Pioneered and funded by local enthusiasts in the late 1960s and early 1970s, the Newry & Mourne Sub Aqua Club started with a series of shore dives in and around Carlingford Lough. These dives often involved a long swim to reach sites and were usually carried out by single divers as there was not enough equipment to implement a Buddy system....Today we have 2: diesel & 2: petrol high powered ribs and our Technical Team has a group of 8 highly trained Trimix Divers, capable of diving to depths of 100, plus meters. Our Club was one of the first clubs in Ireland with a dedicated Nitrox Compressor Unit. (ie a Compressor unit with the capability of producing air fills with a greater oxygen content than that of 21%.)
