Fun Diving for Kids

Fun diving for Kids. Kids can learn to dive too and are often braver than their parents when it comes to taking the plunge and trying scuba diving. The kids can either learn in the pool (Bubblemaker – half a day) such as ages 8 to 9 years old or if they are 10 years old and above they can either do the PADI Discover scuba diving experience (1 day course) PADI Junior Scuba diver course (2 day certification course) or The PADI Junior Open water course (3 day certification course) 

The Bubblemaker course is an introductory course aimed at kids who want to try scuba diving in a safe and controlled environment. The course is a perfect introduction for those who are too young for the PADI Junior Open Water Diver course or Discover Scuba Diving but would still like to try scuba diving. If the kids are 8 years old or older then we can take them diving in a swimming pool

All training is done in a swimming pool under the watchful eye of our very experienced PADI Instructors here at Real Divers. We welcome you as the parents to come along and join in the fun of scuba diving in a swimming pool.

PADI Bubblemaker Experience- 2,900 Baht per person (group discounts)

PADI Discover scuba diving

Key PADI standards – Age 10 years and above

Our typical PADI Discover scuba diving trip starts at 9am-ish, we are back after the diving/snorkeling activities at 2.30pm.   

We run these trips from our 12 metre speedboats to one of the Pattaya coral islands. In a shallow beach bay the kids learn to breathe under water and then once they are comfortable we demonstrate the skills of regulator clearing, mask clearing and a few buoyancy and finning skills and then the Instructors take them on a shallow coral dive.

We then have some lunch and refreshments and make a 2nd coral dive in the afternoon. There are no skills to do before this dive, the Instructors will take them on a shallow coral dive (average depth 6 metres) and explore the reef. There’s lots to see on the dives such as colourful angel and butterfly fish plus puffer fish and a great chance to see large Hawksbill turtles.
