Enjoy getting dressed up in fancy gear at night? PADI has some suggestions for spooky scuba diving events this Hallowe’en
Not too fussed about trick-or-treating? Or prefer not to be home when the neighbourhood youths come calling to demand financial treats in return for not tricking your house and car out with eggs?
From fang-tastic fancy dress prizes to underwater pumpkin carving and PADI night diver specialty courses, here are some substantially better UK scuba diving alternatives for Hallowe’en this year!
Oyster Diving’s Spooktacular Night Dive – Dive if You Dare!
Date: 31 October
Time: 5 pm
Get ready for a frightful underwater adventure like no other! Oyster Diving’s Spooktacular Night Dive is back, and it’s happening at the eerily beautiful Mercers Lake.
This Halloween, suit up, dive into the mysterious depths, and discover what lurks beneath the surface. The dive kicks off at 5 pm sharp, so grab your ghoulish gear and prepare to make some ghostly bubbles! Don’t forget—there are fang-tastic prizes for the best-dressed divers, so come in your spookiest costumes.
Once you’ve braved the dive, warm up by the firepits with devilishly good hot food, swap spooky stories, and soak in the haunting atmosphere. Even if diving isn’t your thing, you’re still invited to enjoy the creepy camaraderie! But beware, spots are disappearing faster than ghosts—book early if you dare!
