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.

Ocean View are running the INON Level One Underwater photography course on Saturday 1st and Sunday 2nd February 2020 here at the Dive Centre.

INON UK’s Level One underwater photography course is considered the most comprehensive beginner’s to intermediate program available. It is designed to show you how to take high quality underwater photographs consistently. Our INON UK instructors do this by showing you simple rules to follow that remove the element of luck from taking pictures under the water. It is suitable for divers using underwater compact, compact system and DSLR cameras.

INON UK’s Level One underwater photography course shows you how to take great pictures ‘in camera’. If, like many divers, you thought you would always have to spend ages ‘fixing’ your underwater pictures later in Photoshop, this course will change your mind. The INON UK Level One course blends learning essential theory with mastering practical skills topped off with developing hands on underwater photography experience. As a minimum the INON UK Level One underwater photography course includes six theory lessons and two training dives. Each training dive is followed by an extensive debrief of each students achievements.

Build your confidence and learn the skills you need to step up if an emergency situation were to ever happen by taking the Emergency First Response course.

Learn how to turn yourself into the best buddy, increase your safety, recognise problems before they occur

Our next Emergency First Response course will be running on Saturday 11th January 2020.

First aid and CPR are good skills for anyone to learn, especially those involved in adventure sports – just in case. The Emergency First Response course meets the necessary First Aid training required as part of the PADI Rescue Diver course.

If a member of your family was taken ill, or a fellow diver had an emergency, you will be able to step up and help them, knowing you can help those you care about is a reassuring feeling. This course is open to anyone, you don’t need to be a diver to need First Aid skills.

As a pre-requisite to the Rescue Diver course, you need a valid First Aid certification, taken within the last 24 months, the Emergency First Response course meets the necessary First Aid training required as part of the PADI Rescue Diver course.

If you are a rescue diver who’s First Aid course was over 2 years ago, you will need to do an update, so why not join us on the next E.F.R course.

As part of our PADI Specialty programme in 2020, we will be running the PADI Emergency O2 Provider Specialist Course on Saturday 11th January.

Knowing when and how to administer oxygen means you will have the ability to help other divers that may have the need of assistance.

Being able to recognise illnesses in your fellow divers that might require emergency oxygen is a wonderful skill to have.

You’ll learn about dive injuries, different types of emergency oxygen equipment and safety considerations when using oxygen.
