Groupe Subaquatique de Passy

The Groupe Subaquatique de Passy (GSP) is an associative leisure diving club located in Paris, specifically in the 15th arrondissement. With a community of approximately 75 members, known as 'Passyonautes', the club fosters an environment of pleasure, safety, and conviviality centered around a shared passion for diving, even within an urban setting like Paris. Their core activities include introductory dives (baptêmes), training courses ranging from N1 to Moniteur Fédéral 1 (MF1), all supervised by a dedicated team focused on participant safety. Beyond scuba diving, the GSP also offers introductions to freediving, PSP (Premiers Secours en Plongée - First Aid in Diving), fin swimming, and organizes around five natural environment outings per year.

The associative experience at GSP extends beyond the underwater activities, promoting moments of sharing and camaraderie among its members. These social gatherings feature parties, picnics, 'apéros' (aperitifs), dinners in Paris, and even exhibitions on the sea and marine life. The club is certified by recognized bodies such as SSI, CMAS/FFESSM, and TDI, offering a comprehensive range of courses, from Discover Scuba Diving to the Instructor Development Course, along with Advanced Open Water, Boat Diving, and Moniteur Fédéral certifications. Its headquarters are situated at Piscine Mourlon, 19 Rue Gaston de Caillavet, 75015 Paris.

The Groupe Subaquatique de Passy boasts facilities including showers, lockers, a bar, and accommodation for its members. They also provide equipment rental, a dive shop, and air fills, including nitrox. To facilitate training and practice, the club has its own swimming pool with three weekly sessions and a monthly dive pit session. Furthermore, they offer airport transfer services for those needing assistance. The GSP warmly welcomes new members and encourages interested individuals to visit their website or attend one of their meetups to experience firsthand the warm atmosphere and passion for diving that defines the club.
