Why it is worth renting diving equipment from Lagona Divers – instead of buying it yourself
Whether to buy your own diving equipment or hire it locally is a question that almost everyone asks themselves at some point. The decision depends largely on how often and where you dive – and what your priorities are. For holiday divers in particular, there are many good reasons to rely on the well-maintained hire equipment from Lagona Divers.
Holiday divers: renting is often the smart choice
If you mainly go into the water on holiday – perhaps once or twice a year – investing in a complete set of diving equipment is rarely worthwhile. Here is an overview of why:
1. No high acquisition costs
A complete set of equipment (jacket, regulator, wetsuit, computer, mask, fins, etc.) can easily cost £2,000 or more. This is hardly economical for occasional users.
2. Maintenance? Not an issue for you
Regulators must be serviced annually, even if they have hardly been used. This obligation does not apply to rental equipment – at Lagona Divers, everything is serviced regularly and professionally.
3. Safety through tested equipment
Our rental sets are not only well maintained, but also technically up to date. You can concentrate fully on your dives – we’ll take care of the rest.
And if something doesn’t fit, you can simply get another one.
4. No stress with luggage and airlines
Anyone who has ever lugged equipment across half of Europe knows that it’s nerve-wracking – and often results in excess baggage fees. With us, everything is ready and waiting for you right at the diving centre.
Frequent divers: Mixing possible – but not essential
Is diving more than just a holiday hobby for you? Then it may make sense to own some of the equipment yourself. Nevertheless, there are a number of reasons to use rental equipment on holiday:
1. Save on travel costs
Even as an experienced diver, you don’t need to bring everything with you. Many people use their own jacket and computer, but hire regulators or suits locally – depending on airline regulations and destination.
2. Always top-maintained equipment
Even if you love your own equipment, if it hasn’t been used for a long time, it’s often not in the best condition. With us, you get perfectly maintained equipment – without compromise.
3. Flexibility and convenience
Want to go diving on the spur of the moment or try out some equipment? At Lagona Divers, you always have access to modern equipment – including advice and replacements if something doesn’t fit.
4. Diving safety is paramount
Our experienced SSI instructors pay attention to every detail. The equipment is regularly checked and replaced – an important advantage, especially when it comes to regulators and jackets.
Conclusion: Hiring saves money, reduces stress and increases safety.
Whether you are an occasional or frequent diver, there are many good reasons to rely on professional rental equipment on site. Not only do you save on purchase and maintenance costs, but you also travel more relaxed. Above all, you can concentrate on what diving is really about: enjoyment, relaxation and safety underwater.
