WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
Knowledge Development
All participants will be given access to PADI E-Learning to work through at their own pace before the camp starts. The morning of each day is typically spent in the classroom. We will watch videos, go over some theory, and play some games to help participants learn about the different concepts of scuba diving!
Kids under 13 will require parental consent prior to accessing the E-Learning platform
Confined Water
Have you ever wondered what it's like to float effortlessly like an astronaut? Beyond learning basic scuba skills, there are some cool stuff in the pool, meeting friends, sharing in the adventure of the underwater world. Participants will find themselves navigating through hoola hoops, and playing underwater frisbee. The final day will be spent at one of our local beaches, we'll explore tide pools, learn about our local marine life, and do a mini beach cleanup.

Each camp, we have several participants that do exceptionally well, and are ready to complete their ocean dives!
Safety is our priority! So it's important to note, that not all kids will be ready to move on to the ocean. The instructor evaluates the readiness of each participant based on a combination of mastery of skills underwater, understanding of safety procedures, ability to follow instructions, decision making skills, and maturity level.
Students that aren't quite ready, are encouraged to either come back for another camp next year, or come back to the pool and work on some skills with an instructor. In some instances it is a case of not being emotionally mature enough, so the instructor may recommend waiting until they are a bit older.
Junior Open Water Certification
What is a Junior Open Water Certification? This is a PADI certification that will allow them to dive anywhere in the world! Kids ages 10-11 will be limited to 40 ft and need to dive with an instructor or divemaster, Kids ages 12-14 are limited to 60 ft and will need to dive with an adult. Once the kids turn 15, their certification is automatically upgraded to a full Open Water Certification.
The cost to complete their certification is $349.95 and would include an additional 2 days of diving (4 ocean dives). We run these on a semi-private basis, with no more than 2 students per instructor. We have some set dates available the following week of the camp, otherwise they can be completed anytime within one year of completing the camp.
Alternatively if they do successfully complete the camp, we can provide referral paperwork for them to complete their dives in the tropics through any PADI Dive Center (within 1 year of completing their camp).
All divers must be able to complete the PADI Medical and obtain physicians clearance if required, prior to completing any in-water training
