Childrens PADI Courses Christmas 2019

Whilst we are all stuck in Lockdown 2.0, the Dive centre can still offer you vouchers for your young diving adventurer.

Just call or email the shop, we can do this all digitally, it might just take a day or so to get it finalised as we are not actually in the shop all of the time.

If you have a youngster in the family who would love learn to dive, we can offer Childrens PADI Courses specific to their age.
These would make amazing Christmas presents. Give the Gift of Adventure!!

CHILDRENS PADI COURSES

The Bubblemaker Session is a chance to see if they like the experience of breathing underwater and if this is something they would like to do again, because it’s always better to have a trial before booking the complete course.

Conducted by one of our highly qualified Instructors in our onsite heated pool, the intrepid explorers will experience the exhilarating sensations of breathing underwater and being completely weightless in our totally safe environment.

 

The PADI Seal Team takes them through their first few diving skills in a controlled safe and fun course.

At Ocean View we turn 8-11 year old novice water babies into highly trained underwater Aquanauts. This is great to do with your friends but is also a fantastic way to make some new ones.

This is a pool-only experience, and is conducted by certified, trained PADI Professionals. These adventures teach your young explorers excellent skills and sets some fun and unique underwater challenges.

 

The PADI Master Seal Team course allows PADI Seals to continue diving, learning lots of new skill during 10 fun Aquamissions, and they build on their previous experience.

This is a pool-only experience and is conducted by certified, trained PADI Professionals. These adventures teach your young explorers excellent skills and sets some fun and unique underwater challenges.
