I would strongly advise against using this company for diving lessons. After the second dive of the advanced open water course the lead instructor expressed concern over my ability to remain neutrally buoyant, instead of providing support or guidance to improve I was simply sent home. I followed this up with an email requesting a refund, but was refused due to policy. The responses to my request came slow and at times outright ignored. The instructors appeared impatient, disinterested, and failed to deliver to the quality advertised on their website.

On every occasion that I have used this company, they have been professional, delivered exceptional service and most importantly when there has been an issue (on every occasion not of their making), they have owned it and resolved it. Why can other companies not be like Andark!

Quality of equipment is really good, even the lower end of their price range. So helpful and answered all my questions, took the time with me to show me a range of products. Great local business, if you're looking for wetsuits for swimming or diving or fishing gear and boat gear they've got it all. And you're supporting local business. Which means local people get employed and the money goes back into the community.

I just finished my open water course and had a great time doing it. Tom and Jamie are nice, patient instructors. The shop was fantastic, the staff agreed to exchange my leaky mask after I'd used it on a couple dives. It is well worth investing in a good mask.

Absolutely love this place. It's my go to open water/winter swimming venue. Last week I got to swim with tiny ducklings. The water is fairly clear, I've never thought I don't want to get in. The changing facilities are good, it is open plan changing - no cubicles. There are also warm showers and a shop which sells coffee tea etc. As a member of the Swanwick Seals, I have been able to use the sauna facility over winter which is amazing. Highly recommend this place for swimming. I do not dive so can not give a review in that respect. However, it seems incredibly popular with the diving community. There are always divers getting ready to get in as we swimmers get out.
