March 2022.

We are organising a trip to Y40 – a 41 metre deep pool located about 40 miles from Venice, Italy.

This is a great social weekend to one of the world’s most beautiful locations with some diving. It’s a great trip for non-diving partners and divers alike. We did a trial run for it in March this year and had a great time – see Facebook photos.

Y40 was until recently the world’s deepest indoor pool (there is now a deeper one in Poland – but it’s not Venice 😉). The pool is filled with heated thermal spring water to a balmy 32-34 degs C. There are snacks and a café on site, as well as viewing into the pool area. The pool itself has a 10 metre section with artificial caves, tunnels and pipes for divers to explore.

North London Scuba Club Committee will manage the Y40 booking process. We will need a deposit payment up front of £35 to secure the Y40 booking.

Total estimated cost of trip: £230
