✽ What We Offer
SSI Kids Diving Programs:
SSI Explorers Program
Designed especially for kids aged 8–9, the SSI Explorers Program is a fantastic way to introduce young adventurers to SCUBA diving in a safe and playful setting. It’s a great option for beginner SCUBA diving for children who are curious about the ocean but just a tad too young for the Junior Open Water Diver Course.
The day starts with an interactive theory session led by a certified instructor, who keeps everything fun and easy to understand. Kids then head to our custom-built pool for a hands-on diving experience using real SCUBA gear in a shallow, secure environment.
For those who want more, there’s an option to add a shallow ocean dive at a calm, sheltered site — always under the close supervision of an instructor.
SSI Junior Open Water Diver Course
For kids aged 10–14, the Junior Open Water Diver Course is the first full step into real SCUBA diving.
Before arrival, students complete digital learning online at their own pace, so they’re well-prepared and confident.
Day 1: Confined water training in our dedicated dive pool. Kids learn to use their equipment and practice essential SCUBA skills in a safe and controlled space.
Day 2: After a morning theory review, students take their first two open water dives at shallow, calm dive sites around Blue Dream's bay under the supervision of an experienced instructor.
Day 3: The adventure continues with two more open water dives, completing their training and earning their Junior Open Water certification.
