IS TEKCAMP RIGHT FOR ME?

Your tech career starts here
You don't need to be a tech diver to attend TEKCamp - infact, you don't even need to own tech gear! Thanks to Apeks UK, our 'discovery' pathway lets would-be tech divers discover the tech route that best suits them. You'll get to try both a twinset and a sidemount system and then choose which configuration you'd like to use for the rest of TEKCamp at no extra charge! Later in the week, you'll also get to try dive a closed circuit rebreather.

Our instructors remember what it was like to take your first steps in tech diving. All our 'foundational' workshops are designed to suit divers with no previous tech experience and will be tailored to your abilities.

INTERMEDIATE
TECH DIVERS
Develop your tech diving
For divers who already have some experience of tech training or are simply experienced twinset divers, we offer a range of workshops designed to develop your existing skills and give you a raft of new skills that will allow you to take your diving to the next level. Working with you to develop a route that best suits your style of diving, our team of experienced instructors will help you to realise your tech ambitions.

TEKCamp is open to both open circuit (twinset or sidemount) and closed circuit rebreather divers. Our workshops can be tailored to your chosen configuration. For rebreather divers, we offer a number of rebreather specific training options.

ADVANCED
TECH DIVERS
Skills for tech explorers
When we say that our instructors are the very best, we really do mean it - most are industry leaders, training directors and, above all, diving explorers in their own right. They have quite literally 'been there and done it'. For experienced technical divers, we offer a range of workshops that tackle the more complex and cutting-edge aspects of technical diving.

These workshops offer the opportunity to learn skills that are simply not available anywhere else, taught by explorers who have used these skills on real diving expeditions! From rigging an underwater habitat to cave survey, complex navigation and deco stations, TEKCamp has it all!

NO KIT? NO PROBLEM!
Sign up for TEKCamp and we'll loan you tech kit!
Start your journey to the tech side with all kit provided courtesy of the good folk at Apeks UK.

Want to make the jump to technical diving but don't own your own gear? Thanks to Apeks UK, you don't need to - Apeks will loan you a full set of twinset or sidemount gear to use throughout TEKCamp week FREE OF CHARGE! All you need to bring is your drysuit, fins and mask and we'll sort out the rest.

You'll get to try both configurations and then choose which one you'd like to use for the rest of TEKCamp - there's never been a better way to discover your pathway to tech success! Spaces are very limited and we've only got six full sets of gear available so if you want to take advantage of this amazing opportunity, book now to avoid disappointment.




GOT A REBREATHER?
TEKCamp is for rebreather divers too!
TEKCamp isn't just for divers on open circuit gear - we offer a TEKCamp program just for rebreather divers too! Whether you're an experienced rebreather diver or still getting to grips with your unit, TEKCamp offers a unique opportunity to learn from some of the most experienced and knowledgeable rebreather instructors and instructor trainers in the world!

Our team of TEKCamp rebreather instructors are at the very cutting edge of rebreather training and actively use rebreathers within their own exploration-level diving projects. We accept most makes and models of closed circuit rebreather at TEKCamp - all we ask is that your unit is CE-APPROVED and the unit's O2 bottle is IN TEST & O2 CLEAN. If in doubt, call us on 01373 814666.

Under their expert guidance, we'll help you to not only master your unit but also work towards higher level rebreather training. Whether's it's MOD2, MOD3 or Expedition-level rebreather diving, TEKCamp will give you the perfect opportunity to really get to grips with your unit. Naturally you'll get to have some fun too - scootering on a rebreather is an experience not to be missed!
