New to the group - Hello from London

Hello, I am new to the group and am looking to find information on where to get started with recreational freediving in and around London (UK). Is there perhaps anyone in the forum from London who could point me in the right direction?

Cheers... I cannot wait to find a pool and some buddies and get started..

Welcome to DB! I believe there are freedivers who meet at Richmond and Crystal Palace, i'm sure someone will introduce themselves from one of these venues!

Re: New to the group - Hello from London

Kybele,

Welcome to DB!

There are numerous clubs around London and all are very friendly. You can find a good list of clubs available at the BFA site:

British Freediving Association - Clubs: BFA Affiliated Clubs

Apart from Richmond and Crystal Palace that have already been mentioned there are also the DeeperBlue.net Club in Streatham or NoTanx in New Malden. Full details of all on the BFA page.
