The course is essentially fun and allows children to have fun safely. We also have at their disposal a whole series of underwater games but also a real underwater scooter!

What is the week planning of a diving stage?

Beginning of the stage: allocation of equipment. The children / teens will then test their basic equipment (fins, mask, snorkel). In turn – at the rate of two children / teenagers maximum per instructor – they will do their diving discover and thus their first bubbles with diving tanks. Before the end of the course, it will be time to put away the equipment and join the locker room. Diving equipment is a material requiring special care to ensure safety. The care and respect of the equipment is also part of the diver’s learning.
