The extremely popular Cave is returning to the GO Diving Show this weekend, and will be joined for the first time by an interactive bouldering wall.
The Cave has been a firm favourite from the very first GO Diving Show, and experienced cave divers have waxed lyrical about how the installation is the perfect introduction to caving or cave-diving.
Prepare to don a helmet and kneepads and venture into the darkness of the 30-metre cave-system. But be warned – it does get quite narrow in places, it is pitch black, and there might well be a ballpool to fall into halfway through!
For 2024, the team behind The Cave has also brought another fun attraction along – an interactive bouldering wall. Many diving locations offer some spectacular bouldering and climbing experiences, and it is the perfect opportunity to show off your Spiderman skills to your fellow divers!
The GO Diving Show
The GO Diving Show returns to the NAEC at Stoneleigh Park, near Kenilworth, on 2-3 March, this time taking in all three halls and expanding to 10,000 sq metres of exhibition space.
As well as the Main Stage, there are also dedicated stages for UK diving, technical diving, underwater photography and inspirational tales, plus the ever-popular Cave, the giant trydive pool. and, new for 2024, an interactive bouldering wall and a dual VR diving simulator so you and your ‘buddy' can venture off ‘underwater' together, all scattered among an ever-increasing array of stands from tourist boards, manufacturers, training agencies, resorts, liveaboards, dive centres, retailers and much more.
