diving in aquariums

[helyvic22]

I know this may sound contraversial, but I am looking for an aquarium in or towards the south of england, that allows you to dive with the fish. I have found a couple way up north - scotland and ellsmere port, but they are a bit far really.

Any help greatly appreciated.

PS have just qualified as an OD

I've dived at Ellesmere Port. IIRC, we were not allowed to swim at all, but were hugely over-weighted and told to walk along the bottom.
It was an interesting experience, but not cheap. You could get a week out of season in the Canaries for that price.
Dare I ask why, as a qualified diver, you want to do this?
