Cabot Divers was first formed as a BSAC branch in July 1992 by a group of 12 like-minded divers who had known and dived with each other for several years.

By the first anniversary of the formation of the club, the total membership had grown to 28 and by summer of 1995, the membership had peaked at approximately 40 members, of various grades and levels of experience, from all walks of life. The membership includes a number of nationally qualified instructors who, during the early years of the club, provided diver grade training and many skill development courses.

Cabot Divers is a safety-conscious club and has its own safety equipment, for which training and refresher courses can be arranged.

Cabot Divers is a club committed to diving in the UK and all members are encouraged to organise dives. Consequently, the annual dive programme is comprehensive and varied in terms of location and types of dive. Our primary area of operation is the South West of England, though trips have also been made to Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Scillies and foreign destinations.
