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.

SANTI E.LITE - No compromise in your urge to explore

Looking for a drysuit that can handle the toughest dives and the standard or Made-to-Fit versions of the Santi E.Lite Drysuit don't work for you?

Go Made-to-Measure with this top-of-the-line suit which is perfect for technical, cave, and wreck dives, thanks to its exceptional durability and added protection for sensitive areas.

The secret to the E.Lite's strength is its Ripstop Nylon fabric, which is exclusive to Santi. This, combined with an ergonomic Y-cut shape and meticulous attention to detail, makes for a suit that can handle anything you throw at it.

The suit also features a long front entry waterproof zipper, covered by an additional zip-fastened flap, and new Kevlar® knee pads that protect the front leg area.

And like all Santi suits, the E.Lite has two big, solid cargo pockets with bungee strings to attach your accessories, as well as a handy additional zipper-fastened pocket.

Made from a unique Rip Stop Nylon/Butylen/Polyester material (535 g/m2), the Santi E.Lite Drysuit is lightweight yet incredibly durable thanks to its flexible fabric with inter-woven ripstop reinforcement threads in a crosshatch pattern.

So whether you're a professional, technical or cave diver, or a diver just looking for the best gear for your next adventure, the Santi E.Lite has everything you need to take your diving to the next level.

But if you want all the durability of the E.Lite in a more comfortable configuration, the E.Lite+ could do the trick. (The Santi E.Lite+ Drysuit is made of 2 durable fabrics with critical points protected with an E.Lite fabric and the front, sides and back of the legs are made out of a more flexible and soft-to-touch fabric for comfort.

Santi Smart Seal System

Santi drysuits come as a standard with an innovative and comfortable Santi Smart Seals® System. Soft rings allow fast and easy seal exchange for any seal you like or have at hand without needing special tools.

Smart Seals ManualThe Smart Seals system replaces the standard wrist seals attachment in drysuit cuffs and works with any type of wrist seals available on the market – latex or silicone. There is no need for specially designed or dedicated seals, meaning you can carry spares and change a torn seal in the field.

The Smart Seals System also gives the possibility of adding dry gloves using Santi Smart Gloves Ring System (purchase separately).

Santi Neoprene Hood

The suit comes with Santi's Neoprene Hood with an innovative cut made from a very flexible neoprene. The outer shell is covered with jersey, while the inner coating is “smooth skin” type. These 6mm and 8mm hoods adapt perfectly to the shape of the head and are easy to put on and take off, even when wet.

Which Santi drysuit is best for me?

Deciding which Santi Drysuit would be best for you and what the differences are can be confusing. To help you, we have prepared SANTI DRYSUITS COMPARED 2023. Hopefully, this will help, but please CONTACT us if you have any question

How long does it take to get my suit?

We will place your suit order with Santi as soon as you have confirmed and are happy with all the details. We will go through this process as quickly as possible so the suit can be ordered without any delays on our part.

All Santi drysuits are made to order, and therefore estimated production times vary slightly depending on how busy Santi is or if the production period falls within their holiday times.

Santi estimates a 7 to 9 weeks production time for standard-size suits, with or without modifications. The production time is a couple of weeks longer for a completely made-to-measure suit.

Suits must then be checked, shipped from Poland and cleared through customs. This usually takes 1 to 2 weeks.

Unfortunately, due to the fluctuation in demand, neither we nor Santi can guarantee suits within a specific period.

Once we have your suit and we check it, we will email you to make sure you are not away and take receive delivery.
