Welcome
Welcome to the University of Portsmouth Diving and Underwater Club (UPDUC). The university dive club has been in existance for over 34 years and we are Branch 9184 of the British Sub-Aqua Club (BSAC), the largest diving club in the world.
News
You might think that everyone has gone home for the summer, but that can't be further than reality! There are still lots of us in Portsmouth and the diving season really kicks off now with the great weather and numerous Bank Holidays coming up. So get in touch and get planning dive trips!
You can find us at The Eldon Arms every Tuesday from about 8:30pm so come down and talk to us about diving...or anything else for that matter.
We've got a bunch of dive trips in the pipeline! Take a look on the forum and on the noticeboard in the pub and then sign up!!!
Please see the calendar for all up-to-date information, all dives/socials/other events will be available to view here.
Please remember to join the forum if you have not already done so, this will add you to the mailing list as this is the main way for us to contact you.
