Started planning for 2021? BSAC's year planner is now available to download!

BSAC annually produces a year-view wall planner with the Spring and Neap tides which is free to download in a variety of sizes.

With the tides for the coming 12 months, the planner can be used to map out both yours and your club’s dives for the new diving year.

Many thanks to BSAC's Technical Advisor Mike Rowley who kindly provides the neaps and springs chart for us each year.

The PDF can be printed off in either A4 or A3, perfect for the dive club noticeboard or the planner can be downloaded in larger sizes – A2 and A1 – which can be sent to your local printers or copy shop if you need a large size.

If you want to use an editable PDF but don't have the software then you can use free websites like this to personalise your year planner.

Add the tides to your digital calendar too!
