A popular scuba diving centre is opening a second site after experiencing success at Liverpool's Princes Dock.
Palaemon Divers operate a five star PADI dive centre in Liverpool, which offers training and scuba experiences within the dock itself. It also runs a scuba club which sees divers take monthly litter pick dips, as well as regular trips around the UK and abroad.
Those looking to expand their diving and experience skills can try diving experiences from a beginner level, right through to professional level courses. Now, the team is expanding.

Palaemon Divers' second site will open a short drive from the city centre, in nearby Warrington. Occupying two floors, the new dive centre will be the only scuba centre in the town.
It'll be complete with an in-house compressor to provide air fills to both members and the public, as well as a classroom, workshop and fully stocked retail scuba floor. The new site will boast a second pool night for those new to the sport, while experienced divers can jump in and try it out or practice their skills.
With a pool night already taking place on Wednesdays in Speke, and the second pool night starting on a Tuesday in the Warrington area, Palaemon aims to offer more access to training nights. After opening the site in Princes Dock in January 2022, the site has trained and introduced hundreds of new divers from Merseyside to the sport.
It's also popular for its regular scuba kids clubs (for children aged eight+) in the pool and the Docks, as well as numerous team building exercises for companies in and around Merseyside. Now, the team is looking to introduce Warrington to the same.
Director Leanne Clowes said: "We are really excited to open our second dive centre after the huge success of our Princes Dock site in Liverpool, and can not wait to introduce the Warrington community to the amazing sport that is scuba diving.
"We have been looking for a while where our second site would open, and we have had our minds set on Warrington the entire time, so [we’re] really happy to find our perfect second centre at Evans House Business Centre, Norman Street WA2 in a previously converted micro brewery site."
Palaemon Divers Warrington is expected to open fully in January 2023, but those wishing to make enquiries about available courses starting in the new year are able to do so now.
David Evans, director of Evans House Business Centre, added: "We can’t wait to have Palaemon Divers on board, they will be joining an impressive number of diverse companies that call Evans House Business Centre their base - from an Escape Room, to specialist fitness suites, craft workshops and a number of trades. Evans House Business Centre really is an excellent facility to visit."
