Why Portland?

We’re located on the Isle of Portland (in Dorset) because Portland has been one of the most popular scuba diving locations in the United Kingdom even before we set up operations here back in the year 2000.

On one side, we’re minutes away from the sheltered waters of Portland Marina and Harbour, while on the other, it’s just a brief walk to reach our famous scuba diving destination Chesil Cove and start of the 16-mile-long Chesil Beach.  

Portland’s location makes it ideal for scuba diving, freediving, snorkelling and other surface water sports activities. 

Check out how many wrecks we have around here by clicking on Scimitar Diving's Wreck & Dive Sites chart!

Alongside dive clubs, many instructors and dive schools travel here to train and offer scuba diving certification ranging from open water diver to mixed-gas tech diving or rebreather diving levels.

Whether you’re doing a boat dive from Portland Marina or Castletown or a shore dive at Chesil Cove, Portland is well known for offering many possibilities: Reef diving to wreck diving and night diving, underwater photography or underwater videography. Anything other than cave diving is possible here.

Likely being the best-stocked diving shop in the UK, at Underwater Explorers we offer in-store scuba diving equipment advice and sales, as well as gas fills, to locals and visitors (read About Us).

But... If you’re googling “scuba diving shop near me” like some, look no further, there's DirDirect online.

Here at DirDirect, we list our cutting-edge equipment for worldwide delivery and we’ve got you covered whatever your level of diving: We’re your local dive store wherever you are in the world.

All that with over 20 years of experience especially in technical diving, from training to equipment, advice and sales.

The Apeks XL4+ Stage Regulator Set is a high-performance option for those technical divers serious about weight savings. 

Updated for 2023 with a second stage heat exchanger, the Apeks XL4+
 Regulator is compact and lightweight. It is suitable for diving in all environments, including cold water locations. Its design and low weight help reduce jaw fatigue on long dives.

Apeks XL4+ Stage Regulator Set includes

  • XL4+ DIN First Stage
  • XL4 Second Stage
  • Rubber 40" stage regulator hose

Over-balanced First Stage

Break through, innovative over-moulded first-stage endcap and environmental diaphragm help to prevent ice build-up that can cause first stage free flow in extreme circumstances. Also protects the Apeks XL4+ First Stage Regulator from impact damage.

The large surface area heat exchanger diaphragm clamp helps increase the gas temperature inside the first stage, improving cold water performance.

Unique over-balanced diaphragm design – as the diver descends, the over-balancing feature allows the medium pressure gas in the hose to increase at a faster rate than ambient. This results in superior performance at depth.

  • 2 HP ports and 4 MP ports
  • Environmentally sealed
  • Over balanced diaphragm design
  • DIN fitting

XL4+ Second Stage

The Apeks XL4+ second stage regulator is a compact and lightweight. Its design and low weight help reduce jaw fatigue on long dives.

Comfobite mouthpiece has a unique bridge that fits across the upper palate. It does not require bite pressure to stay in place. Re-useable mouthpiece clip makes it simple to change mouthpieces in the field.

  • High performance pneumatically balanced lever operated poppet valve.
  • Large, over moulded self-flushing and controllable purge button.
  • Ergonomic Venturi lever disrupts the airflow inside the 2nd stage to prevent accidental free flows at the surface. 
  • Standard metallic hose connection for interchangeability.
  • Durable and flexible rubber exhaust tee provides excellent bubble diversion.
  • UV inhibitors to help prevent discolouration of the white materials.
