Why Portland?

We’re located on the Isle of Portland (in Dorset) because Portland has been one of the most popular scuba diving locations in the United Kingdom even before we set up operations here back in the year 2000.

On one side, we’re minutes away from the sheltered waters of Portland Marina and Harbour, while on the other, it’s just a brief walk to reach our famous scuba diving destination Chesil Cove and start of the 16-mile-long Chesil Beach.  

Portland’s location makes it ideal for scuba diving, freediving, snorkelling and other surface water sports activities. 

Check out how many wrecks we have around here by clicking on Scimitar Diving's Wreck & Dive Sites chart!

Alongside dive clubs, many instructors and dive schools travel here to train and offer scuba diving certification ranging from open water diver to mixed-gas tech diving or rebreather diving levels.

Whether you’re doing a boat dive from Portland Marina or Castletown or a shore dive at Chesil Cove, Portland is well known for offering many possibilities: Reef diving to wreck diving and night diving, underwater photography or underwater videography. Anything other than cave diving is possible here.

Likely being the best-stocked diving shop in the UK, at Underwater Explorers we offer in-store scuba diving equipment advice and sales, as well as gas fills, to locals and visitors (read About Us).

But... If you’re googling “scuba diving shop near me” like some, look no further, there's DirDirect online.

Here at DirDirect, we list our cutting-edge equipment for worldwide delivery and we’ve got you covered whatever your level of diving: We’re your local dive store wherever you are in the world.

All that with over 20 years of experience especially in technical diving, from training to equipment, advice and sales.

The Dive Rite Classic XT Wing is designed solely for twinset, and with the option of a single or dual bladder, the Classic XT provides 60lbs of lift, which can accommodate two 17L cylinders and two 80cf stage cylinders.

Supporting heavy doubles and stage bottles is one thing, but properly balancing and stabilising that amount of heavy gear for proper trim while swimming is where the Classic XT really shines.

Designed to handle the extremes, the Classic XT Wing is built using rugged SuperFabric® brand technology XT material that creates an armour-clad outer shell that is impervious to damaging pinches and cuts, along with a 1680 ballistic nylon diver’s side panel.

Inside the SuperFabric® outer shell, a heavy-duty, 210-denier nylon laminated bladder enhances the ruggedness and superior performance of the Classic XT.

Classic XT Wing can be matched with a TransPac XT, Transplate, or any metal backplate and webbing harness.

Gusset Control System

The doughnut-shaped design provides excellent stability and control while diving by keeping a volume of inflation on the top, sides, and bottom.

This, along with an optional integrated Gusset Control System (GCS) that reduces “taco” effect, promotes effective streamlining and puts buoyancy where it is most needed for superior horizontal trim.

The GCS is not like a bungee wing because it does not restrict airflow; instead, the GCS promotes added streamlining and buoyancy control yet allows the wing to inflate to its full capacity.
