Indoor Diving Travel Insurance

What is indoor diving?

Indoor diving is a competitive and recreational sport that involves diving from platforms or springboards into a swimming pool, typically in a controlled environment such as a leisure centre or aquatic facility. This activity focuses on technique, form, and precision, with heights of up to 5 metres being commonly used for training and performance.

Do I need travel insurance for indoor diving?

Yes. Even though indoor diving takes place in a supervised setting, it still involves physical risk. Falls, awkward landings, and collisions with water or the board can result in injury.
