Free Flow Divers is the British Club’s dive section - however it is not necessary to be a British Club Member to join.
The dive section is non-profit making and the cost is a modest $S120 per annum for non-Club Members and $5 per month for Club Members.
The aim of the dive section is to provide recreational scuba diving opportunities for our members in some of the best diving locations in Asia. Divers certified with any agency – BSAC, PADI etc are welcome. Through the auspices of the club we can arrange for training from beginners up to Divemaster qualifications here in Singapore - novices can learn to dive and existing scuba divers can advance their skills and knowledge.
MembershipWe have three classes of members
Standard Members - where members of the British Club elect to join Free Flow Divers. These members are charged $S5 per month to their British Club account ( this sum is matched by the British Club every half year). This gives full family membership to Free Flow Divers.
Section Guests - where people are not members of the British Club, but join Free Flow Divers and pay an annual family subscription of $S120. There is no joining fee. Such members may only participate in Free Flow Divers activities at the British Club . They are not permitted wider use of the British Club.
International Members - this is for those people who live away from Singapore but who visit Singapore regularly, or who just wish to join our trips to dive. Membership here is $S50 per individual per annum and again there is no joining fee.
When you join you will receive a free club polo shirt, towel and cap. The club meets socially once a month, usually at the British Club but this is varied to provide a variety of venues. At meetings, we usually discuss forthcoming trips, watch videos of recent club trips and receive presentations from time to time from members and visiting speakers. We occasionally have diving related quizzes and we always socialise.
In addition to monthly meetings there are social events such as regular parties at the British Club, member barbeques and the annual Free Flow Divers parties in the summer and at Christmas. We will normally have at least one under water photography competition each year.
Members can enjoy discounts at local dive shops and with local dive operators.
The club is able to charter live-aboard boats for weekends and longer trips at very favourable rates that are passed on to members. With a membership of over 100 of which forty are active divers we are able to easily fill charter boats and so can get the best possible deals with some control over the dive sites that we wish to dive.
Sign up today and enjoy being a Free Flow Diver.
Code of ConductOur Club is committed to keeping our diving ecology as pristine as possible. We try hard to follow the simple aspiration to 'Take only photographs, and leave only bubbles'.
We have agreed to behave according to our simple Code of Conduct shown below when we dive, and we ask that all who dive with us follow this example at all times, and to encourage and coach others to do the same. Our dive environment is fragile, we need to take the utmost care to preserve it for the creatures that live there, and for the generations of divers who will come after us.
Submit an article for the Web. We encourage all our members to submit an article, a report or a gallery for our web site so that we can all share in our experiences under the water. If you would like to do this please download and use this template. Then send your article to John. Many thanks.
