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.

Imagine diving intermediate to deeper wrecks in your area... You've paid for your gas and boat, and there's so much to see but always so little time to cover the distance. In comes the Suex VR-X Scooter... Sue’s most popular recreational scooter, depth rated to 100 metres.

With an impressive 100-minute runtime on its maximum speed of 65m/min*, the powerful, compact and reliable Suex VR-X Scooter will cover most open water diving conditions and equipment configurations, taking the effort out of your diving while reducing your work of breathing.

With two-speed control, PropLock propeller and body in Hi-GR Compound, you can travel underwater for up to 150 minutes at cruising speed, use the scooter to follow a shotline down even in currents, do the whole length of most wrecks and dive sites available down to 100 metres. 

The popular Suex VRX is a reliable and compact scooter covering most open water diving conditions, taking the effort out of diving while helping to reduce work of breathing... a great choice for the ambitious diver.  

Weighing only 16.5kg on the surface with a length of 720mm, the Suex VRX is easy to transport on and off dive boats. The external main switch makes long transport out of the water safer without accidentally switching on.

Suex VRX PropLock system adds to underwater safety by allowing divers to easily remove the propellor underwater to disengage any plants or fishing lines that may get caught up. 

Its Li-ION battery with an external charging system offers a capacity of 512Wh to cover longer dives. It has an external battery indicator displaying the runtime via an LED ring. Blue LED means the battery is full, while the redder it turns, the less runtime is left. If it turns totally red, it will mean there is approximately 10-15 minutes runtime left.

Calypso App

Suex VR-X Scooters are equipped with bluetooth devices that allow to get motor and battery information (if Li-ion battery with Drive system has been installed).

These functions are available only out of the water and require the Calypso App (available on Google Play & App store). To turn the Bluetooth system on, the battery has to be connected to the motor and the Scooter has to be switched ON.

To read the battery data when the battery is off-board, connect the battery to the charger and plug the charger to the main. Once the Bluetooth devices are ON, the application is ready and the data can be read.

First-time connection will require Bluetooth pairing of devices and smartphone.

Suex VRX has high performace PropLock

The body and the PropLock propeller of the Suex VR-X Scooter are made of high-performance Technopolymers/polycarbonate.

Thanks to the Suex PropLock system, it is possible to remove the propeller even while diving to easily remove tangled lines or nylon threads.

  • Charge indicator with high-intensity blue LED lights (load) and red LED lights (discharge)
  • External Li-ion battery charging port
  • Patented locking system without hooks or screws, minimising the risk of snagging and eliminating the risk of accidental opening
  • Fully mechanical safety system to cut off power in all conditions
  • Patented system for releasing and refitting the propeller underwater without tools and separate parts
  • Electronic propeller speed control device and Soft Start system for progressive starting of the motor
  • Battery/motor separator in transparent material for easy inspection of the motor compartment
  • Ergonomically designed control handle for easy control of direction and speed
  • Watertight separation of the motor compartment and the battery, for increased safety when diving and protection during preparation
