Deep Sea World dives deep into the past
DEEP Sea World, is taking a step back in time this weekend by dedicating a weekend to the history of scuba diving.
The event, in association with the Historic Diving Society, will include full demonstrations and talks looking at the history of diving over the past 100 years.
All activities are free with general admission. Using antique equipment such as lead boots, canvas suits and old-style diving helmets, the Historic Diving Society will perform spectacular underwater demonstrations in Deep Sea World’s shark-filled tank.
Matthew Kane, dive officer for Deep Sea World, said: "We are delighted to welcome back the Historic Diving Society to Deep Sea World.
"Scuba diving has changed dramatically over the past 100 years and this weekend will demonstrate how far we have come in underwater technology. It will be a fascinating experience for anyone interested in scuba diving."
