Little Divers
$105-$205
In this course, we learn about different ways to free-dive and explore the underwater world with just our lungs. In both a pool and the open ocean, we will learn how to line dive, rock run, swim through underwater hoops, and work on our breath holds and breathing techniques. We also learn how to be safe divers, buddies and learn the number one rule: never dive alone!
The “Little Divers” course is booked in two separate parts. Our divers complete the pool block first, then can book an ocean block. After completing the pool block, you may register for any ocean block. It does not need to be back to back.
ALL divers ages 5-8 MUST take the pool portion before the ocean sessions regardless of any previous diving courses taken. For divers 8+, you must complete the pool course once every 12 months. If you are in dive club or have taken a course within the past 12 months, you are not required to sign up for the pool portion unless you’d like your child to work on breath hold and diving technique in the pool more.
The best part? Diving doesn’t stop after the course! Once our little divers take the course, they have the option of joining “Dive Club”, where skills and dive-buddy friendships continue to develop! If you’re interested in dive club, please reach out as it is not listed in our “book now” options.

As a certified instructor for the Molchanovs agency, I put all my energy during the courses to make sure safety is a priority! Kids will learn to buddy each other, see safe protocols in the water, and practice being safe in the water themselves!
