Capernwray Dive Site
Our favorite training site, Capernwray (aka, Jackdaw Quarry) sits on the edge of the Lake District. Diveworld has a full training weekend each month right through the year.
Featuring diving depths up to 20 metres, the quarry boasts many fine features including:

- Purpose designed training platforms at depths from 2m to 12m.
- Jetty to practice deep water entries and exits.
- Two designated training areas, buoyed for easy recognition.
- Underwater cave to simulate overhead environment training.
- Countless underwater attractions including helicopters, boat wrecks, plane wrecks, a bathesphere and more, endless training possibilities.
