Overview

Looking for a unique, interesting and fun summer camp experience? Then look no further than Scuba Camp! Scuba Camp is a summer program that will introduce campers to the underwater world and teach them to scuba dive. Not only is Scuba Camp a ton of fun, but campers will leave with a skill they can use for the rest of their lives!

In a safe and enjoyable way with their peers, campers will complete the classroom sessions and pool training needed for part one of their scuba certification. This includes learning about dive safety, scuba equipment, being a good buddy, and also about the underwater world, aquatic life, and protecting the environment. Hundreds of campers have come through the program, and it truly is a great way to learn to dive and experience the aquatic environment. Just Add Water supplies all the necessary training materials and dive equipment.

Prerequisites: This course has two prerequisites:

* Be at least 10 years of age.

* Be able to answer No to all questions on the Medical History Form or secure a physician's approval for diving prior to the start of the course.

What is Involved? This course involves:

* Self Study

* Classroom sessions, during which students will review the homework and discuss upcoming pool dives and skills.

* Five pool dives, in which students will see critical skills demonstrated, then have the opportunity to practice under instructor supervision.

* For certification, students must also complete open-water training dives with one of our instructors. (Additional costs and equipment requirements involved.)

Where: Classroom sessions take place either at Just Add Water or one of facilities listed below (which is also where the pool sessions take place). Locally conducted open-water training dives (not included) generally take place at White Star Quarry. (Please contact Just Add Water for more information about Open Water Training Dives.)
