SCUBA Diving Travel Insurance

We've teamed up with two travel insurance companies that offer great deals for divers. If you live in the UK then Essential Travel offers specialist diving travel insurance at a very reasonable rate, with diving cover down to 50 m if you are appropriately qualified.

If you live outside the UK we recommend World Nomads travel insurance, which is designed for travellers who like to take part in adventurous sports and activities. They also offer cover down to 50 m (depending on your country of residence and qualifications). For every World Nomads policy purchased from here, we will donate the equivalent of 5% of the premium price to the Footprints charity project of your choice. See below for more details of World Nomads.

If you require worldwide cover against loss or damage of your diving equipment whilst stored at your home, away from home or in use, check out Harrison Beaumont (for UK residents). They also provide sports accident insurance. Harrison Beaumont have specialised in sport and leisure insurance for over 35 years.
