Summer Snorkelling Courses

Over summer, snorkelling courses are being run (weather permitting) at Goat Island. Bookings are essential. If you haven't tried it yet, why not have a go?
Tony & Jenny Enderby are Goat Island's most experienced snorkel guides and their priority is to keep you safe while teaching you how to snorkel. No experience is necessary. At the end of your course you will gain a PADI snorkelling certificate. Meet at the Goat Island Dive Shop in Leigh at 11am where you will receive your equipment - wetsuit, mask, snorkel and fins. Then it's off to the beach to learn to snorkel safely while enjoying seeing fish in a natural environment. The activity takes around 2 hours (up to an hour in the water). CONTACT US ABOUT OUR SPECIAL PRICE FOR SCHOOL GROUPS. Phone Goat Island Dive now on 0800 348 369 to book onto a snorkelling course.

Thames High School

Tony Enderby talked to students at the Goat Island Marine Reserve for approx. one hour. The creation of the marine reserve was covered, along with changes to the marine life over the past 35 years. Changes to businesses that work in the reserve, benefits to the community and benefits to marine education were all discussed. Students asked excellent questions and were very interested in the information talked about.
