Ages 12 to 16

This camp is a full day camp for kids ages 12 to 16 who wish to get SCUBA certified. The SCUBA certification is a National Association of Underwater Instructors (NAUI) program and if the student completes the academics, pool skills and open water dives, they will be SCUBA certified to dive with an adult, as a Jr. SCUBA Diver. This is a fairly intense program that includes online learning, a classroom (academic) portion, swimming skills, snorkeling skills and SCUBA diving skills presented over the first 3 days. If the students are comfotable and successful they will then go the what is called the open water portion of the training where they will do 4-6 dives in the local quarry. There is no guarantee of completion during the camp but we will make every effort and opportunity for them to come back to complete the training at no additional cost.
