courses for over 30 years. Learn to snorkel with LUEC LUEC has three BSAC qualified snorkel instructors who have over 50 years' experience between them. Our DBS checked instructors offer various types of snorkel training to individuals aged eight years or above.

Training sessions cover snorkel theory and practical skill development activities to ensure that you get the most from your equipment.

As a member, you can use the pool on a club night to either further your snorkelling skills or just have a swim - this facility is included in your membership fee. Snorkelling and diver training For those who do want to take up diver training with the Club, we ask all new dive trainees spend some time learning how to snorkel correctly before going on to full scuba training. This enables you to concentrate on learning scuba specific skills without having to master fundamentals like finning techniques at the same time! Over the years we have found that this makes for a better, more confident diver.
