Welcome to our Web site...

....The home of the Eltham Otters here on the world wide web...

Our club has been established since late 1978 when several members of a local Diving club got together to form a branch of the National Snorkellers Club. Over the years much has changed but the ethos of the club remains- to give an opportunity to youngsters to learn and experience the excitement that is the sport of Snorkel Diving.

We hope you enjoy browsing our pages and hope to see you again in the near future.

Congratulations to St Marys School in Eltham

whose pupils attended the 'Try Snorkelling' events during February.

We invited the pupils from both years 3 and 4 up to our club so they may experience wearing the basic equipment of Mask, Finns and Snorkel and receive some instruction in there use.

We were very proud to have such well mannered young people visit our club who showed some excellent abilities in the water environment.

We look forward to working with the school again in the future.

Our Club used the old Eltham Pools for most of the time it has been around but last year we had to move to the new Eltham Centre when they Local Authority chose to close the old pools. The new facilities unfortunately do not meet all our requirements and we have been looking around to see if there are other pools that may be able to host the club. We are actively pursuing this and will report back to the web site as soon as we have some news.

If you would like some more information with regards to the move then please email us at the link below.
