Guided dives in Scapa Flow with our experienced Instructors and Divemasters is a very popular option with those qualified to dive to depths of 30m but unfamiliar with the layout and history of the breath-taking wrecks here in Orkney. Diving in Scapa Flow is done from our 50 foot dive boat - MV Radiant Queen.

We also run dives daily from the shore at the Churchill Barriers on Blockships sunk to protect the British Naval Fleet anchored in Scapa Flow during WWI & WWII. These wrecks are spectacular lying in ~12m of water within easy swimming distance from the shore. This site is ideal for certified divers who have not dived for a while, or who are not qualified for the deeper dives in Scapa Flow.

Whether you choose guided dives in Scapa Flow or the shallower blockship wrecks you can rest assured that your guide will be an Instructor or Divemaster who is familiar with both the history and layout of the wrecks and experienced in the diving conditions of the area. Guided dives are typically run for both individuals and small groups and are available to everyone.

Guided dives are for everyone and are particularly popular with:

Individual divers on holiday in Orkney without a buddy.

Recently qualified divers who feel more comfortable diving with someone more experienced.

Experienced but rusty divers.

Experienced divers who are diving with hired or unfamiliar kit.

For someone who wants the 'organising' taken out of a fun days diving! Scapa Scuba will book the dive boat, arrange equipment, brief the dive site and guide you to the best parts of the wreck.

Divers who have had Scapa Flow on their wish list for years and want to get the most out of every dive now that they have finally made it this far north!

Experienced divers on family holidays in Orkney wanting to dive the German Fleet for a day without disrupting everyone else's plans! With just one phone-call or a visit to the Scapa Scuba Dive Centre this can be arranged for you!
