London School of Diving

Great people and facilities. Andy was my Dive Master for a Scuba Refresher session. I was very nervous as I hadn’t dived since 2017 and as I’m now 68, starting to get a bit feeble!

Andy put me at ease with his calm and professional manner and talked me through everything before I did any of the tasks.

The LSD were easy to book, easy to deal with, helpful and very professional. No complaints, would highly recommend.

My 12-year-old son recently completed his Open Water Diver Qualification with the London School of Diving. Fantastic support and information throughout the weekend. The professionalism of the instructor was excellent and his attention to detail was very reassuring. My son is more enthusiastic than ever to continue diving.

So firstly a massive shoutout to Brett who was amazing this morning!!!! So after 10 years away from diving i am off to Jamaica so thought a refresher course was in order:

From the minute I arrived everyone was lovely and I felt welcome and relaxed.

The course itself was clearly structured and Bret made me feel at ease and went through the basics which thankfully came back to me quickly.

It was was a great experience and can’t recommend London school of diving enough.

Took my 11yo daughter and her two friends to a Discover SCUBA Diving experience at LSD on the weekend and it was fantastic. Albina was knowledgeable, safety conscious and fun throughout and the girls had a great time. Highly recommended and my daughter is looking forward to further her certification with LSD in the future. Thanks!

It was my first time in a dry suit, my first time diving in cold water (and in England), my first time diving in what felt 1m visibility at best on day one... and you never forget a first time. Luckily for me, the team of Hannah, Andy, Alex and Matt all contributed to a positive and memorable experience. My advanced cert was left in the hands of patient professionals all taking the time to explain do's and don't before and after to ensure that lessons learned would be captured for a life time and an ever safer future. Definitively a crew I would learn from again. Thank you!

Absolutely fantastic! Maddie was so good with my daughter, Isla (11), and she's keen to try again. I'd like her to be able to clear her ears comfortably before we sign up to an Open Water PADI course so I think round 2 of a try dive will be booked very soon. Isla wants to bring friends along next time!

The pool was warm and only needed a swimsuit so no wetsuit required. Changing facilities were clean.

I can't compliment Maddie enough. She was so calm and just put everyone at ease. Very impressed. 10/10!

Completed a refresher course prior to holiday in Thailand. My instructor Luke was super helpful, professional and patient. He covered all the skills training in good detail. Thoroughly recommended to keep your skills up to date.

I attended the scuba diving taster session with my sister who took to breathing underwater a lot more naturally than I did. The instructors were phenomenal in helping calm me down when I was panicking and incredibly supportive of me, going at a pace that suited me whilst still being able to run the session for my sister and other participant as normal so no one missed out. Their support meant that I was able to complete my skills at the end of the session and feel a lot more confident. Thank you :)

Recommended - a great way to re-learn key safety techniques before going away on holiday. Our instructor was excellent, calm and clear. Brilliant way to make sure the holiday is safe and fun.

My partner and I had a fantastic time doing our open water referral and completion with LSD - they were extremely thorough in their teaching, made everyone feel relaxed and also made it fun. Class sizes are small and there is more than one teacher so its almost 1-2-1, and everything was organised very well. Facilities were good, and the lake was only a 20 minute drive from the centre, so it was all very convenient as well.
Shout out to Cat and Geoff for being great teachers, but also to Elle, Jake and Gary! Thank you guys!

I just completed the Open Water Diver course (part A and B) with two friends and we had a brilliant experience thanks to great instructors. I was very nervous going into it and the instructors were incredibly helpful and patient and I ended up having a great time! Our two instructors were Aneet and John and I can't thank them enough for all their help! We also had 2 students training for the Divemaster qualification who ended up acting like 2 additional instructors, which meant we were incredibly well cared for!

Had a great experience completing EFR with Andy today! Thank you very much!

I opted to do my Nitrox course from London School of Diving. Did the PADI theory online beforehand then went to the centre for the practical part of the course.

Cath was our instructor and she is great - very friendly, made the learning quite fun and she went through the fundamentals of what we had done online in a really thorough and easy to digest way.

Overall I was quite pleased, and would definitely recommended the centre for getting courses done. I didn't go into the pool as wasn't necessary but having seen the centre and dealt with Cath I am confident that LSD and their instructors would be a great place to start or expand a scuba journey. Will be coming back at some point for additional certifications!

Just completed my Discover Scuba Diving session at LSD. My instructor, Tania, was knowledgable, calm and easygoing, all of which really helped me feel at ease since it was my first diving experience. The in-house pool is a great facility and makes for a calming, focused atmosphere. Already booked in for Part A of the PADI Open Water course and very much looking forward to it.

What a brilliant set up! We were so pleased we chose LSD to refresh our dive skills. A wonderful teacher with incredible patience who reminded us of the ‘fun side’ as much as ensuring we were ready for any emergencies under water and had practiced all necessary skills until we were perfectly confident. Just two of us being taught, meant we had a really concentrated session and are now ready for our holiday diving! Thank you LSD!

My daughter and I experienced a great 3 hour Refresher Course on 5/7/23 with Alex and colleague. Super pool. Very friendly, thorough and professional, both were precise with every exercise. As hoped, we left with full confidence before our week diving at the Red Sea Dive College, Sharm. Thanks to all.

Had a great time here doing our open water part A with Andy here yesterday. He was a really good, patient instructor that really took the time to make sure we were comfortable with everything we were doing. The facilities are really good with the two pools and everything you need right there

My teenage son recently learned to dive overseas, and we saved a lot of time using the referral course provided by LSD. It is extremely thorough, efficient and good value for money. One should be mindful that the referral course price already includes the PADI e-learning, which would cost about £200 if one purchased it separately - so the whole package is excellent value.

Make sure you eat beforehand as the day in the tank is a full on experience - some 6-7 hours. Good luck and don't hesitate to use London School of Diving.

Having just passed my open water with London school of diving.
It is one of the best things i have done.
All the instructors made me safe and confident.
So i big thank you first to Chloe(Discover Scuba Diving)
Nick and Britt(open water referral) And Elizabeth and Mario(open water completion) And all the staff at LSD

Went here for a refresher dive before a trip to Montenegro. The instructors made me feel so comfortable and all the knowledge came back in no time. Would definitely recommend this place for anyone who wants to learn to dive or do more advanced courses. The facilities were also lovely!
