Company description Sussex Scuba are the owners of Mike`s Waterfront Warehouse in East Grinstead. The business is owned by Derek and Denise Lancaster, both of whom are very experienced divers and trainers.
The business has been established for almost 9 years and has built up a very strong customer base. The Centre has already achieved the prestigious PADI 5 Star status and as such can offer the complete range of products and services. This includes a very well stocked and varied shop, full on site regulator servicing, air and Nitrox to 300bar, tank inspections, dry suit repairs, and now we are able to offer a full range of PADI courses up to Divemaster level, making us the complete centre for all your requirements.
We have recently started our own club which is proving to be very popular with over 40 people attending on a regular basis. So if you are interested dive trips or in joining our club, keep visiting the site or e mail us to get yourself included onto or mailing list.
Our Philosophy
We firmly believe that diving should be fun and safe, with the emphasis on safety. All our instructors have been trained by PADI, the world`s largest diver training agency and have therefore received extensive training in all aspects of diving. The two owners have also had extensive training in other sports for over 10 years each and have worked with children and adults extensively. In addition all instructors have CRB approval thus clearing them to work with children. All classroom training is conducted in our own training school and is always fun and lively. We actively encourage lively interaction and good humour
Our Staff
Meet the team!! The school now has five main instructors or Divemasters, though we can call on others as required
Denise Lancaster
As with all the team at Sussex Scuba Denise’s number one priority is safety quickly followed by fun. Diving is a great sport for everyone regardless of age size or gender and Denise is very keen to encourage this to everyone she trains. She has been diving for several years and once again has dived extensively in the UK, particularly the South Coast along with Turkey, Cyprus, Egypt, Tenerife, and various Caribbean Islands.
Denise is not only very passionate about diving but she also gains a great deal of enjoyment from helping others to develop and enjoy diving. She has been involved in training and coaching for over 10 years. As well as being an Open Water Scuba Instructor, Denise can teach 9 diving specialties, including Nitrox, deep, wreck, and Emergency First Responder training. As with all our instructors and divemasters, she has CRB approval. Denise is particularly keen to work with women as she feels she has the necessary experience and knowledge to work with them with the particular issues they may have
Derek Lancaster
In accordance with the Sussex Scuba philosophy Derek is passionate about safe diving. All diving should be conducted in accordance with best practice, but it should also be fun, otherwise why bother. Derek has been diving for several years both in the UK and overseas. He has experience diving all over the South coast of England and West Wales, along with expeditions to Tenerife, Cyprus, various Caribbean Islands, Turkey, and the Red Sea.
Derek not only has a genuine passion for diving but more importantly he has a passion for teaching and working with people to develop their skills and therefore enjoyment. He has been involved in training and teaching adults and children for over 17 years, prior to that was head of training for a major multi national corporation.
Helen Wooton
Helen has been diving for several years in the UK and overseas and has experienced a wide range of diving environments and challenges. Helen`s motivation is to help people to enjoy themselves while learning, and to give them the skills to ensure that they continue to enjoy, and share her passion for diving.
Location description: Our classroom has now had a complete refit and is now fully equipped with all necessary AV equipment and all other requirements to ensure your course is conducted in comfort. Students are seated around a table rather than lecture room format to encourage more participation and easier note taking
The classroom is designed for just 6 students, thus enabling us to ensure all our courses and classroom sessions are kept small so that we can maintain a good rapport with students and make sure everyone has the personal attention they need to complete the course
Our classroom has now been equipped with the following:
Laptop PC loaded with ALL current training material and concealed projector for minimum clutter. Both are operated by remote control
DVD player and monitor (again with remote control)
Automatic External Defibrillator
Resusci Anne
Giant RDP slate for easier demonstrations
Library of all training materials
Coffee always available !!!

We service all major brands of diving products, provide tank inspections and hydrostatic tests, dry suit and wet suit repairs - we are ready to meet your service needs.
