Customer comments...

Hello A-1,

Sarah and Kelly had a wonderful time on their dives today. They really had a positive experience for their first open water dives. Doug and I were so pleased about the whole morning. The girls said they loved seeing the fish swim so close to them up close and personal.

I have been around alot of scuba instructors. You have an amazing ability to welcome people to the world of diving. From my first visit to your shop, to todays dives you have been friendly, professional, encouraging and a lot of fun.

On behalf of my whole family I want to thank you for welcoming Kelly and Sarah to Scuba diving.

Christine H.

Who can be a PADI Seal?

The PADI Seal Team is a program for children eight years of age andolder that keeps kids diving until they turn 10 and can take the PADI Junior Scuba Diver or Junior Open Water Diver program. Your kids canjump straight into the PADI Seal Team program or start afterexperiencing our Bubblemaker program. The PADI Seal Team provides a
structured learning environment combined with enjoyable scuba activities. This stimulating program appeals to kids who crave adventure, seek the challenge of learning new skills and want to gain an appreciation for preserving the aquatic realm. They also earn credit towards their Jr. Open Water Diver certification.

 

What do PADI Seals do?

PADI Seals learn the basics of scuba diving through several Aquamissions. There are 15 missions, but after the first five, participants become PADI Seal Team Members. In the first Aquamission, Seals learn how to breathe underwater, learn about their air gauge and practice hand signals. In Aquamission #2, they build on their scuba skills (practicing regulator skills, becoming more confident divers and great PADI Seal Team buddies). The third Aquamission includes more exciting skills (mask clearing, octopus breathing and hand signals). In the fourth
Aquamission, Seals learn what it's like to to be weightless (bouyancy) - just like an Astronaut in space! Aquamission #5 is the last step in becoming a PADI Seal Team Member. In the last Aquamission, we review what the Seals have learned, and add some fun surface skills (Snorkeling)!

 

The adventure continues...

Our underwater space station, underwater wreck and many other adventures wait PADI Seals after they complete their first five aquamissions. Seal Team Members complete 10 specialty recreational and educational Aquamissions to become Master Seal Team Members. Check out our Master Seal Team program.
