Scuba Explorers
Ascuba Venture has a new program for kids ages 8-12, who are interested in SCUBA and the underwater world. It is called Scuba Explorers ! The Scuba Explorers are introduced to SCUBA in a open water simulator environment where they learn several of the skills that our Basic Open Water Divers learn. Learning how to scuba dive is no longer limited to the adults! All of our Explorers Classes are taught only by instructors specifically trained in the Explorers program.
Explorers Club!
The Scuba Explorers Program is not just a one time class that your child enrolls in. Once they graduate all of the levels for the basic program they can come back and take Explorers Specialties! Numerous specialties are offered such as Night Explorers , Rescue Explorers , Maze Explorers , Shark Explorers , Navigation Explorers , and many, many more. They can even make it to different ranks such as Advanced Explorers and Master Explorers based on how many specialties they have !
What do they do?
The Scuba Explorers training is broken into 5 different levels that can be spread out or done in one of our Explorers Camps. The kids are taught the skills and knowledge they need to become safe and successful divers in a fun yet controlled environment. As your child completes each level they are awarded pieces of gear that will be theirs to keep at the completion of the course.
Session 1: Red Explorers
Kids demonstrate their swimming skills and learn how to snorkel with a mask, snorkel and fins. They receive their Explorers kit and their snorkel!
Session 2: White Explorers
Our would be divers are introduced to actual diving equipment. They start learning the basics, what are these things for and how do we use them? Explorers get to go into the open water simulator with equipment for the first time. They receive their dive mask and mouthpieces at this level.
Session 3: Blue Explorers
Explorers learn new diving exercises in the open water simulator such as how to float in the water. Explorers get fitted and receive their dive suit!
Session 4: Silver Explorers
Children play games underwater while wearing diving equipment to increase their comfort and practice the diving techniques learned so far. The kids get their fins this session.
Session 5: Demo Explorers
Your proud children are able to "teach" diving to parents, siblings, and friends by doing demonstrations of the skills they've learned. Now they are able to receive their Explores ID, T-shirt and membership into the Explorers Club!
