Icelandic Sportdiving Club (SKFI),
a club of approx 40 to 50 recreational divers. The club was established in 1982. We have our club house, compressor, regular meetings and we organize bi-weekly dive trips to various spots using chartered boats (on cost shared bases) or diving from shore. Most of us are NAUI certified but some hold CMAS, PADI or commercial certifications. Within the club there are two NAUI and one PADI instructors who offer dive courses. In addition to diving the club has been active in promoting the interest of Icelandic sportdivers in general by participating in work on new laws and regulations concerning sportdiving in Iceland and regulations for diving in Icelands national parks. We emphasize safety in diving and require our members to follow standards in training and equipment and to follow safe diving practices. We do most of our diving off the coast of Iceland or in inland freshwater canyons but during the last three years groups of members have made dive trips to Negril Jamaica in late winter. More info on our club can be found (in english also) on the clubs homepage at /www.itn.is/~bragi/scuba/enskdive.html.
