A continuation of the SCUBA Explorer program: Unforgettable aquatic adventures for kids – Go underwater and discover the wonder of Snorkel, Scuba, Mermaid, and Freediving Explorer programs. The mission of SSI Explorers is simple: To involve children in scuba diving, freediving, snorkeling, and mermaid so they can experience the excitement of water exploration!
Scuba diving opens up a part of the world that few get to explore, and boat diving opens it up even further by taking us to places that we cannot get to from shore. These places can include reefs and reef walls, deep diving opportunities, and remote locations. In the Boat Explorer program kids will learn how to identify at least three types of dive boats and how they differ from each other, plan and manage a boat dive trip using a Boat Checklist procedure. Through simulated boat dives, kids will learn to manage equipment on a boat, practice safety procedures specific to boat trips, as well as how to safely and effectively enter and exit the water while diving from a boat. Boat diving skills will be useful as our young divers begin to explore the ocean, away from the shore!
Required equipment: Students must provide their own swimsuit, mask, snorkels and fins. All other equipment including tanks, regulators and buoyancy compensator will be provided.
Additional information: Participants must be at least 8 years of age and must be comfortable in water and be able to maintain their buoyancy in water too deep to stand in. Must sign waiver and must have parent or guardian-signed waiver.
Schedule and availability vary based on the child’s and instructors schedule, number of participants, and the SCUBA Explorer session being conducted.
