Can anyone suggest the cheapest but best place to get travel insuramce?
I am only going for a week but am happy to get an anual policy if its a good price and I need it to cover Scuba Diving to my qualified depth.

    Cheap travel insurance can be a false economy as they often have very high excesses and don't normally cover things like scuba diving.

    You will just have to read the policy wording of several policies until you find one that provides the cover that you need.

    as you have specific requirements that a lot of people buying travel insurance don't have, you're possibly going to have to do your own research.

    Here's a good place to start:

    You need a policy that covers you for what you need.
    On TV, Martin always talks about having millions of £'s cover for this or that - but makes the point you probably don't need that amount.
