Don’t Forget…Kids can dive too!
PADI Dive Courses for Kids for kids as young as 8 yrs.
Taking the first plunge…
Both Narima Diving and Scubafish (Ko Lanta, Krabi) offer dive training courses to kids. Children as young as 5 can get a glimpse of underwater fun by trying out the scuba gear and have a splash around on the surface of a pool.
Eight year olds can begin to learn diving by taking part in the PADI Bubblemaker program – an introductory course to SCUBA diving in a controlled envionment (2 meters maximum depth).
From 10 years up, kids can participate in the PADI Discover SCUBA program or even apply for the Junior Open Water Certification (12 meters maximum depth). These courses take 1-2 days and are closely supervised by a PADI instructor.
