Bubble Maker
⦁ Age: from 8 years to 10 years
Duration: 1 hour
Bubblemaker is as fun as it sounds – a chance for kids to blow bubbles by scuba diving. Children who are at least 8 years old can use scuba gear to breathe underwater and swim around in shallow water.
No prior experience is necessary but written parental approval is required.
Bubblemakers get a chance to:
⦁ Experience scuba diving under the direct care and supervision of a PADI Professional Instructor.
⦁ Take their first breaths underwater in a pool shallower than 2 metres.
⦁ Learn about and use scuba diving equipment made for children – not adults.
⦁ Have lots of fun.
Seal Team
⦁ Age: from 8 years to 10 years
Duration 2 – 3 days
The PADI Seal Team is for young scuba divers who are looking for action-packed fun in a pool by completing exciting Aqua Missions. Do cool stuff in the pool, and meet friends.
No prior experience is necessary but written parental approval is required.
⦁ The PADI Seal Team program teaches responsibility and respect for the aquatic realm. It’s broken into two parts.
Part one, AquaMissions 1 – 5, covers basic scuba diving skills, such as breathing underwater, clearing a mask of water, recovering a regulator and swimming around experiencing the sensation of being weightless. Each session takes about an hour.
⦁ Part two, 10 specialty AquaMissions, includes adventures like creature identification, search and recovery diving, and skin diving.
Junior Open Water

Children from 10 years upwards can gain scuba certification through the Junior Open Water Diver course. The content of the PADI Junior Open Water Course is exactly the same as the Open Water course taught to adults, including the theory component.
