Home Scuba Scuba Rangers for Kids

Kids, you can learn to dive!kidsinblob_pc

Have you ever wondered what sea turtles eat for dinner or what it is like to float like an astronaut in space? Did you know that of the 350 or so shark species, about 80% grow to less than 5 feet, they are not able to hurt people, and are rarely seen? As a Scuba Ranger, you not only learn what it is like to be weightless in the water, but, all sorts of cool facts about the oceans.

Learning to scuba dive is easier than you think and we have a program specifically designed for active kids ages 7 - 10. You should know how to swim and be comfortable in the water

Specially trained Scuba Ranger Instructors will teach you how to breathe underwater and how to swim with fins and explore the pool. You will master skills like removing water from your mask and removing, replacing your regulator underwater, and neutral buoyancy.
