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.

Not all Split Fins are the same. Atomic Split Fins have a flexible blade designed with Propeller-Fin™ technology, so kicks feel very easy and slice through the water with very little drag.

Atomic Split Fins

How Split Fins work

Conventional paddle fins work by pushing water rearward. In contrast, the Split Fin slices through the water with two wing-shaped surfaces, creating lift and forward propulsion more like a propeller.

Any water travelling over the top of the blade is funnelled into and out of the opening (split) between the blades. Drag is reduced, effort is reduced, and efficiency is increased.

Atomic Split Fins use Propeller-Fin™ Technology to deliver ultra-high speeds with a small-range rapid flutter kick, much like a boat propeller accelerates it to higher speeds.

Although Split Fins work with various kicking styles, a smaller-range, more frequent flutter kick delivers maximum performance.

Features of Atomic Split Fins

Power Rails
The highly resilient power rails perform as the backbone of the splitfin, storing and releasing energy with every kick. Proprietary and exclusive to Atomic Aquatics, this material will not deteriorate or lose its resiliency.

Flex Pattens
Semi-rigid battens set in the soft elastomeric blade control the precise wing shape to optimise thrust and reduce drag.

Split Blade
The split blade deflects with the slightest kick to form a pair of wings that slice through the water with reduced drag, propelling you forward.

High Surface Ratio Blade
Large surface area blade improved pivoting, turning and alternate kicking styles.

Hinge Points
Thin yet strong and highly flexible hinge points between the semi-rigid battens cause the blade to react quickly and efficiently to the slightest kick.

Anatomically Correct Foot Pocket
Contoured to fit your foot without stress points, with a semi-open toe for added comfort.

Power Plate
Internal sole plate creates a rigid platform beneath the foot for greater power transfer to the blade yet allows a soft, comfortable foot pocket.

EZ-LOK Buckle System
Totally new, patented buckle system design features the easy, one-handed quick release of the buckle from the fin. Re-attachment is simple and secure.
